Working Principle:
The UT55A-040-110 receives process signals on 4 universal inputs. The internal PID controller compares PV to SP and generates a control deviation. The voltage pulse output generates pulses at a frequency proportional to the PV or SP value (0–1000 Hz). These pulses can be counted by a remote totalizer or flow computer to accumulate total flow or batch count. The HBA and LBA functions continuously monitor input circuit integrity.
Advantage Highlights:
- Pulse Output for Totalization: Direct pulse output enables flow totalization without external converters
- 4 Universal Inputs: Monitor up to 4 process variables simultaneously
- Auto-Tuning PID: Eliminates manual PID parameter adjustment
- HBA Function: Unique heater burnout detection prevents undetected sensor failures
- High Accuracy: ±0.1% reading accuracy
Applicable Industries:
- Chemical batch processing (pulse counting for batch totalization)
- Water flow measurement (pulse-to-flow conversion)
- HVAC energy metering
- Food and beverage batch control
- Pharmaceutical batch recording
Installation Requirements:
- Panel cutout: 92 × 92 mm minimum, 96 × 96 mm nominal
- Mounting depth clearance: 108 mm from front of panel
- Use shielded cables for mV and thermocouple inputs
- Ground the pulse output shield at the receiving device end
- Ensure ambient temperature remains within 0 to 55 °C
Usage Precautions:
- Configure pulse output scaling (pulses per unit) to match the receiving totalizer
- Do not exceed 30 mA sink current on the open collector pulse output
- Verify input type configuration matches actual sensor type
- Calibrate annually to maintain ±0.1% accuracy
- Ensure the receiving device has appropriate pull-up resistor for open collector output
