INTRODUCTION
The TT301 is a transmitter mainly intended for measurement of temperature using RTDs or
thermocouples, but can also accept other sensors with resistance or mV output such as:
pyrometers, load cells, resistance position indicators, etc. The digital technology used in the TT301
enables the choice of several output functions, an easy interface between the field and the control
room and several interesting features that reduce considerably the installation, operation and
maintenance costs.
The TT301, besides the normal functions offered by other smart transmitters, offers the following
functions:
SPECIAL SENSOR: the output follows a mV or Ohm input according to a 16-point linearization
table.
PID OUTPUT CHARACTERIZATION: the PID output signal (MV) follows a curve determined by 16
points.
BACKUP SENSOR: the process measurement is realized by two sensors, but only one supplies the
temperature. If it failure the other take its place.
INPUT SELECTOR: the selection between two sensor to obtain the measure is configured by user
based in the conditions of maximum, minimum or average temperature of the sensor.
CONTROLLER: the process variable is compared to a setpoint. The deviation acts on the output
signal according to a PID algorithm (Optional).
BATCH : setpoint generator allowing pre-programmed recipes of up to 2-week duration in 16 points.
LOCAL ADJUST: allow to set lower and upper value, sensor type, operation mode, indication,
setpoint, PID parameters without a configurator.
PASSWORD : three configurable levels for different functions.
CHANGE COUNTER: indicates the number of changes in each functions.
SPECIAL- SENSOR-UNIT: allows the reading to be indicated by one of 100 standard engineering
units or any special unit with up to 5 characters.

INSTALLATION
General
The overall accuracy of temperature and other measurements depends on severalvariables.Although
the transmitter has an outstanding performance, proper installation is essential,in orderto maximizeits
performance.
Among all factors, which may affect transmitter accuracy, environmental conditions are the most
difficult to control. There are, however, ways of reducing the effects of temperature, humidity and
vibration.
Mounting
Temperature fluctuation effects can be minimized bylocatingthe transmitterin areas protected from ex-
treme environmental changes.
In warm environments, the transmitter should be installed to avoid, as much as possible, direct expo-
sure to the sun. Installation close to lines and vessels subjected to high temperatures should also be
avoided. For temperature measurements, sensors with cooling-neck can be used or the sensor can be
mounted separated from the transmitter housing.
Use of sunshades or heat shields to protect the transmitter from external heat sources should be
considered, if necessary.
The transmitter may be mounted in two basic ways, as follows:
Separated from the sensor, using optional mounting brackets;
Mounted on the sensor assembly.
Using the brackets, the mounting may be done in several positions, as shown on Figure 1.1.
Measurement error can be decreased by using proper wires (see Section II, Operation).

WARNING
Do not remove the graphite grease from the covers, or they may jam.
Electronic Housing
Humidity is fatal to electronic circuits. In areas subjected to high relative humidity, the O-rings for the
electronics cover must be correctly placed. Removal of the electronics cover in the field should be
reduced to the minimum necessary, since each time it is removed; the circuits are exposed to the
humidity.
The electronic circuit is protected by a humidity proof coating, but frequent exposures to humidity may
affect the protection provided. It is also important to keep the covers tightened in place. Everytimethey
are removed, the threads are exposed to corrosion, since painting cannot protect these parts. Sealing
methods should be employed on conduit entering the transmitter.
One of the conduit inlets for electrical connection is used to mount the sensor integral to the
temperature transmitter (see Fig. 1.1).
WARNING
The unused cable entries should be plugged and sealed accordingly to avoid humidity entering,
which can cause the loss of the product’s warranty.
For better visibility, the digital indicator may be rotated in steps of 90o(see Section 5, Maintenance).
Reach the display and main board by removing the Cover with window. This cover should be locked
closed by the cover locking screw. To release the cover, rotate the locking screw clockwise. Seefigure

Wiring
Access the wiring block by removing the Electrical Connection Cover. This cover can be locked closed
by the cover locking screw (Figure 1.2- b). To release the cover, rotate the locking screw clockwise.
The terminals in the superior part marked with () and (−) are to receive the powering from 12 to 45
Vdc. The inferior terminals marked with the numbers from 1 to 4 they are for the connections of the
different types of sensor.
Test and Communication terminals allow, respectively, to measure the current in the 4 - 20 mA loop,
without opening it, and to communicate with the transmitter. To measure it, connect a multimeterin the
mA scale in the "" and "" TEST terminals. To communicate with it, use a HART configurator
between "" and "" COMM terminals. The wiring block has screws on which terminals type fork or
ring can be fastened, see Figure. 1.3.

Functional Description - Software
Refer to the block diagram (Figure 2.2). The function of each block is described below.
Input
Calculates the actual mV or Ohm from the value sensed by the input circuitry.
Digital Filter
The digital filter is a low-pass filter with an adjustable time constant. It is used to smooth noisy signals.
The Damping value is the time required for the output to reach 63.2% for a step input of 100%.
Input Trim
Here, the value obtained by READING-TRIM is used to correct the transmitter for long term drift.
Standard Sensor Linearization & Compensation
Here, the mV and Ohm measurements are linearized and cold-junction compensated according to the
sensor characteristics stored in the CPU. The CPU contains data about most standard sensors
available.
Ranging
It is used to set the process values corresponding to the output 4 and 20 mA in transmitter mode or
process variable 0 and 100% in PID mode. In transmitter mode the LOWER-VALUE is the point
corresponding to 4 mA, and UPPER-VALUE is the point corresponding to 20 mA. In PID mode, the
LOWER-VALUE corresponds PV = 0% and UPPER-VALUE corresponds to PV = 100%.
Time Generator (Optional)
Counts the time to be used by the Setpoint generator function. It may be paused by using PAUSE or
set to any value inside the table.
Setpoint (Optional)
Here, the setpoint is adjusted in PID. In this block, Setpoint tracking may be activated in SP-TRACK.
The setpoint may also be generated automatically by turning the SP-GENERATOR on. When running,
the setpoint generator will ramp and dwell the setpoint according to a table (recipe) configured in SP-
TABLE.
PID (Optional)
First the error is calculated as SP-PV or PV-SP depending on which action (direct or reverse) is
configured in ACTION. When Calendar Van Dussen function is used, the SP table points number is
limited to 14 points instead to 16.
TABLE POINTS
This block relates the output (%) with the input (%) according to a 16 table points. The output is
calculated through the interpolation of these points.
Auto/Manual (Optional)
The Auto/Manual mode is toggled in PID. In Manual, MV may be adjusted by the user in the INDIC
option. The SP-POWER-ON option is used here to determine in which mode the controller should be
upon powering it on.
Limits (Optional)
This block makes sure that the MV does not go beyond its minimum and maximum limits as
established by the HIGH-LIMIT and LOW-LIMIT. It also makes sure that the Rate-of-Change does not
exceed the value set in RATE-CHNG.
Output
Calculates the current proportional to the process variable or manipulatedvariableto betransmitted on
the 4-20 mA output depending on the configuration in OP-MODE. This block also containsthe constant
current function configured in OUTPUT. The output is physically limited to 3.6 to 21 mA.
Current Trim
The 4 mA TRIM and 20 mA TRIM are used to make the transmitter current comply with a current
standard, should a deviation arise.
