Summary

1. INTRODUCTION

The series TPI-SI offers intrinsic safety inputs. They are associated equip-

ment, placed in safe area. They are provided with input circuits for connection to a sen-

sor located in hazardous area and output circuits for connection in safe area only. These

instruments have obtained a UE examination certificate of the type according to

the prescriptions of the standards EN 60079-0 (2006), EN 60079-11 (2007), EN

60079-26 (2007), EN 61241-0 (2006) and EN 61241-11 (2006), in accordance

with the directive ATEX 2014/34/UE.

marking: 0344 II(1)GD, [Ex ia] IIC and [Ex iaD]

Classification of the appliance: Associated equipment - Group II (surface appliance) -

Category 1 (for zone 0 : gas permanently).

protection mode: «ia» intrinsic safety, maximum protection indice (protection ensured in

case of 2 defects taken into account)

«IIC»: most severe gas subdivision.

The series TPI SI accepts 2 types of µconsoles:

• the old generation with 4 electroluminescent alphanumerical green digits,

• the new generation with rear-lit graphical LCD.

The LCD allow the visualisation of 4 pieces of information:

- the value of the measure (5 mm high),

- the unit of the displayed measure, *

- the value of the analog output or the name of the product (TAG), *

- the status of the relay outputs and the RS485 communication. *

*(3.5 mm high)

This µconsole with LCD also allows showing these information vertically or horizon-

tally according to the sense in which the converter is mounted.

• Series TPI-SI 40 / 440

(Process inputs) in standard version :

- One bidirectionnal DC current or voltage input

±100mV, ±1V, ±10V, ±20mA.

• Series TPI-SI 41 / 441

(Inputs Process, temperature, resistance and potentiometer)

- One bidirectionnal DC current or voltage input

±100mV, ±1V, ±10V, ±20mA.

- Thermocouple inputs (J, K, B, R, S, T, E, N, L, W, W3, WRE5)

- Sensor inputs : Pt100, Ni 100, ∆Pt100

- Resistive sensors : calibers 0-400 Ω and 0-2 kΩ (0-8 kΩ optional)

- Potentiometers : from 100 Ω to 10 kΩ

• Fast version: option F: (specify on order)

The fast version is available on the series TPI-SI 40 / 440 and on the TPI-SI 41

/ 441 which do not have the inputs thermocouple and ∆Pt100 sensor.

The option F (fast) allows reducing the response times on the analog output

from 140ms typical to 55 ms max. and on the relays from 120 ms typical to

35 ms max. (for an acquisition time programmed at 20 ms).

p2

Available options: (specify on order)

• Series TPI-SI 41 /40

- Insulated analog output: option A: Programmable active current output

-Relay output: option R: 2 relays - Mode setpoint or window

Recording of the alarms.

Time delay and hysteresis adjustable on each setpoint. Alarm messages

- Insulated digital output; option N: RS 485 2 wire, protocole MODBUS-JBUS.

Note: The presence of the option digital output suppresses the opportunity to

have a relay output.

• Series TPI-SI 441 / 440

The TPI-SI have only 2 insulated analog outputs.

The programming of the scale ratios is independent for each of the two outputs.

Programming:

• With the micro-console

(LxhxD= 26.5 x 80 x 20 mm)

This µconsole which can be clipped on the front face allows visualising the measu-

re, or occasional modifications of the programming via a 4-key keyboard. It also

allows teleloading programming files to other products of the ARDETEM range.

The programming menus and the functions which can be accessed from the con-

sole are detailed in the following pages.

The series TPI accepts 2 types of µconsoles:

• The old generation with 4 (alphanumerical) 4 electroluminescent green digits,

• the new generation with graphical rear-lit LCD.

The LCD allows visualising 4 pieces of information:

- the value of the measure (5 mm high),

- the unit of the displayed measure *,

- the value of the analog output or the name of the product (TAG)*,

- the status of the relay outputs and the RS485 digital data link *.

* (3.5 mm high)

This µconsole with LCD also allows showing these information either vertically or

horizontally, according to the sense of mounting of the converter.

• By the configuration software SuperVision

To communicate with the series TPI-SI from a PC you will need a connection

cable. To connect this cable to the TPI-SI, insert the DIN plug into the especially

foreseen female connector (see drawing hereafter). Then connect the SUBD 9

points contact on a serial port of the PC. For PC’s which do not have a serial

port, we can propose a USB converter.

The software SuperVision allows reading the measures or modifying the con-

verter configuration.

Each configuration is kept as files stored on hard or floppy disk. These files can

then be consulted, modified, duplicated or loaded into the converters. The files

can be created with or without a converter connected. This software also allows

saving existing configurations from the instruments already in service. All these

files can be edited on any type of printer.

4.5.1 Mode transmitter / indicator

According to the choice SCALE YES / NO , you can choose to have or

not to have a physical display on the converter.

SCALE YES lets the following parameters appear : POIN (position of the decimal

point), dDIS and F.DIS (down and full display scale corresponding to the down

and full input scale, selected in dINP and F.INP) and UNIT (unit of the displayed

physical magnitude) : this unit is recorded in the converter for display on PC

software in association with the physical measure on the setting parameters :

setpoints, hysteresis, etc...

With the configuration SCALE YES it may be considered that the converter opera-

tes like an indicator, able to display, either locally (on the µconsole) or in a shif-

ted way with the configuration software, a measured physical magnitude.

Example 1: For a 4/20 mA signal from a level sensor on a tank, the following

programming is displayed :

in the menu INP: TYPE = mA, FUNC = LIN, dINP = 4.00 , F.INP = 20.00,

in the menu DISP: SCALE YES, POIN = _ _ _ . _ dDIS = 000.0, F.DIS =300.0,

UNIT = LTS (liters) CUT = NO for :

4 mA from the sensor, display = 000.0 --> 000.00 LTS

12 mA from the sensor, display = 150.0 --> 150.00 LTS

20 mA from the sensor, display = 300.0 --> 300.00 LTS

on the µconsole on the software

4.5 Display of the measure

p14

The software has 10 times more resolution than the µconsole.

The transmitter can be configured in mode indicator without leaving the µconsole

permanently connected (or even without having a µconsole at all).

In the case of MODE INDICATOR (with a physical scale programmed

by SCALE, YES), the parameters down and full display scale, setpoints, hysteresis,

dOdI and F.IdI for the analog output, cut-off and ordinates (if input linearised in

segments) are to be considered in the magnitude of the programmed physical

scale.

For example 1, one setpoint on the relay 1 (SPI.I) with a value of 30.0 corresponds

to a setpoint of 30.0 l. If the display overstepps 30.0l (if the input overstepps 5,60

mA) the state of relay 1 will change.

Note : If you want to avoid overloading the programming with an unnecessary

physical display, programme SCALE NO (mode transmitter). In this case, the para-

meters POIN, DDIS, FDIS and UNIT. and dOdI et FOdI (if option analog output) will not

be entered.

In the case of MODE TRANSMITTER (SCALE NO) the parameters

setpoints, hysteresis, cut-off and ordinates (if input linearised in segments) are to

be considered in the physical magnitude of the programmed input type (V, mA, Ω

etc...).

For example 1, for the state of relay 1 to switch if the level overstepps 30.0l, enter

for setpoint 1 the value SP1.1 = 5.60 for 5.60mA.

In mode transmitter , the resolution of the parameters is imponed by the selected

input type : 2 decimals for a mA input, 1 decimal for caliber 300V, etc... on the

console display.

The PC software offers 1 additionnal decimal.

4.5.2 Position of the decimal point / resolution

The parameter POIN should be considered as a moving of the decimal

point, and not as a resolution. The parameter POIN is common to all the display

related parameters in the case of a programmed physical scale (down and full

display scale, setpoints, hysteresis etc...).

In the case of a programming without a physical display scale, the parameter

POIN is not available and the position of the decimal point is fixed according to the

chosen input type (see p8 and p9)

Taking exemple 1 again, the display will be 300.0L for a 4-20mA input at 20mA,

and there is a setpoint at 30.00L.

If you want the measure to be displayed without decimals, that is to say for 20mA

display = 300, you must modify POIN from ---.- to ----. and divide by 10 all the dis-

play related parameters.

In this example, after modifying the parameter POIN from ---.- to ----. F.DIS will have

to be modified from 3000. to 0300. and SP1.1 from 0300. to 0030. to obtain the

expected operating.

Note: For safety reasons, in case the user forgets after changing the position of

the decimal point (parameter POIN) or the operating mode (parameter SCALE ) the

transmitter will offer again after SAVE YES the list of the parameters to be validated

again (see previous page).

4.6.1 Current input or voltage

Special liearisation:

For specific applications such as measurement of volumes, the converter

can memorise an unlinear curve, programmable in X and in Y.

The curve resulting from your equation can be replaced by a follow up of

linear segments, with a maximum of 20 points

(19 segments).

Note that X00 = dINP and the abscisse of the last point is

XNB-1 = F.INP

4.6 Input features

ROOT

SEGT

For the temperature input, when the resolution is changed from RES=1°C to

RES = 0.1°C or the contrary, the user does not need to modify again all the dis-

play related parameters.

The following oddness is to be noted on the µconsole, which only has 4 digits :

If you are in RES =1°C , with a setpoint SP1.1 = 1000 and if you modify RES =

0.1°C, you will not see the 0.1°C resolution (which can not be displayed on 4 digits)

for this setpoint, which will keep the display SP1.1 = 1000.

If you want to modify this setpoint to 900°C for instance, first enter 0900 and vali-

date. The converter will propose the value again with a programmed resolution of

0.1°C, i.e. 900.0.

The programming software offers all the parameters on 5 digits, or a 100 000

point resolution.

The µconsole, which can display only 4 digits, will round up these parameters in

mode reading and enforce the 5th digit in mode programming.

Example 2: The software writes a setpoint with a value of 300.07.

In mode reading on the µconsole, this setpoint will be read as 300.1 (rounded up

to the 5th digit). If it is modified on the µconsole in mode programming to 300.2,

the software will show the value 300.20 (the 5th digit is enforced to 0).

Square roote extraction

The function square root tends to amplify the input signal background

noise when getting near zero.

To avoid the ripples caused by this noise, simply programme a cut-off

value (in display points).

If the display is under this value, it will be maintained at down scale (if

input full scale > input down scale) or at the full scale (if input full scale <

input down scale)

Note1: The values of the abscisses (x) must go increasing : value of X00

< value of X01...

Note2: In special linearisation and in mode transmitter (SCALE NO), the

displayed measure is the measure linearised by the programming of the

points. The undeformed input measure can always be accessed with the

function direct measure (see p20) on the µconsole or on the variable

Input on the software.

Example:

For a layed cylindric tank, 1 meter high (h) and 1 meter long (l); a 0-20

mA linear sensor measures the height of the liquid surface line :

0 meters -> 0 mA (empty tank) 1 meter -> 20 mA (full tank)

with cos β/2 = ( R - h ) / R a n d sin β/2 = C/2R

Volume of the empty tank = 0.000

Volume of the full tank =0.785

• Sensor rupture

The sensor rupture can be detected on the inputs mV*, Tc*, Pt100,

Ni100, ∆PT100*, resistance and current if down and full scale > 3.5 mA

(* not available on the fast version).

The sensor rupture information can be reported:

· On the relay

No influence of the sensor rupture on the relay

Relay de-activated (coil not supplied) in case of sensor

rupture

Relay active (coil supplied) in case of sensor rupture

Note : the led is either still or lit, according to its programming in the

menu REL.

• Recording of alarms

Allows recording of the alarm after a setpoint has been passed. When

the measure reverts below the alarm setpoint, the relay remains on and

the led blinks to warn the user that a setpoint has been passed (to reset

the alarm recordings to zero see menu ).

Note : An exit from mode programming with configuration saving will

reset the alarm recordings to zero.

• Display of alarm messages

A programmed alarm message can be made to appear alternating with

the measure. The message will appear only during the alarm, while the

associated led is lit.

• Setting of the setpoints : There are 2 ways to adjust setpoints :

- either in mode programming entering the correct access code

- or by pressing simultaneously and if the access to a quick

entering has been authorized on the programming of the code (see p19).

4.7.4 Safeties:

• Self diagnosis:

The converter permanently watches any drifts which may occur on

its components. The self diagnosis serves to warn the user in case

of abnormal increase of these drifts, before they may provoque false

measures.

The information of self-diagnosis error can be reported :

· On the display: An error message appears aternating with the

measure.

Coding:

1 : Programming error

2 : Gain error

4 : Offset error

8 : Input calibration error

16 : Output calibration error

64 : Upper or lower input electrical overstepping.

If the instrument detects for instance an offset error (4) and a gain error,

(2) the value of the error code will be 6 (4+2).

· On the relays:

No influence of a self-diagnosis error on the relay

Relay de-activated (coil not supplied) in case of self-

diagnosis error

Relay active (coil supplied) in case of self-diagnosis error

· On the analog output

If a return value has been programmed

Value between : 0 and 22 mA (current output)

· On the display: Message

Note : The sensor rupture detection has a priority over the self-

diagnosis.

· On the converter: the led ON blinks slowly

• Disconnection of the sensor rupture (If input mV or temperature)

(Not available on the fast version)

The sensor rupture detection can be disconnected to avoid disturbing

some calibrators which may be sensitive to the rupture detection current.

• Inhibition of the last digit (low weight)

In mode programming, the menu LdIG allows suppressing the

display of the last digit, the latter being enforced to 0 if OFF is

validated.

Response time of the outputs (ms)

(for a variation from 0 to 90% of the input signal)

Caution: The response times may undergo variations in case of an

internal self-calibration : the instrument will at some times perform an

internal self-calibration in order to catch up with any drifts of its compo-

nents. During this operation the response time of the instrument may be

of 240 ms for Tmes = 20ms and 560 ms if Tmes = 100ms.

These self-calibration are performed every 10 seconds during the 10

minutes following a setting on tension (stabilisation time of the compo-

nents).

Special case of the potentiometer input:

The measurement of the total resistance of the potentiometer is perfor-

med every minute. During this period the response time of the instru-

ment may be of 160ms for Tmes = 20ms and 360ms for Tmes = 100ms.

Note: The instrument will also perform 3 self-calibrations during the 30

seconds following an exit from programming with configuration saving,

or (SAvE, YES), or after an electrical overstepping of the input.
