CONSIDERATIONS

General Electrical temperature sensors such as RTDs and thermocouples producelow-level signals proportional to their sensed temperature. With simple HART

configuration, the Rosemount 248 Wireless converts the low-level sensorsignal to a wireless-enabled signal.

Commissioning The transmitter can be commissioned before or after installation. It may beuseful to commission it on the bench, before installation, to ensure properoperation and to become familiar with its functionality. When applicable, makesure the instruments are installed in accordance with intrinsically safe ornon-incendive field wiring practices. The device will be powered whenever thepower module is installed. To avoid depleting the Power Module, make sure itis removed when the device is not in use.

Mechanical Location

When choosing an installation location and position, take into account the

need for access to the transmitter. For best performance, the antenna shouldbe vertical with some space between objects in a parallel metal plane such asa pipe or metal framework, as the pipes or framework may adversely affectthe performance of the antenna.

Electrical Power Module

The Rosemount 248 Wireless Temperature transmitter is self-powered. EachPower Module contains two “C” size primary lithium/thionyl chloride batteries.Each battery contains approximately 2.5 grams of lithium, for a total of 5grams in each pack. Under normal conditions, the battery materials areself-contained and are not reactive as long as the batteries and the PowerModule are maintained. Care should be taken to prevent thermal, electrical ormechanical damage. Contacts should be protected to prevent prematuredischarge.

Use caution when handling the power module, it may be damaged if droppedfrom heights in excess of 20 feet.

Battery hazards remain when cells are discharged.

Power Modules should be stored in a clean and dry area. For maximumPower Module life, storage temperature should not exceed 30° C.

Sensor 

Make sensor connections through the cable entry in the side of theconnection head. Be sure to provide adequate clearance for cover removal.

Environmental Verify that the operating atmosphere of the transmitter is consistent with theappropriate hazardous locations certifications.

Temperature Effects

The transmitter will operate within specifications for ambient temperaturesbetween –40 and 185 °F (–40 and 85 °C). Heat from the process istransferred from the thermowell to the transmitter housing. If the expectedprocess temperature is near or beyond specification limits, consider the use ofadditional thermowell and extension, or remote mounting the transmitter tothermally isolate it from the process.

RTD or Ohm Inputs

The transmitters will accept a variety of RTD or ohmic configurations,including 2-wire, 3-wire or 4-wire connections. If the transmitter is mountedremotely from a 3-wire or 4-wire RTD, it will operate within specifications,without recalibration, for lead wire resistances of up to 5 ohms per lead

(equivalent to 500 feet of 20 AWG wire). In this case, the leads between theRTD and transmitter should be shielded. If using a 2-wire connection, bothRTD leads are in series with the sensor element, so significant errors canoccur if the lead lengths exceed three feet of 20 AWG wire (approximately0.05 C/ft.). For longer runs, attach a third or fourth lead to achieve a 3-wire or4-wire connection as described above.

Sensor Lead Wire Resistance Effect—RTD Input

When using a 4-wire RTD, the effect of lead resistance is eliminated and hasno impact on accuracy. However, a 3-wire sensor will not fully cancel leadresistance error because it cannot compensate for imbalances in resistancebetween the lead wires. Using the same type of wire on all three lead wireswill make a 3-wire RTD installation as accurate as possible. A 2-wire sensor

will produce the largest error because it directly adds the lead wire resistanceto the sensor resistance. For 2- and 3-wire RTDs, an additional lead wireresistance error is induced with ambient temperature variations. The table andthe examples shown below help quantify these errors.

Table 2-2. 248 Wireless FastKey Sequence

Calibration Calibrating the transmitter increases the measurement precision by allowingcorrections to be made to the factory-stored characterization curve by digitallyaltering the transmitter’s interpretation of the sensor input.

To understand calibration, it is necessary to understand that smarttransmitters operate differently from analog transmitters. An importantdifference is that smart transmitters are factory-characterized, meaning thatthey are shipped with a standard sensor curve stored in the transmitterfirmware. In operation, the transmitter uses this information to produce a

process variable output, in engineering units, dependent on the sensor input.

Calibration of the 248 Wireless may include the following procedure:

• Sensor Input Trim: Digitally alter the transmitter’s interpretation of theinput signal

Trim the Transmitter 

The Sensor Input Trim function may be used when calibrating.

Sensor Calibration

Perform a sensor trim if the transmitters digital value for the primary variabledoes not match the plant’s standard calibration equipment. The sensor trim

function calibrates the sensor to the transmitter in temperature units or rawunits. Unless your site-standard input source is NIST-traceable, the trimfunctions will not maintain the NIST-traceability of the system.

The Sensor Input Trim command allows the transmitter’s interpretation of theinput signal to be digitally altered. The sensor reference command trims, inengineering (F, C,R, K) or raw (, mV) units, the combined sensor andtransmitter system to a site standard using a known temperature source.Sensor trimming is suitable for validation procedures or for applications thatrequire calibrating the sensor and transmitter together.

Rosemount 248 Wireless

Use the following procedure to perform a sensor trim with a 248 Wireless:

1. Connect the calibration device or sensor to the transmitter. Refer toFigure 2-1 on page 2-4 or on the device terminal block for sensorwiring diagrams.

2. Connect the communicator to the transmitter.

3. From the Home screen, select Service Tools, Maintenance, SensorCalibration to prepare to trim the sensor.

4. Select 3 Lower Sensor Trim or 4 Upper Sensor Trim. (Note: It isrecommended to perform lower offset trims first, before performingupper slope trims).

5. Answer the question about using an active calibrator or not.

6. Select the appropriate sensor trim units at the prompt.

7. Adjust the calibration device to the desired trim value (must be withinthe selected sensor limits). If a combined sensor and transmittersystem are being trimmed, expose the sensor to a known

temperature and allow the temperature reading to stabilize. Use abath, furnace or isothermal block, measured with a site-standardthermometer, as the known temperature source.

8. Select OK once the temperature stabilizes. The communicatordisplays the output value the transmitter associates with the inputvalue provided by the calibration device.

9. Enter the trim point.

 AMS

For AMS, configure the sensor as indicated above.

From the Overview Screen click on the Calibrate button. Select “Lower InputTrim” or “Upper Limit Trim.”

The wizard will continue through the process.

The transmitter may be restored to the factory default by selecting:“Service Tools>Maintenance>Sensor Calibration>Recall Factory Trim.”

The wizard will revert the transmitter to the factory trim for a given sensor.

 Apply changes.

REMOVE POWERMODULE

 After the sensor and network have been configured, remove the PowerModule and replace the transmitter cover. The Power Module should beinserted only when the device is ready to be commissioned. Use cautionwhen handling the Power Module. The Power Module may be damaged ifdropped from heights in excess of 20 ft.

Rosemount 248 Wireless

MOUNTING The Rosemount 248 Wireless can be installed in one of two configurations:Direct Mount, where the sensor is connected directly to the 248 Wirelesshousing’s conduit entry, or Remote Mount, where the sensor is mountedseparate from the 248 Wireless housing, then connected to the 248 Wireless

via conduit. Choose the installation sequence that corresponds to themounting configuration.

Figure 3-4 provides an example of the relationship between transmitterhousing temperature rise and extension length.

Figure 3-4. 248 WirelessTransmitter Connection HeadTemperature Rise vs. ExtensionLength

Example

The transmitter specification limit is 85 °C. If the ambient temperature is 55 °Cand the max process temperature to be measured is 815 °C, the maximum

permissible connection head temperature rise is the transmitter specificationlimit minus the ambient temperature (moves 85 to 55 °C), or 30 °C.

In this case, an extension of 5” meets this requirement, but 6” provides anadditional margin of thermowell protection, thereby reducing risk of ambientthermal damage.

PHYSICALINSTALLATION

The Rosemount 248 Wireless can be installed in one of two configurations:Direct Mount, where the thermocouple or sensor is connected directly to the248 Wireless housing’s conduit entry, or Remote Mount, where thethermocouple or sensor is mounted separate from the 248 Wireless housing,then connected to the 248 Wireless via conduit. Choose the installationsequence that corresponds to the mounting configuration.

Upon installation of the 248 Wireless, ensure that each conduit entry is eithersealed with a conduit plug using an approved thread sealant, or has aninstalled conduit fitting or cable gland with approved thread sealant.

Ground the Transmitter  The transmitter will operate with the housing either floating or grounded.However, the extra noise in floating systems affects many types of readoutdevices. If the signal appears noisy or erratic, grounding the transmitter at asingle point may solve the problem.

The electronics enclosure should be grounded in accordance with local andnational installation codes. This can be accomplished via the processconnection, via the internal case grounding terminal, or via the externalgrounding terminal.

Thermocouple, mV, and RTD/Ohm Inputs

Each process installation has different requirements for grounding. Use thegrounding options recommended by the facility for the specific sensor type, orbegin with grounding Option 1 (the most common).

Option 1:

1. Connect sensor wiring shield to the transmitter housing (only if thehousing is grounded).

2. Ensure the transmitter housing is electrically isolated from the sensorwiring.

Wireless devices should also be powered up in order of proximity from theSmart Wireless Gateway, beginning with the closest device to the Gateway.This will result in a simpler and faster network installation.

VERIFY OPERATIONS Operation can be verified in three locations: by using the Field Communicator,at the Smart Wireless Gateway’s integrated web interface or via AMS™ Wireless Configurator.

Field Communicator  To verify operation using a Field Communicator, refer to the Fast KeySequence in Table 4-1. Select the Communication Status parameter to verifyoperation. For connecting a 248 Wireless to a Field Communicator, refer toFigure 3-3 on page 3-4.

Smart Wireless Gateway In the integrated web interface from the Gateway, navigate to theExplorer>Status page. This page shows whether the device has joined thenetwork and if it is communicating properly.

NOTE:It may take several minutes for the device to join the network.

NOTE:If the device joins the network and immediately has an alarm present, it islikely due to sensor configuration. Check the sensor wiring (see Rosemount248 Wireless Terminal Diagram on page 4-4) and the sensor configuration(see 248 Wireless Fast Key Sequence on page 4-2).

 Ambient Temperature Effect

Transmitters can be installed in locations where the ambient temperature is between –40 and 85 °C (–40 and 185 °F). In order to maintain

excellent accuracy performance, each transmitter is individually characterized over this ambient temperature range at the factory.

Temperature Effects Example

When using a Pt 100 ( = 0.00385) sensor input at 30 °C ambient temperature:

• Digital Temperature Effects: 0.009 °C x (30 - 20) = 0.09 °C

• Worst Case Error: Digital + Digital Temperature Effects = 0.45 °C + 0.09 °C = 0.54 °C

• Total Probable Error:
