THEORY OF OPERATION
The HPS 3000 Heater Power Supply may per-
form slightly different functions, depending upon
which electronics package it is used with. Figure
B-3 shows a functional block diagram of the
unit. The HPS contains a transformer for con-
verting line voltage to 44 volts needed to power
the probe heater. The relay, Figure B-3, can be
used to remotely turn the probe on or off manu-
ally. A triac module is used to turn the heater on
or off, depending on probe temperature.
When used with the CRE 3000 Control Room
Electronics or IFT 3000 Intelligent Field Trans-
mitter, the HPS uses a cold junction tempera-
ture compensation feature. This allows for the
use of a less expensive cable between the HPS
and CRE or HPS and IFT. The HPS and elec-
tronics package can be located up to 1200 feet
(364 m) apart.
The standard cable, between probe and HPS, is
thermocouple compensated. This prevents the
additional junctions between thermocouple and
cable from producing a voltage which would af-
fect the thermocouple output signal. A tem-
perature sensor in the HPS monitors the
temperature at the junction and sends a voltage
signal to the CRE and IFT. The CRE and IFT
uses this signal to compensate the probe ther-
mocouple reading for the temperature at the
junction between the compensated and uncom-
pensated cables.
