Temperature measurement
with SITRANS T

siemens.com/processinstrumentation
Temperatures firmly
under control
Top process quality and efficiency are key factors for success in
the process industry, and achieving them requires absolutely
accurate and reliable process instrumentation. The best example
of this is SITRANS T, our comprehensive product family for
­temperature measurement.

First choice for all requirements in the process industry

Whether as individual components or a complete solution,
SITRANS T definitely has the right devices for your require-
ments. Our product family offers temperature sensors and
transmitters for every application in the process industry,
even under extreme conditions – including general purpose,
intrinsically safe, and explosion-proof, and with globally
recognized certificates. Naturally we will support you
throughout the entire lifecycle of your devices with expert
service and support.

Impressively communicative
With SITRANS T, you benefit from end-to-end ease of use
and the highest transparency. Powerful software and a
comprehensive communications capability ensure simple,
highly efficient device integration and configuration.

Benefits at a glance
• Highest flexibility because devices are available
as a complete measuring point or transmitter for
head, rail, or field-mount installation
• Superior communications capability based on
industrial standards such as 4 – 20 mA, HART,
PROFIBUS PA, and FOUNDATION Fieldbus
• Simple integration into SIMATIC PCS 7 and all
common process control systems
• Support for planning, parameterization, commis-
sioning, diagnostics, and maintenance through
SIMATIC PDM (Process Device Manager)
• Device operation via HART and PROFIBUS PA
through the use of EDDs
• Devices for SIL applications usable up to level 2/3

temperature measurement
As the perfect basis for highly precise and reliable temperature
measurements, the solutions in the SITRANS T family are a good
choice for a wide range of applications. They also support opera-
tion and monitoring on-site, since the process variables can be
comfortably read on an optional display.

SITRANS T is the first choice wherever intelligent processing
of readings is required. The measurement status is easy
to monitor remotely or locally. Functional safety permits
SIL 2/3 applications. Safety and accuracy have been signifi- sensor-transmitter matching. As an added benefit, mainte-
cantly improved with the option of connecting 2 x 4-wire nance is supported by a two-color diagnostics LED and test
resistance thermometers, as well as through simple pins: suspect measurements can be detected at a glance –
and with one touch, the current loop can be measured
without any interruption.

 The complete program for a
wide range of applications
SITRANS T products are suitable for a variety of applications. Temperature sensors
and head transmitters can be integrated directly into the process. Under adverse conditions,
head transmitters can be decoupled from the process and easily replaced with sensors,
remote field transmitters or rail transmitters.

 SITRANS TS200
The compact SITRANS TS200 product series offers
the same advantages as SITRANS TS100. The only
difference is in the design: instead of a flexible
cable, the system comes with a fixed connection
(M12, Lemo, etc.).

Whether as a basic or mineral-insulated
SITRANS TF version, SITRANS TS100 supports a wide

for use under harsh environmental surface measurement. The intrinsically
conditions. safe version is approved for operation
even in zone 0 without an additional
thermowell. Here the sensor’s excellent
response time truly pays off.
SITRANS TR
The rail transmitters offer the same
features as SITRANS TH but are
deployed close to the process in
junction boxes or the control room,
thus enabling centralized access to
all connected measurement points.
SITRANS TS500
SITRANS TS500 is available in intrinsically safe
versions as well as Ex d and supports a wide
field of measurements, from simple applica-
tions to solutions for harsh environments. It is
designed as a modular system of tubular or
barstock thermowell, extension, connection
head, and optional transmitter and display.
This allows standard components to be used
for individual applications.

Special devices for food and pharma

The SITRANS T clamp-on sensors for hygienic
applications feature a wide range of appropriate
process connections for classic temperature
SITRANS TH measurement. When it comes to accuracy and
Despite their compact design for direct
response time, they are comparable to built-in
installation in the connection head, the
transmitters offer a high degree of com- sensors. They offer obvious advantages, especially
fort and safety – for simple applications as for small pipe diameters: no welding or welding
well as for PROFIBUS and FOUNDATION validation, no process disturbance, easy pigging,
