WIKA safety manual temperature transmitter T32.xS
11583631.03 08/2014 GB/D/F/E
The temperature transmitter achieves, for all recognised connections for temperature
sensors, an SFF (Safe Failure Fraction) sufficient for SIL 2 of > 90 %.
The instrument generates a current signal in the approved measuring mode of a
nominal 4 … 20 mA, that is dependent upon the sensor signal. The effective range of
the output signal limited to a minimum of 3.8 mA and a maximum of 20.5 mA (factory
setting in basic configuration).
WARNING!
Do not exceed the specifications for model T32.xS given in the data
sheet and operating instructions. In order to ensure a safe functionality
of the current output, the correct terminal voltage must be present in the
instrument.
The following terminal voltage limits apply:
