The 266 pressure transmitter family
of products delivers previously
unattainable operational benefits

266: performance with intelligence

From the design to the software
functionality, the 266 represents
the latest evolutionionary step
in the wide ABB product portfolio.
Users can easily find the right application
solution for their measurement needs
and select among four different levels
of accuracy: from 0,075% up to 0,025%
so as to boost plant availability for
demanding pressure measurement.
Accuracy is no longer a constraint.

TTG Technology: no more barriers between users and

instruments
ABB is the first instrumentation company that is able to offer
TTG Technology (Through The Glass). With this exclusive and
innovative option, users can interact directly with the instrument,
without removing the windowed front cover. Using ABB’s proven
four button HMI (Human Machine Interface) with intuitive menu
navigation and Easy Set Up menu configuration times can be
greatly reduced. Moreover, expensive hand-held configurators
are no longer necessary since all the essential parameters can
be set via the HMI with just one touch. Thanks to this smart
technology the instrument can be configured without removing
the covers users can producing significant cost and time savings
especially in hazardous areas.

Easy to use… starting from the outside

The external non-intrusive zero and span push buttons allow
users to calibrate safely and in a few seconds the transmitter
range values. The transmitter also has an additional external
write protection which is operated by simply turning the button.

Simplicity and compactness
are the key to the ABB platform
for pressure measurements

Plug-in communication board and terminal block

for easy and quick commissioning
The replaceable communication module and terminal block
provide an easy solution for upgrading and changing the
instrument communication protocol. In the rare cases where repair
of the communications module is required the plug in nature of the
module ensures that the transmitter does not have to be removed
from the plant. The essential instrument data is stored in the
transmitter sensor and after changing the communication module
the auto configuration feature automatically uploads the
information into the communication module. This combination of
features can result in a considerable reduction in plant downtime
and loss of productivity.

PILD: enhanced diagnosis on board

At ABB the evolution never stops. For this reason we have
implemented as standard the PILD function (Plugged Impulse Line
Diagnostics) for Fieldbus Foundation and uniquely HART
communication protocols without extra costs. When the
diagnostics detect that an impulse line is blocked a diagnostic flag
is produced as part of the digital communication and a warning
displayed on the HMI indicator. Optionally on transmitters with
HART communication the analog current output can be
configured to drive up or down scale to provide an alarm signal.

SIL2 and SIL3 TUV certified

The 266 series is certified by TUV NORD for use in safety
instrumented systems as per the requirements of IEC61508.
The transmitters meet the requirements for SIL2 applications
in a single transmitter configuration (1001) and for SIL3
applications in a redundant configuration (1002).
