Description
Model TT809 is a 2-wire temperature transmitter for RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) thermometers. The
TemptranTM converts the RTD's signal into a 4 to 20 mA current. The current changes according to the range in
which the Temptran is calibrated: 4 mA at the lowest temperature of the range, rising to 20 mA at the top of the
range. The leads that supply power also carry the current signal. The TT809 is FIELD RANGEABLE; the Zero and
Span are adjustable over -50 to 212°F and 30 to 320°F respectively allowing for re-ranging by means of a simple
calibration process. The gasketed metal housing provides excellent weather resistance and is easily installed using
the attached mounting brackets. Request Minco Application Aid 15 for more general information on transmitters.

Installation
Installation of the TT809 consists of mounting the transmitter and connecting it to power. The housing is mounted
using two fold-out tabs on the bottom. Power and RTD wires are connected to the transmitter by 4 screw
terminals located near the edge of the circuit board (Figure 1). The transmitter’s power and RTD connections are
designed for non-polar hook-up, so polarity is not important. Locate the Temptran near the RTD in an area where
the ambient temperature stays between -40 and 85 C (-40 and 185 F). If calibration is necessary, set dip-
switches before sliding transmitter circuit board into metal housing (See Transmitter Ranging section).
1. Connect a 1000 ohm RTD to the “RTD” terminals as shown below (Figure 1).
2. Connect a DC source, not exceeding 35 VDC, to the “PWR” terminals.
Wiring Diagram
Figure 1
Power Supply
DC power supply requirements are determined by the TT809 minimum voltage requirement and voltage drop
across the load resistor and installation lead wires.
Example: The transmitter requires 8.5 Volts minimum. A typical 250 ohm load resistor drops 5.0 Volts @ 20 mA.
Allowing a margin of 0.5 Volts for the supply permits 25 ohms of lead wire resistance for remote installation.
Totaling these, we get a minimum power supply requirement of 14 VDC.
Using a 24 VDC power supply will take care of nearly all installations, but the TT809 will operate with as much as
35 VDC.

Calibration Procedure
1. Connect the equipment as shown below (Figure 2) substituting a resistance decade box, with resolution of at
least 0.01 ohm, in place of the RTD.

2. Determine sensor resistance corresponding to the lower and upper temperature range of the transmitter
from Tables 3 and 4 (page 6). Using “RTD Calc” a more complete resistance vs. temperature chart can be
printed; Download it from Minco’s web site, www.minco.com.
3. Set the decade box to the resistance value corresponding to the lower temperature. Adjust the Zero pot until
the milliammeter reads 4.0 mA +/- 0.016 mA.
4. Set the decade box to the resistance value corresponding to the upper temperature. Adjust the Span pot
until the milliammeter reads 20.0 mA +/- 0.016 mA.
5. Set the decade box to the resistance value corresponding to the lower temperature and verify that the
milliammeter still reads 4.0 mA +/- 0.016 mA. Correct if necessary, then repeat steps 4 and 5.
Transmitter Ranging
The transmitter is initially calibrated to a specific temperature range, as shown on the label attached to the
housing. Unless a different range is desired, ranging is not necessary. If the temperature range is changed,
recalibrate the transmitter as described in the section, Calibration Procedure.
When a different temperature range is desired, Tables 1 and 2 (Page 5) provide range switch settings
corresponding to the various temperature ranges. Switches 1 to 4 set the lower temperature limit (Zero) of the
transmitter. Switches 5 to 8 set the upper minus lower temperature (Span) of the transmitter.
For example, a temperature range of 50 to 200°F has a Zero of 50°F and a Span of 150°F (200-50). Table 1
shows the closest Zero range is 58°F with switches 1 through 4, respectively, in the ON, OFF, OFF, and ON
positions. Likewise, Table 2 shows the closest Span range is 155°F with switches 5 through 8, respectively, in the
ON, OFF, ON, and OFF positions. Once the switches are set, the Zero and Span trim pots should provide sufficient
adjustments to calibrate the transmitter.
In the event that the trim pots do not have sufficient adjustments, the switch settings should then be changed. In
the above example, if the Zero trim pot cannot adjust the transmitter current up to 4mA with the 58°F Zero switch
settings, then the Zero switch settings should then be changed to 38°F (ON, OFF, ON and OFF) which is the next
lower range. Likewise if the Span trim pot does not have sufficient adjustment, then the Span switch settings
should be changed.
