FEATURES
Rosemount® Model 710DU Trip/Calibration
Systems continuously monitor critical process
parameters and provide highly accurate alarm
action. As many as eight precision-calibrated trip
points can be assigned to a single sensor channel.
Any trip point can be quickly verified or changed.
The system consists of a card file with a plug-in
calibration unit and space for up to 12 interchangeable
trip unit modules. These features make Model 710DU
Systems highly flexible, simple to install or reconfigure,
and easy to calibrate.
OPERATION
Trip Unit
One master trip unit is required for each 4–20 mA
transmitter or RTD input. A basic master trip unit
displays the sensor output, provides one high or low
trip circuit, a high/low gross failure circuit, and a
proportional analog output for driving up to seven
slave trip units.
Each slave adds one additional trip point and gross
failure circuit to the transmitter loop. The trip
output of any master or slave trip unit can drive an
external relay. The auxiliary analog output of the
master trip unit can be used to drive an external
proportional controller or recorder.
The trip point circuit features precision external
adjustment with either high or low nonlatching trip
action. The gross failure circuits are internally
adjustable with manual reset high and low trip
action. Trip point and gross failure indicating lamps
are furnished on each trip unit.
Calibration Unit
The trip point for any master or slave trip unit
within the card file can be read or accurately
calibrated by the calibration unit. This unit provides
space for a unique digital readout assembly and
permits the operator to automatically replace the
field transmitter input signal to any channel with a
precisely adjustable calibration signal. This enables
the trip point to be compared exactly with the
desired input signal level. After the trip points for all
channels within the file have been set, the readout
assembly can be removed and plugged into any other
calibration unit.
Applications
Model 710DU trip/calibration systems are ideally
suited to nuclear power applications or any process
where frequent calibrations of trip points are
essential. Critical process trip points are repeatable
within 0.13% of span for 4–20 mA transmitter inputs
and 0.75% of span for RTD inputs under normal
conditions. System components have been qualified
per IEEE Std 323-1974 and IEEE Std 344-1975 as
stated in Rosemount Qualification Reports
D8200037 and D8300112.

TRIP UNIT CONFIGURATIONS
Master Trip Units
The master trip unit may be installed in any of the
12 card file positions. It provides an analog meter
(scaled in °C, °F, %, GPM, etc.) to display the sensor
signal. It also has one trip point and one gross
failure output circuit.
The trip point circuit has a 0–1 logic output signal
(0–24 V dc) for driving an external relay. A precision
adjustment screw is provided on the faceplate for
setting the trip point signal level. Switches for
selecting either a high or low trip action and a reset-
differential adjustment for the nonlatching trip
output are located on the circuit card.
The gross failure circuit provides a similar 0–1
logic output signal, but has internally adjustable set
points for both high and low latching trip action.
Each master trip unit has a trip status output
signal and an indicator lamp for the trip point, plus
a gross failure lamp and gross failure reset switch.
Both the trip output and gross failure output circuits
can be used to drive independent external relays.
Test jacks are also provided for monitoring the
sensor input and auxiliary analog output signal.
Slave Trip Units
Each slave trip unit adds one additional trip
output circuit and one gross failure output circuit to
any transmitter loop with a master trip unit. It has
the same features as a master trip unit, except that
it has no meter and no analog output.

CALIBRATION UNIT AND READOUT
Calibration Unit
The calibration unit provides a rapid, precise
means to check or adjust the trip point on any of the
12 channels in a card file. A removable readout
assembly (interchangeable among all calibration
units) gives high-resolution digital display of an
adjustable calibration current, which replaces the
transmitter input to any master trip unit selected.
When output of the selected master or slave trip unit
changes state, a second digital display latches and
provides a precise readout of the calibration current
level. A transient current can be added or subtracted
with the stable current for checking the response
time of externally driven equipment or for verifying
gross failure set points. During calibration, the
channel being tested is automatically placed in the
gross failure mode.
The calibration unit has a power switch, transient
current polarity switch, stable and transient current
adjustments, and a selector switch for applying the
calibration current to any master trip unit channel
while reading the trip point of the master or its
associated slaves. A calibration status signal (for
remote display) and a lamp on the faceplate indicate
that the system is in the calibration mode.
Test jacks are provided to monitor the time
response of the user's system.
Readout Assembly
The digital readout assembly displays both calibration
and trip current levels with 0.01 mA resolution. A trip
status output signal from the master or slave trip unit
latches the tracking trip current display. A trip status
lamp and reset button are provided.
