circuit. Observe the specifications for the electrical data on the certificate and in Chapter

"Technical data (Page 189)".

WARNING Use of incorrect device parts in potentially explosive environments

Devices and their associated device parts are either approved for different types of protection or they do not have explosion protection. There is a danger of explosion if device parts (such as covers) are used for devices with explosion protection that are not expressly suited for this type of protection. If you do not adhere to these guidelines, the test certificates and the manufacturer warranty will become null and void. Use only device parts that have been approved for the respective type of protection in

the potentially explosive environment. Covers that are not suited for the "explosion-proof" type of protection are identified as such by a notice label attached to the inside of the cover with "Not Ex d Not SIL".

Do not swap device parts unless the manufacturer specifically ensures compatibility of these parts.

WARNING Risk of explosion due to electrostatic charge

To prevent the build-up of an electrostatic charge in a hazardous area, the key cover must be closed during operation and the screws tightened.

The key cover may be opened temporarily at any time for the purposes of operating the transmitter, even during plant operation; the screws should then be tightened again.

SITRANS P500 with HART Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06 15

NOTICE Electrostatic-sensitive devices

The device contains electrostatic-sensitive devices (ESD). ESD can be destroyed by voltages far too low to be detected by humans. These voltages can occur if you simply touch a component part or the 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.

Protective measures against the discharge of static electricity: Make sure that no power is applied. Before working with modules, make sure that you discharge static from your body, for

example by touching a grounded object. Devices and tools used must be free of static charge. Hold modules only by their edges. Do not touch connector pins or conductor tracks on a module with the ESD notice.

Description 33.1 System configuration

Overview The pressure transmitter can be used in a number of system configurations:

● as a stand-alone version, supplied with the necessary auxiliary power

● as part of a complex system environment, e.g. SIMATIC S7

System communication Communication is via the HART protocol, using:

● HART Communicator (load 230 ... 1100 Ω)

● PC with HART modem, on which appropriate software is installed, e.g. SIMATIC PDM (load 230 ... 500 Ω)

● Control system which can communicate via the HART protocol, e.g. SIMATIC PCS7

Figure 3-1 Possible system configurations

Description 3.2 Application range

SITRANS P500 with HART 18 Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06

3.2 Application range

Overview Depending on the variant, the pressure transmitter measures corrosive, non-corrosive and hazardous gases, vapors and liquids.

With appropriate configuration, you can also use the differential pressure transmitter for the following measurement types:

● Level

● Volume

● Mass

● Volume flow

● Mass flow rate

The output signal is always a load-independent direct current between 4 and 20 mA upon which a HART protocol is superimposed.

You can install the "Intrinsically safe" or "Flameproof enclosure" version of the transmitter in hazardous areas. The devices have an EC type-examination certificate and meet the regulations applicable to them, for example, the harmonized CENELEC standards in Europe.

Transmitters with remote seals of different shapes can be delivered for special applications. For example, measuring high-viscosity substances is a special application.

Differential pressure and flow rate This version measures corrosive, non-corrosive and hazardous gases, vapors and liquids. You can use this version for the following measurement types:

● Differential pressure

● Positive or negative relative pressure

● In combination with a restrictor device: flow rate q ~ ∆p

The smallest differential pressure span is 1.25 mbar (0.5 inH2O); the largest differential pressure span is 32 bar (465 psi).

Level This version with mounting flange measures the level of non-corrosive, corrosive and hazardous liquids in open and closed containers. The smallest measuring span is 1.25 mbar (0.5 inH2O); the largest span is 6.25 bar (2509 inH2O). The nominal diameter of the mounting flange is DN 80 or DN 100 or 3" or 4".

The negative connection of the measuring cell is kept open when measuring the level of open containers. This measurement is referred to as "measurement against atmosphere". The negative connection is normally connected with the container when measuring the level of closed containers. This balances the static pressure.

Wetted parts are made of various materials, depending on corrosion resistance requirements.

Description 3.5 Functional principle

SITRANS P500 with HART Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06 23

● The digital signal is analyzed in a microcontroller ④ and corrected with regard to linearity and thermal characteristics.

● It is then converted in a digital-to-analog converter ⑤ to the output current of 4 to 20 mA. A diode circuit provides reverse polarity protection.

● The measuring cell specific data, electronics data and parameterization data are saved in two EEPROM ⑥. One EEPROM is located in the measuring cell, the other is incorporated in the electronics.

Operation

● Use the keys ⑧ to navigate and set different parameters.

● If your device has a display ⑨, you can perform the parameter settings locally and track messages from the device visually.

● Other settings can be implemented with a computer using a HART modem ⑦.

3.5.2 Measuring cell operation

CAUTION Toxic and hot media leaks

If the measured signal fails because of sensor breakage, the seal diaphragm and the overload system may also be destroyed. In the worst case scenario of devices with a destroyed seal diaphragm, the process medium leaks on the side ventilated with reference pressure.

In case of sensor breakage, deactivate the lines to the device or depressurize the lines.

In the following sections, the process variable to be measured is called general inlet pressure.

Overview The following principles of operation are described:

● Differential pressure and flow rate

● Level

The following process connections are available, for example:

● ¼ - 18 NPT

● Flanged connection In accordance with EN 61518

Figure 3-5 Function diagram of the measuring cell for differential pressure and flow rate

● The differential pressure is transmitted via the seal diaphragm ⑧ and the fill fluid ⑦ to the silicon pressure sensor ①.

● If the measuring limits are exceeded, the overload diaphragm ⑥ flexes until the seal diaphragm ⑧ touches the body of the measuring cell ⑤. This protects the silicon pressure sensor ① against overload.

● Differential pressure causes the measuring diaphragm of the silicon pressure sensor to be displaced. The displacement changes the resistance value of the four doped piezo resistors arranged in a bridge circuit in the measurement diaphragm.

● The change in resistance causes the bridge output voltage to vary in proportion to the differential pressure.

3.5.3 Remote seals

Product description ● A remote seal measuring system comprises the following elements:

– Remote seal

– Transmission line, e.g. capillary line

– Measuring device

Note Malfunction of the remote seal measuring system

If you separate the components of the remote seal measuring system, this results in malfunctioning of the system.

Do not separate the components under any circumstances.

● The measuring system based on a hydraulic principle is used to transfer pressure.

● The capillary line and the remote seal diaphragm are the most sensitive components in the remote seal measuring system. The material thickness of the remote seal diaphragm is only ∼ 0.1 mm.

● The smallest of leakages in the transmission system leads to the loss of transmission fluid.

● The loss of transmission fluid results in inaccuracies in the measurement and failure of the measuring system.

● In order to avoid leaks and measuring errors, please observe the installation and maintenance instructions in addition to the safety notes.

4.7 "Remote seal" installation

4.7.1 Remote seal installation

General installation instructions ● Keep the measuring system in the factory packing until it is installed in order to protect it

from mechanical damage.

● When removing from the factory packing and installing: ensure that damage to and mechanical deformations in the membrane are prevented.

● Never loosen the sealed filling screws on the remote seal and the measuring instrument.

● Do not cause damage to the remote separating membrane; scratches on the remote separating membrane, e.g. due to sharp-edged objects, are the main starting points for corrosion.

● Select suitable gaskets for sealing.

● Use a gasket having an adequately large inner diameter for flanging. Insert the gasket concentrically; contact with the membrane leads to deviations in measurements.

● When using gaskets made of soft materials or PTFE: follow the guidelines of the gasket manufacturer, especially regarding the tightening torque and setting cycles.

● At the time of installation, use suitable fastening components such as screws and nuts that are compliant with fitting and flange standards.

● Excessive tightening of screwed joints on the process connection may displace the zero point on the pressure transmitter.

Note Commissioning

If a shut-off valve exists, open the shut-off valve slowly when commissioning in order to avoid pressure surges.

Note Permissible ambient and operating temperatures

Install the pressure measuring device such that the permissible limits of ambient and measured medium temperatures are not overshot or undershot even with the consideration of the effect of convection and heat radiation. Note the effect of temperature on the measuring accuracy. When selecting the remote seals, ensure that fittings and flange components have

adequate pressure-temperature resistance by selecting suitable materials and pressure ratings. The pressure rating specified on the remote seal applies to reference conditions according to IEC 60770.

For the maximum permissible pressure at higher temperatures, please refer to the standard specified on the remote seal.

Page 46: SITRANS P500 with HART - Gilson Eng Manuals/Siemens/P500HART_Ex... · 2016. 4. 19. · SITRANS P500 with HART Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06 3 Table of contents

SITRANS P500 with HART 44 Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06

Using remote seals with pressure measuring device for hazardous areas:

● When using remote seals with pressure measuring device for hazardous areas, the permissible limits of ambient temperatures for the transmitter must not be exceeded. Hot surfaces on the cooling section (capillaries or cooling elements) are a possible source of ignition. Initiate suitable measures.

● When remote seals with a flame arrestor are used, the pressure measuring instrument determines the permissible ambient temperature. In the case of potentially explosive gaseous atmosphere, the temperature around the flame arrestor must not exceed +60 °C.

4.7.2 Installation of the remote seal with the capillary line

Notes ● Do not rest the measurement assembly on the capillary line.

● Do not bend capillary lines; risk of leakages and/or risk of considerable increase in the response time of the measuring system.

● Owing to the risk of bending and breakages, pay attention to mechanical overloads at the joints such as capillary line-remote seal and capillary line-measuring instrument.

● Unwinding the excess capillary lines with a radius of at least 150 mm.

● Fasten the capillary line such that there are no vibrations.

● Permissible height differences:

– When installing the pressure measuring instrument above the measuring point, keep the following in mind: in the case of remote seal measuring systems with silicone, glycerin or paraffin oil filling, the maximum height difference of H1max = 7 m must not be exceeded.

– If halocarbon oil is used as a fill fluid, this maximum height difference is H1max = 4 m, see installation type G.

If negative overpressure is observed during measurements, reduce the permissible height difference accordingly.

"1.1.3.1.2 Setting LRV" Factory setting: 0 mbar, or as specified when ordered Setting range: Sensor limits Purpose: Setting the start of scale value (MA) Description: This parameter allows you to set the MA. By inputting the pressure MA and

pressure ME, a rising characteristic results if MA < ME. A decreasing characteristic results if MA > ME. Combinations that result in a range that is smaller than the smallest permissible range (depending on the measuring cell) will be rejected.

"1.1.3.1.3 Setting URV" Factory setting: Upper measurement limit, or as specified in order Setting range: Sensor limits Purpose: Setting the full scale value (ME) Description: This parameter allows you to set the full scale value. By inputting the

pressure MA and pressure ME a rising characteristic results if MA < ME. If MA > ME, this results in a falling characteristic. Combinations that result in a range that is smaller than the smallest permissible range (depending on the measuring cell) will be rejected.

"1.1.3.2 With Pressure"

"1.1.3.2.3 Set URV with Pressure" Adjustment range: Within sensor limits Purpose: Setting the full scale value Description: Use this parameter to set the full scale value to the current pressure value.

The change to the full scale value has no effect on the start of scale value. This means that the span changes. If the full scale value is less than the start of scale value, a falling characteristic curve can be achieved. The full scale value must be within the sensor limits and the span must not fall below the minimum, otherwise setting of the full scale value will be rejected.

"1.1.4 Trim Mounting Offset"

"1.1.4.1 Perform Trim" Purpose: Correction of the zero point error, which is derived from the mounting

position, among other things. Description: The position error and zero point error correction compensates for the errors

caused by the chosen installation position. After the position error correction, the transmitter shows the pressure measurement value 0.0 in the respective units.

See also Zero point calibration (position correction) (Page 160)

"1.1.5 Damping" (Page 69)

"1.1.4.2 Correction value" Purpose: Displaying the position error correction value description: This parameter shows the value of the position error correction that was

performed, in the selected pressure unit.

"1.1.5 Damping" Conditions: None Factory setting: 2 s Setting range: 0.0 ... 100.0 s, in steps of 0.1 s Purpose: Setting the electrical damping Description: This parameter sets electrical damping in seconds.

This affects the Primary Variable (PV) "1.1.2 PV Select" (Page 67) and hence the "4.3 Analog Output" (Page 137) parameter.

"2.1.4.1 Bidirectional Flow Activation" Factory setting: Off Adjustment range: Off

On

Purpose: Activate bidirectional flow measurement Description: The parameter enables the de/activation of a bidirectional flow

measurement. Bidirectional flow measurement is applicable to whichever measurement type is chosen, volume flow or mass flow. In the case of a bidirectional flow measurement, the output flow is divided in equal parts of forward measurements and backward measurements within the range of 4 to 20 mA. The output current from 4 to 12 mA is used for reverse measurement, the output current from 12 to 20 mA is used for forward measurement. The type of characteristic selected using the flow characteristic line parameter (lin, srlin, sroff, srlin2) applies equally to forward and reverse flow. If bidirectional flow measurement is selected, the following applies: |MA| = |ME| When bidirectional flow measurement is activated and the volume flow or mass flow measurement type is selected, the start of scale values (MApressure, MAvolume flow, MAmass flow) are set to the negative equivalents of the settings for the full scale values (MEpressure, MEvolume flow, MEmass flow). The write access to MApressure, MAvolume flow, MAmass flow, is deactivated when bidirectional flow measurement is activated. Switching the measuring mode switch to a setting other than volume flow or mass flow deactivates bidirectional flow measurement, if bidirectional flow measurement was activated. Deactivating the bidirectional flow measurement sets the values set for the starts of scale value (MApressure, MAvolume flow, MAmass flow) to zero. Deactivating the bidirectional flow measurement leaves the values set for the full scale values unchanged.

6.3 Description of the operating functions This sub-section provides relevant additional information on communication and certain parameters. Certain parameters require background knowledge which is provided here by graphics and/ or examples.

6.3.1 Operating functions through HART communication

Condition You can operate the transmitter through HART communication. The following is required for this purpose:

● A HART communicator or PC software such as SIMATIC PDM.

● A HART modem to connect the PC to the transmitter, or a HART communicator.

Introduction The full functionality of the transmitter is available via HART communication. The HART communicator and PC software are not supplied with the transmitter. How to connect and operate a HART communicator or the PC software is described in separate operating instructions or in the online help for both these tools.

Fundamental description The output signal is provided in the form of digital information in the following variables through HART communication:

● Pressure

● Level

● Volume

● Mass

● Volume flow

● Mass flow

● A "User characteristic" to which parameters can be freely assigned

As soon as you have set up the HART communication and the transmitter, you can adapt the transmitter to your relevant measuring task. In doing so, you can support the selectable measurement types "pressure", "level", "mass", volume", "volume flow", "mass flow" and "user characteristic". One or more device variables are permanently allocated to each measuring mode in order to execute corresponding measuring tasks.

Description Here the level is calculated and the hydrostatic pressure evaluated. The container geometry does not become part of the calculation.

Figure 6-6 Measuring mode "Level"

All three measuring modes equally specify the measuring range limits for the pressure range with which the following functions work. Ideally, this range corresponds to the sensor limits of the transmitter. For all settings, it is permissible to exceed the maximum measuring range by no more than +/-10 %. Values that lie above or below this range are rejected by the device.

6.3.2.4 Measuring mode "Volume"

Description If parameters are assigned to the measuring mode "Volume", the geometry of the vessel can be reflected in the level characteristic.

Figure 6-8 Measuring mode "Volume"

Example All three measurement types specify in the same way the measuring range limits for the pressure range with which the following functions work. In the optimum case, this range corresponds to sensor limits of the measuring transducer. For all settings, it is permissible to exceed the maximum measuring range by no more than +/-10 %. Values that lie above or below this range are rejected by the device.

In the following calculation example these sensor limits are taken as 0 and 4 bar. You can also set up a down-scaling; e.g. 1:2. A down-scaling of 1:2 corresponds to 50 % of the nominal measuring range, i.e. in this case 2 bar, which controls 100% of the following characteristic.

In the calculation example, the 2 value pairs 0 %;0 % and 100 %;100 % are assigned parameters to the level characteristic. This setting corresponds to the standard setting. The measured value from the pressure scaling is transferred 1:1 in this example.

For diagram, see Measuring mode "Level" (Page 145)

Select the "Volume" measuring mode with a unit from the volume range and the measuring range limits. The output of the characteristic acts directly on the input of the volume scaling. In the calculation example, this yields a volume of 5000 l for measuring range limits of 0 and 10,000 l at a process pressure of 1 bar.

Description If parameters are assigned to the measuring mode "mass", the geometry of the vessel can be reflected in the level characteristic.

Example All three measurement types specify in the same way the measuring range limits for the pressure range with which the following functions work. In the optimum case, this range corresponds to sensor limits of the measuring transducer. For all settings, it is permissible to exceed the maximum measuring range by no more than +/-10 %. Values that lie above or below this range are rejected by the device.

In the following calculation example these sensor limits are taken as 0 and 4 bar. You can also set up a down-scaling; e.g. 1:2. A down-scaling of 1:2 corresponds to 50 % of the nominal measuring range, i.e. in this case 2 bar, which controls 100% of the following characteristic.

In the calculation example the 2 value pairs 0 %;0 % and 100 %;100 % are assigned as parameters to the level characteristic. This setting corresponds the standard setting. The measured value in this example is passed on from the pressure scaling 1:1.

Select the "mass" measuring mode with a unit from the mass range and the measuring range limits. If you have not yet assigned a value to the density parameter, the output value of 1 kg/l is preset. The calculation example yields a mass of 250 kg for the "mass" measuring mode at a density of 5 kg/l.

Note

When the density changes, the measuring range limits have to be adjusted accordingly.

6.3.2.6 "Volume flow" measurement type

Description If parameters are to be assigned to the "volume flow" measuring mode, you can select a "flow characteristic". The "flow characteristic" can additionally be modified with a "correction characteristic" e.g. for an orifice.

There is also the option of measuring the volume flow bidirectionally. See "2.1.4.1 Bidirectional Flow Activation" (Page 85)

Example The "measuring range limits" specify the pressure range of 0 to 2 bar, which is interpreted by the following root extraction function as 0 and 100 %. In the following diagram, a process pressure of 0.5 bar is assumed.

In the "volume flow" measuring mode, a square-root extraction characteristic "srlin2" with a root application point of 10 % is applied as standard. In the calculation example, the input value for the "square root extracting function" is approximately 25% at a process pressure of 0.5 bar. The output value is approximately 50%.

In the calculation example, the two value pairs 0 %;0 % and 100 %;50 % are assigned as parameters to the "correction characteristic". This setting corresponds to a bisection of the input value for all output values.

Provide the "volume flow" measuring mode with a volume flow unit chosen by yourself and the measuring range limits for the volume flow process variable. In the calculation example, 0 l/s and 1000 l/s are taken as the lower and upper measuring range limits. The volume of flow is thus 250 l/s at a process pressure of 0.5 bar.

If you have not yet assigned a value to the density parameter, the output value of 1 kg/l is pre-set. In the calculation example, at a density of 4 kg/l for the "mass flow" process variable, this yields a value of 1000 kg/s. The density value that is entered is used solely for calculation of the mass flow. The density value that is entered has no effect on the orifice calculation that the user performs.

Note

If the density is changed, the measuring range limits must be modified to suit.

6.3.2.8 "User" measurement type

Description If a parameter is assigned to the "User" measuring mode, the variables "level", "volume", "mass", "volume flow" and "mass flow" are flagged as inactive.

In the "User" measuring mode, you have an option to define a customized unit for output scaling. This customized unit is, e.g. a specific quantity of liquid. This quantity of liquid depends on the input process pressure. Example: Fill the beverages in cans having a capacity of 0.33 l. You can now define your own unit of a "can", which corresponds to precisely 0.33 l. The quantity of "cans" depends on the input process pressure.

● linear "linear": proportional to differential pressure

● square root extracting "srlin": proportional to the flow, linear to the application point and then according to the root function.

● square root extracting "sroff": 0 to the root application point and then in accordance with the root function

● square root extracting "srlin2": proportional to flow rate, two-step linear up to the root application point. The first linear section ranges from the zero point to 0.6% of the output value and 0.6% of the pressure value. The second linear section runs with a higher gradient to the root application point and then in accordance with the root function.

6.3.5 Correction of the flow characteristic

Correction of the flow on the basis of the differential pressure transducer calculation protocol Based on the specific properties of the differential pressure transducer, a correction of the selected flow characteristic to increase the accuracy may be necessary.

This provides the option to correct the flow characteristic at 11 interpolation points. These interpolation points are distributed equidistantly on percentage values of the selected flow range.

Example: Measuring span 0 ... 14,000 m² / h First interpolation point at 0 m² / h (0 %) ... Eleventh interpolation point at 14,000 m² / h (100 %)

For calculation of the orifice-specific correction values, refer to the data in the calculation protocol issued by the orifice manufacturer.

For ease of calculation, technical support (Page 217) is available on the Internet.

6.3.7 Simulation

6.3.7.1 Overview of simulation

Description With the "Simulation" diagnostic function, you can receive and further process simulated measurement data onsite or in the control room without having process pressure value. This allows you to run individual process sequences in the "cold" state and thus simulate process states. In addition, if you inject simulation values you can test the line routing from the control room to the individual transmitter.

The simulation of the current can also be set as a fixed value and that of the pressure can also be performed as a ramp function.

6.3.7.2 Simulation as fixed value

Description Taking the physical unit of measurement into account, you can assign a parameter as a fixed pressure value. While pressure simulation is activated, the transmitter will not react to changes in the process pressure. The current output value is set corresponding to the required current or pressure.

6.3.7.3 Simulation with a ramp function

Description You can select a ramp function for the pressure simulation. Adjustable start-of-scale and full-scale values together determine the limits between which the simulation values with a rising or falling tendency can move. The step width can be calculated with the step number, which is also adjustable. You can specify the rate of rise of the ramp via the duration of the individual ramp steps.

6.3.8 Zero point calibration (position correction)

Description A zero point calibration is used to correct a zero point error resulting from the mounting position. The zero point calibration can be performed by means of the keys on the device or by means of the HART protocol.

Precondition The measured value is stable. It is particularly important to check this if the device has no display to show the measured value.

Procedure ● Make sure there is identical pressure in the two process connections.

● Perform the zero point calibration.

● Observe the damping setting.

Note

The effective measuring range is reduced by the amount of the upstream pressure.

Example: At a pre-load pressure of 25 mbar, the upper measuring range limit of a 250-mbar transmitter is reduced to 225 mbar.

Devices that are not turned down prior to delivery are trimmed at 0 bar and the upper limit of the nominal range; devices that are turned down prior to delivery are trimmed at the lower and upper limits of the set pressure measuring range.

Note

The accuracy of the test device should be at least three times as high as that of the transmitter.

6.3.9.2 Trimming the sensor

Trim the sensor at the lower trim point The pressure at which the lower sensor trim is to be performed is applied at the transmitter. Via SIMATIC PDM or the HART Communicator, you instruct the transmitter to accept this pressure.

This represents an offset shift of the characteristic curve.

Trim the sensor at the upper trim point The pressure at which the upper sensor trim is to be performed is applied at the transmitter. Via SIMATIC PDM or the HART Communicator, you instruct the transmitter to accept this pressure.

A gradient correction is thereby applied to the characteristic curve. The lower sensor trim point is not affected by this. The upper trim point needs to be greater than the lower trim point.

Example of an application The current is to be measured as a voltage drop from 1 to 5 V at a resistance of 250 Ohm +/- 5%. To trim the tolerance of the resistance, set the current transmitter so that the voltage drop at 4 mA is exactly 1 V and at 20 mA is exactly 5 V.

● Trim at 4 mA:

Use the current transmitter trim menu option to instruct the transmitter to output 4 mA. Read the measured value at an ammeter and input it. The transmitter uses this value for offset correction of the current.

● Trim at 20 mA:

Use the current transmitter trim menu option to instruct the transmitter to output 20 mA. Read the measured value at an ammeter and input it. The transmitter uses this value for gradient correction of the current. The value for 4 mA is not affected by this.

Note

If a multimeter is used, it must always be sufficiently accurate.

6.3.11 Diagnostic functions

Description You can activate and evaluate many diagnostic functions locally or from a central control room:

● Calibration timer and service timer (Page 164)

● Min/max indicator (Page 165)

● Limit monitor (Page 166)

The diagnostic concept for the transmitter envisages among other things that the diagnostic functions have available facilities such as monitoring limit values by assigning parameters to a limit transmitter warning and/or to a limit transmitter alarm:

● Limit transmitter warning: The device transmits via HART communication the diagnostic event that has occurred. The current output value is unaffected.

● Limit transmitter alarm: The device switches to the status fault current (Page 99).

As standard, all limit transmitter warnings and limit transmitter alarms, together with all calibration timer and service timer requests and alarms, are switched off. Optionally, they can be set either to give only warnings or a combination of alarms and warnings. The necessary steps for this can be found in the table for operation in the appendix or in the Help functions in the SIMATIC PDM software.

See also "3 Diagnostics" (Page 121)

6.3.11.1 Calibration timer and service timer

Description To ensure regular calibration of the electronics and for service work on the sensor, you activate a two-stage timer in each case. On expiry of the first time period, a calibration or service request is made. On expiry of a second time span set by parameter as a time difference, a diagnostic alarm is reported and a fault current is output.

The calibration intervals for the electronics are calculated using the following formula:

For performance of the calibration work, you must acknowledge the requests and alarms. Then you can reset the timer. In addition, there is a facility to deactivate the monitoring function.

The following procedure applies for acknowledgement of requests and alarms:

As long as the warning/alarm limit has not been reached, the following applies:

Page 167: SITRANS P500 with HART - Gilson Eng Manuals/Siemens/P500HART_Ex... · 2016. 4. 19. · SITRANS P500 with HART Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06 3 Table of contents

1. "Reset the timer" this resets the timer, which then restarts from 0. The monitoring remains active.

2. "Alarm/Acknowledge the request" this has no effect; the timer continues to run and the monitoring remains active.

When the warning/alarm limit has been reached, the following applies:

1. "Alarm/Acknowledge the request" resets the request / alarm message, but allows the timer to continue to run. In this state, a new alarm or warning is not possible since the time limits have already been exceeded.

2. "Reset timer" resets the request / alarm message, also resets the timer. It acknowledges the interrupt or warning at the same time. The timer immediately starts running again from zero and will report again when the warning/alarm limit is next reached. The next calibration interval is therefore immediately active.

6.3.11.2 Min/max indicator

Description The transmitter offers four pairs of min./max. pointers in a redundant arrangement. The min/max indicator pairs are used to monitor the four measured variables pressure, static pressure, sensor temperature and electronics temperature for negative and positive peak values. Each measured value maintains a saved min./max. pointer to record the long-term maximum and minimum peak values and the times when they occurred. If the value is for pressure or static pressure, the sensor temperature is also saved. Consequently, the values are available even after the device is restarted. The resettable min./max. pointers are even updated during a simulation, in this case non-resettable updates are performed only for the process variables that actually prevail.

The transmitter contains both resettable as well as non-resettable min./max. pointers.

Commissioning 7.2 Introduction to commissioning

SITRANS P500 with HART 170 Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06

Note Hot surfaces

Hot process medium and high ambient temperatures lead to hot surfaces which can cause burns. Take corresponding protective measures, for example wear protective gloves.

7.2 Introduction to commissioning Following commissioning, the transmitter is immediately ready for use.

To obtain stable measured values, the transmitter needs to be allowed to warm up for five minutes or so after the power supply is switched on.

The operating data must correspond to the values specified on the nameplate. If you switch on the auxiliary power, the transmitter will operate.

The following commissioning cases are typical examples. Configurations different from those listed here may be meaningful depending on the system configuration.

7.3 Differential pressure and flow rate

7.3.1 Safety notes for commissioning with differential pressure and flow rate

WARNING Incorrect or improper operation

If the lock screws are missing or are not sufficiently tight, and/or if the valves are operated incorrectly or improperly, it could lead to serious physical injuries or considerable damage to property.

Measure Take care that the locking screw and/or the vent valve are screwed in and tightened. Ensure that the valves are operated correctly and properly.

WARNING Hot mediums

In the case of hot mediums, the individual operational steps should be carried out one after the other. Otherwise, it could lead to excessive heating, thus causing damage to the valves and the transmitter.

Service and maintenance 99.1 Basic safety instructions

WARNING Impermissible repair of explosion protected devices

Danger of explosion in areas subject to explosion hazard. Repair must be carried out by Siemens authorized personnel only.

WARNING Impermissible accessories and spare parts

Danger of explosion in areas subject to explosion hazard. Only use original accessories or original spare parts. Observe all relevant installation and safety instructions described in the instructions for

the device or enclosed with the accessory or spare part.

WARNING Use of incorrect device parts in potentially explosive environments

Devices and their associated device parts are either approved for different types of protection or they do not have explosion protection. There is a danger of explosion if device parts (such as covers) are used for devices with explosion protection that are not expressly suited for this type of protection. If you do not adhere to these guidelines, the test certificates and the manufacturer warranty will become null and void. Use only device parts that have been approved for the respective type of protection in

the potentially explosive environment. Covers that are not suited for the "explosion-proof" type of protection are identified as such by a notice label attached to the inside of the cover with "Not Ex d Not SIL".

Do not swap device parts unless the manufacturer specifically ensures compatibility of these parts.

Service and maintenance 9.1 Basic safety instructions

SITRANS P500 with HART Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06 183

WARNING Use of a computer in a hazardous area

If the interface to the computer is used in the hazardous area, there is a danger of explosion. Ensure that the atmosphere is explosion-free (hot work permit).

CAUTION Releasing key lock

Improper modification of parameters could influence process safety. Make sure that only authorized personnel may cancel the key locking of devices for

safety-related applications.

CAUTION Hot surfaces

Danger of burns during maintenance work on parts having surface temperatures exceeding 70 °C (158 °F). Take corresponding protective measures, for example by wearing protective gloves. After carrying out maintenance, remount touch protection measures.

NOTICE Electrostatic-sensitive devices

The device contains electrostatic-sensitive devices (ESD). ESD can be destroyed by voltages far too low to be detected by humans. These voltages can occur if you simply touch a component part or the 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.

Protective measures against the discharge of static electricity: Make sure that no power is applied. Before working with modules, make sure that you discharge static from your body, for

example by touching a grounded object. Devices and tools used must be free of static charge. Hold modules only by their edges. Do not touch connector pins or conductor tracks on a module with the ESD notice.

Service and maintenance 9.2 Maintenance and repair work

SITRANS P500 with HART 184 Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06

9.2 Maintenance and repair work

9.2.1 Defining the maintenance interval

WARNING No maintenance interval has been defined

Device failure, device damage, and risk of injury. Define a maintenance interval for regular tests in line with device use and empirical

values. The maintenance interval will vary from site to site depending on corrosion resistance.

9.2.2 Checking the gaskets

Note Checking the gaskets

At regular intervals, check that the enclosure seals of the pressure transmitter satisfy IP66 / IP68. Grease or replace the gaskets if required.

9.2.3 Changing the measuring cell and application electronics

Related Each of the individual components "Measuring cell" and "Electronics" has a non-volatile memory (EEPROM).

Measuring cell data (e.g.: measuring range, measuring cell material, oil filling) and application-specific electronics data (e.g.: downscaling, additional electrical damping) are located in the measuring cell EEPROM. Application-specific data are lost when the measuring cell is changed. Application-specific data are not lost when the application electronics are changed.

You can backup application-specific data before changing the measuring cell and reload them afterwards. Use an input device which supports the HART protocol. (e.g. HART communicator, PC with HART modem and HART software or PC with HART modem and PDM software). Factory settings will be used if application-specific data are not backed up before the measuring cell is changed.

Service and maintenance 9.3 Cleaning

SITRANS P500 with HART Operating Instructions, 04/2013, A5E02344528-06 185

Technical developments enable advanced functions to be implemented in the firmware of the measuring cell or application electronics. Further technical developments are indicated by modified firmware statuses (FW). The firmware status does not affect whether the modules can be replaced. However, the scope of functions is limited to the function of existing components.

If a combination of certain firmware versions of measuring cell and application electronics is not possible for technical reasons, the device will identify this problem and go into "Fault current" mode. This information is provided via the HART interface.

9.3 Cleaning

Glossary

ATEX ATEX is an abbreviation of the French term "Atmosphère explosible" (potentially explosive atmosphere). ATEX stands for both EC directives in the area of explosion protection: ATEX product directive 94/9/EC and ATEX operating directive 1999/92/EC.

Auxiliary power supply Auxiliary power supply refers to an electrical supply or reference voltage which some electrical circuits require apart from the standard supply. The auxiliary power supply can, for example, be specially stabilized, have a particular level or polarity and/or other properties which are important for the correct functioning of switch components.

Auxiliary voltage → Auxiliary power supply

Dangerous failure Failure with the potential to bring the safety-instrumented system into a dangerous or non-functional status.

EEPROM EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory): a non-volatile, electronic memory module.

EEPROMs are often used where individual bytes of data (e.g. configuration data or runtime meters) change over time and must be stored safely in the event of a mains power failure.

Fail-safe The capability of a control to maintain the safe state of the controlled device, e.g. machine, process, or to bring the device to a safe state even when faults/failures occur.

Failure/Fault Failure: A resource is no longer capable of executing a required function.

Fault: Undesired state of a resource indicated by the incapability of executing a required function.

Firmware Firmware (FW) is software that is embedded on a chip in electronic devices – in contrast to software which is saved on hard disks, CD-ROMs or other media. These days, firmware is mostly stored in a flash memory or EEPROM.

Firmware usually contains the elementary functions for controlling the device, as well as input and output routines.

Frequency shift keying Frequency shift keying is a simple form of modulation, where the digital values 0 and 1 modulate the actual current signal by means of two different frequencies.

HART HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transducer) is a standardized, widely used communications system used to structure industrial fieldbusses. The communications system provides digital communications for multiple participants (field devices) via a common databus. HART is based especially on the equally widely used 4/20 mA standard for the transfer of analog sensor signals. The cabling from existing older systems can be used directly and both systems operated in parallel.

HART specifies several protocol levels in the OSI model. It facilitates the transfer of process and diagnostics data and control signals between field devices and high-level control systems. Standardized parameter sets can be used for the manufacture-independent operation of all HART devices.

Typical applications include transmitters for measuring mechanical and electrical dimensions.

Risk The combination of probability of a damage occurring and its magnitude.

Safety function Defined function executed by a safety-instrumented system with the objective of achieving or maintaining a safe system status taking into account a defined dangerous occurrence.

Example: Limit pressure monitoring

Safety Instrumented Function → SIF

Safety Integrity Level → SIL

Safety-instrumented system A safety-instrumented system executes the safety functions that are required to achieve or maintain a safe status in a system. It consists of a sensor, logic unit/control system and final controlling element.

Example: A safety-instrumented system is made up of a pressure transmitter, a limit signal sensor and a control valve.

Sensor Converter that converts mechanical or other non-electrical variables into electrical signals.

SIF A part/function of a safety-instrumented system that reduces the risk of a dangerous failure occurring.

SIL The international standard IEC 61508 defines four discrete Safety Integrity Levels (SIL) from SIL 1 to SIL 4. Each level corresponds to the probability range for the failure of a safety function. The higher the SIL of the safety-instrumented system, the higher probability that the required safety function will work.

The achievable SIL is determined by the following safety characteristics:

● Average probability of dangerous failure of a safety function in case of demand (PFDAVG)

● Hardware fault tolerance (HFT)

● Safe failure fractions (SFF)

Total error Total Error is sum of Total Performance and the long-term stability.

Total Error(s) → Total error

Total Performance Total Performance is the square root of the sum of the squares of the three deviations resulting from the influence of the static pressure, the temperature and the characteristic deviation.

TP → Total Performance
