2.1 General description
The C520/C520X / R520/R520X are intelligent two-wire universal transmitters for measurement
with up to two user programmable channels in single, differential, average, minimum or
maximum mode.
The C520/C520X / R520/R520X are intended for:
• Temperature measurements with single or dual resistance thermometers
• Temperature measurements with single or dual thermocouples
• Temperature measurements with one resistance thermometers and one thermocouple
• Temperature difference measurements with resistance thermometers
• Measurements with potentiometers
• Voltage measurements in a range -10…1000 mV
To increase reliability and stability of the system, C520/R520 transmitters have dual sensor
inputs.
The dual sensor inputs enable new safety features such as sensor redundancy and sensor drift
monitoring.
C520S/C520XS/R520S/R520XS are reviewed by exida according to IEC 61508-2 for use in SIL 2
rated Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS). For safety instructions see the safety manual.
The C520 and R520 are the standard versions for use in safe (non-hazardous) areas.
The C520N and R520N are non-incendive versions for use in areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres, Zone 2 and Division 2.
The C520X and R520X are Intrinsically Safe versions for use in areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres, Zone 0, 1 and 2 and Division 1 and 2.
The C520, C520N and C520X are designed for installation in a B connection head according to
DIN 43729 or larger.
The R520, R520N and R520X are designed for installation on a top-hat rail according to
DIN 50022 / EN 60715.
The two-wire universal C520/C520X / R520/R520X transmitters are HART® 5 and 6-compatible.
Configuration of the C520/R520 transmitters is possible with:
• HART® 5 and 6 protocol via 4…20 mA output circuit
• HART® 5 and 6 handheld terminal
• The graphic user interface DTM
• The third part PC software with a FSK modem for HART® 5 and 6 communication
• PC configuration software ConSoft with PC Configuration Kit - ICON
The PC configuration software ConSoft is used for configuration, display and documentation.
The current ConSoft version is available for downloading on our website www.inor.com.
