A complete family of process

performance in real operating
conditions

ABB Instrumentation
Accurate, Stable and Reproducible Measurements
The 600T Series features a unique digital sensing system that
provides extremely high resolution of process pressure measure-
ment and exceptional long-term stability.
Advanced sensor technology coupled with microcontroller based
electronics virtually eliminate the ambient temperature error.
The 600T Series is manufactured in a state-of-the-art ISO 9000
certified factory to ensure a quality product that provides unequal-
led overall performance.
Digital Sensing Provides Better Performance
At the heart of the 600T Series is a unique sensing and measuring
system which converts applied pressure and ambient temperature
measurements directly into a proprietary Standardized Digital
Signal (SDS) output for use by the electronics module in the
transmitter housing. It accomplishes this by using an inductive
sensing element, a precise temperature sensor and a multi-mode
oscillator.
The multi-mode oscillator is an Application-Specific Integrated
Circuit (ASIC) that generates the SDS based on sequential swit-
ching of the dual inductance and the temperature measurement.
This all-digital design eliminates the analog to digital converter and
the errors and drift associated with it and provides precise, stable
and reproducible measurements.
The reference side of the sensor is exposed to atmospheric
pressure or vacuum, respectively for gauge or absolute measure-
ment.
Dual ASIC's Increases Processing Power
The electronics module also incorporates ASIC and surface mount
technology. This ASIC accepts the SDS input from the sensor
module and interfaces the microcontroller which performs precise
primary variable linearization, compensating for the combined
effects of sensor non linearity and transmitter temperature.
Transmitter Temperature
Effect is Virtually Eliminated
Part of the manufacturing process includes sensor characteriza-
tion: temperature response data is taken over the entire operating
range, and stored in the non-volatile memory. This data defines
how the sensor will behave, in an application, when exposed to
these effects. The primary sensor is instrumented with temperature
sensor. During operation on-line environmental measurements are
taken. The microcontroller compares this data to the characteriza-
tion data. From this comparison, the actual transmitter output is
corrected for the effect of temperature variation.
Advanced Electronics Ensures Reliability
The microcontroller-based electronics is designed to exceed sixty
years Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF).
High Turndown
Turndown range from 1:1 to up 10: 1 allows precision gauge and
absolute measurements of zero-based, elevated or compound
ranges. This reduces the number of transmitters both operationally
and in inventory.
NACE Wetted Material
600T Series meets NACE Spec MR0175 latest revision.
Dual Compartment Housing
Electronics housing is immune to Radio Frequency Interference
(RFI) also with meters installed, and provides a convenient integral
junction box for field wiring connections.
Local Zero and Span Adjustments Standard
The zero and span adjustment are inductively coupled to the
electronics so there is no housing penetration. No penetration
eliminates the risk of water or process entering the housing through
the adjustments which would lead to tranmitter failure. There are
three ways to disable the adjustments. The first is by activating the
transmitter security jumper. The second is by removing the adjust-
ments. The third is through the hand-held Communicator software
lock-out sequence which is password protected to allow total
transmitter security.
Transmitter Diagnostics
The transmitter continuously performs self-tests. Self-tests include
sensor and electronics over range condition, input circuitry and
configuration integrity and many others. Transmitter diagnostic
status is available during communication interface (i.e. with hand
terminal or other HART® host) and also on the local integral digital
display (electrical option code "A") for fast verification.
A user selectable loop test output current can be selected to help
analyze the other components of the loop.
Enhanced Remote Communications
Transmitters communicate with the P.C. based configuration
software, the ABB Kent-Taylor KHT hand terminal, the HART
model 275 Universal Communicator and any host interface
supporting the HART® protocol.
The Configuration Package
Takes the Work Out of Transmitter Management
Unlike other remote transmitter interfaces, the 600T configuration
package consists of two main elements: the configurator software
and the hand-held communicator. Designed for the P.C. environ-
ment, this package has the capability to:
• assemble a transmitter data base off-line,
• provide both a disk and a printed record ideal for ISO 9000 record
keeping requirements,
• download to the transmitter either with a standard modem or via
the hand-held communicator.
A two-level password protection is provided for all changes in the
transmitter data base.
Configurations stored within the communicator can be read,
written and deleted from the management operations of the
configurator.
Also, file back-ups and or different versions of the data base can
be created and maintained using the P.C. based configurator.
Maintenance, replace and reporting operations help to manage
transmitters more efficiently and increase process security.
The 600T Series is Field Repairable
Unlike other smart transmitters, the 600T characterization data is
stored with the non-volatile memory in the sensor module, not in the
electronics microcontroller. This means the electronics module can
be field replaced without loss of performance and without having
to remove separate correction PROMs or re-calibrate the transmit-
ter.
User Selectable Output Functions
Output characterization allows the following applications:
• Linear : Gauge or absolute pressure and liquid level measure-
ments
• Free programmable (5th-order polynomial) :
Output linear with volumes of liquids contained into any
curved vessels. Greatly improving both process and
level measurement accuracy.
• User selected constant current for loop testing.
Optional Indicators
The LCD display plugs into the electronics module, reads the digital
signal, and shows the digital output in pressure engineering units
or percent of analog range values. It also provides diagnostic
messages for troubleshooting the transmitter.
The LCD output meter is user-adjustable. It plugs into the transmit-
ter field terminal block and then reads the actual 4 to 20 mA output
signal. It can be scaled to read in engineering units.
Both indicators can be installed into one transmitter, if required.
An analog output meter is also available for those applications
where the transmitter operates outside the temperature limits of the
LCDs, or user preference.
