Legal information
Warning notice system
This manual contains notices you have to observe in order to ensure your personal safety, as well as to prevent
damage to property. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to property damage have no safety alert symbol. These notices shown below are
graded according to the degree of danger.
DANGER
indicates that death or severe personal injury will result if proper precautions are not taken.
WARNING
indicates that death or severe personal injury may result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
with a safety alert symbol, indicates that minor personal injury can result if proper precautions are not taken.
CAUTION
without a safety alert symbol, indicates that property damage can result if proper precautions are not taken.
NOTICE
indicates that an unintended result or situation can occur if the corresponding information is not taken into
account.
If more than one degree of danger is present, the warning notice representing the highest degree of danger will
be used. A notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to
property damage.
Qualified Personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may be operated only by personnel qualified for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation for the specific task, in particular its warning notices and

2.5 Precautions
SITRANS TH200/TH300
Operating Instructions, 06/2010, A5E00393069-03 11
2.5 Precautions
In the interests of safety, the following precautions must be observed:
WARNING
"Intrinsic safety" type of protection
Connect the device only to certified, intrinsically safe circuits. These circuits must comply
with the technical data specified on the nameplate or in the certificates and approvals.
Should these circuits not match the details given in the certificates and approvals, then the
safety required for the approval can no longer be guaranteed. The device's protection level
"ia" is lowered to protection level "ib" if fail-safe circuits are connected with protection level
"ib".
"Limited energy" type of protection ic/nL (Zone 2)
Devices of the protection type "limited energy" can be connected and disconnected during
operation.
"Non-sparking" type of protection nA (Zone 2)
Devices of the protection type "non-sparking" may only be connected and disconnected
when in a powered-down state.
CAUTION
Modules susceptible to electrical discharge
The device contains modules susceptible to electrical discharge. Modules susceptible to
electrical discharge can be destroyed by voltages that fall far below the limits of human
perception. These voltages even occur if you touch a component part or electrical
connections of a module without being electrostatically discharged. The damage to a
module caused by overvoltage cannot normally be detected immediately, it only becomes
apparent after a longer period of operating time has elapsed.

Description 3
3.1 Application range
SITRANS TH200 and SITRANS TH300 transmitters can be used in all industries. Their
compact size means that they can be installed in connection heads of type B, in accordance
with DIN43729, or larger. Their input stage means that the following sensor and signal
sources can be connected:
● Resistance thermometer
● Thermocouples
● Resistance-type transmitter/potentiometer
● DC voltage sources
The output signal is an output current of 4 to 20 mA that corresponds to the sensor
characteristic curve.
Explosion-proof transmitters can be installed and operated within potentially explosive
atmospheres in compliance with the information given in the relevant certificates and
approvals and in these Operating Instructions.
3.2 Product features
● Transmitter with two-wire technology
● Installation in connection heads of type B, in accordance with DIN 43729 or larger, or on
a DIN rail
● With communications capability via the HART protocol rev. 5.9 in SITRANS TH300 or via
a proprietary protocol in SITRANS TH200. This enables, for example, the sensor
activation and measuring range to be programmed.
● Galvanic isolation
● Intrinsically-safe and non-sparking version for use in hazardous areas.
● Two additional test pins for connecting a multimeter make it possible to measure the
current signal without interrupting the current loop.
● Indication of operating status: LED green, flashing red, or red
● Special characteristic curve
● Diagnostic functions in SITRANS TH300: Min/max pointer, runtime meter, simulation

How the transmitter works
● The sensor supplies an electrical signal ①.
● This signal is converted to a digital signal in an analog-to-digital converter ②.
● The digital signal is evaluated in a secondary-side microcontroller ③ and corrected in
accordance with the sensor characteristic.
● The digital signal is transferred to the primary-side microcontroller ⑤ via the galvanic
isolation ④.
● The analog output valve is calculated in the primary-side microcontroller ⑤. The
functional status is indicated by LED ⑦, and the communications data are prepared.
● The digital-to-analog converter ⑥ then converts the signal into an output current of 4 to
20 mA.
● The source of auxiliary power supply is located in the output signal circuit.

3.5 Communication
3.5.1 Overview
SITRANS TH200
This device version does not have an interface to HART. Assigning the parameters to the
SITRANS TH200 is only possible "offline" using the modem for SITRANS
TH100/TH200/TR200.
SITRANS TH300
The device has a parameter assignment interface according to the HART specification. The
parameter assignment interface permits access to all the functions of the device via a HART
modem or a HART communicator. Connect the HART modem or the HART communicator in
accordance with the Fig. "HART communication with supply from voltage source".
WARNING
Only operate intrinsically safe HART modems or HART communicators on intrinsically safe
circuits. Be sure that the intrinsically safe parameters are observed.
