11-4. Sensor Selection

11-4-1. General

The inputs of the EXA transmitter are freely programmable for ease of installation. Standard 2-electrode

type sensors with a cell constant of 0.100/cm and a Pt1000 temperature sensor, need no special pro-

gramming. The EXA indicates a fault with a signal in the display field if there is a mismatch of sensors in

the connection.

11-4-2. Sensor selection

The EXA SC202 is pre/programmed to accept standard 2-electrode sensors with a Pt1000 temperature

sensor. The EXA is universally compatible with all 2- and 4-electrode type of sensors with a cell constant

within the range of 0.008/cm to 50.0/cm.

11-4-3. Selecting a temperature sensor

The EXA SC202 reaches its highest accuracy when used with a Pt1000 temperature sensor. This may

influence the choice of the conductivity/resistivity sensor, as in most cases the temperature sensor is

integrated in the conductivity/resistivity sensor.

11-5. Setup for other functions

• Current Outputs

Transmission signals for the measured parameters can be set up in service codes 30-39.

• Diagnostic checks

Polarization check and checks on the calibrated cell constant and the adjusted Temperature

Coefficient, are included in the EXA SC202.

• Communications

The proprietary HART® communication link allows remote configuration and data retrieval through

the PC202 communication package. This is an excellent tool for the maintenance engineer, quality

engineer or plant manager. Service codes 60 - 69 are used to set up the communications.

• Logbook

In combination with the communications link, a “logbook” is available to keep an electronic record of

events such as error messages, calibrations and programmed data changes. By reference to this log,

users can for instance easily determine maintenance or replacement schedules.

Note:

On the pages Appendix 1-4 & 1-5 a reference list for the configuration of the SC202 is shown.
