YOKOGAWA STLD-301*E/MTS/PA
Product Overview:
The STLD-301*E/MTS/PA is a 2-wire, loop-powered smart temperature transmitter from Yokogawa’s STLD300 series. It supports thermocouple (TC) and resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensors with Multi-Sensor Technology (MTS) allowing field reconfiguration between sensor types. The suffix breakdown: *E = HART 7 communication, MTS = Multi-Sensor Technology, PA = Intrinsically Safe (Ex ia IIC T4 Ga).

Material Composition:
- Housing: Aluminum alloy (die-cast) with epoxy coating
- Process Connection: SUS316L stainless steel
- Terminal Block: Glass-filled PBT
- Gasket: Viton (standard), EPDM (optional)
Advantages:
- High accuracy of ±0.1% for RTD inputs
- Built-in process alarm eliminates need for separate alarm unit
- HART communication enables remote configuration and diagnostics
- SIL 2 certified for safety-critical applications
- Wide input type flexibility from a single transmitter
Applicable Industries:
Refining, chemical processing, power plants, HVAC, food processing, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, steel manufacturing
Installation Requirements:
- Mount the transmitter with the process connection pointing downward for liquid services
- Use a thermowell for high-pressure or high-velocity applications
- Ensure thermowell immersion depth is sufficient (minimum 5× thermowell diameter)
- For TC inputs, use correct extension wire type (K-type for Type K, etc.)
- Shield all input wiring and ground at one end only
Usage Notes:
- Perform sensor calibration at the transmitter using HART communicator
- Set alarm deadband to prevent relay oscillation at the setpoint
- Verify loop power supply voltage exceeds minimum operating voltage (12 V DC) plus voltage drop across loop resistance
- For Pt100 3-wire connections, ensure all three leads are the same length and material
