1. Introduction

1.1 About this manual

This manual is intended to assist in installing, operating, and maintaining ProfIPAQ

temperature transmitters with PROFIBUS-PA, and it is divided into two parts;

Part 1: ProfIPAQ-H/-HX/-L Installation and Maintenance. Here you will find

connection drawings, mechanical drawings, electrical data, guidelines for mounting into

hazardous Ex location and accessories.
and

Part 2: Software and Programming. This describes ProfiSoft, the software to configure
the ProfIPAQ transmitters via the PC serial port.

It also contains some generic PROFIBUS information. ProfIPAQ transmitters DD are

integrated into Siemens Simatic PDM version 5.1 or higher. For use with an earlier version
of Siemens Simatic PDM and other software problems using Siemens Simatic PDM, consult

Siemens user’s manual.

1.2 About ProfIPAQ

ProfIPAQ is a line of temperature transmitters from INOR, designed according to the

latest PROFIBUS-PA standard for temperature transmitters, i.e. Profile 3.0, class A & B. At

present the following versions are available:
ProfIPAQ-H in-head for non-Ex and Non-Incendive gas (Zone 2) applications.

ProfIPAQ-H/D is a dust version of ProfIPAQ-H with dust tested housing for non-Ex and Non-
Incendive dust (Zone 22) applications.

ProfIPAQ-HX in-head for Intrinsic safe Ex ia/ib gas applications (Zone 0 and 1),

ProfIPAQ-HX/D is a dust version of ProfIPAQ-HX with a dust tested housing for Intrinsic safe
Ex ia/ib dust applications (Zone 21) applications and

ProfIPAQ-L DIN-rail mounted for non-Ex applications.

1.2.1 Features:
• PROFIBUS PA certified communication

• Easy setup via a separate INOR communication port as an alternative to PROFIBUS

• High accuracy measurement

• Linearizes for most temperature sensors.

• Custom linearization for other type of sensors with mV and ohm output.

• Accepts two input signals making it possible to do differential measurements, average

measurement, redundancy and sensor ageing control.

• FDE (Fault Disconnect Equipment) ensures that the ProfIPAQ transmitter won’t pull down

a whole segment in a PROFIBUS net if the transmitter fails internally.

• DDL and GSD files available

• Sensor monitoring functions: sensor break, sensor short circuit, low sensor isolation

• A separate LCD-indicator can be connected to the communication port of the transmitter.
