TECSYSTEM NT935 WS User Manual

NT935 WS
All "NT" series control units have linearity of the sensor signal, with a maximum error of 1% of full scale value.
NOTE: the use of cables not complying with the above could cause possible reading anomalies. It is always
important to take into account that any interference on the signal lines might cause anomalies on the Pt100
inputs (CH1-CH2-CH3-CH4.) or on the sensors themselves.
ATTENTION:
We recommend you check the device's programming before starting the device.
The default parameters set by TECSYSTEM might not match your requirements.
Programming the device is the end user's responsibility, the settings of the alarm thresholds and the enabling of
the functions described in this manual must be checked (by a specialised engineer) according to the application
and features of the system the control unit is installed on.
TEMPERATURE SENSORS
Each Pt100 thermometric sensor has one white and two red connectors (CEI 75.8 regulations).
The CH2 channel must be always referred to the central column of the transformer.
The CH4 channel must be always referred either to the core of the transformer or to the Pt100 ambient sensor if you wish to
thermo-regulate the transformer room using the NT935 WS control unit.
MEASUREMENT SIGNAL TRANSFER
All the cables transferring the Pt100 measurement signals must comply with the following under all circumstances:
1. Every Pt100 must be connected with a three-wire cable having a minimum section of 0.35mm² and a maximum of 1 mm².
2. The extension cable must be screened with tinned copper braid with an 80% cover
3. Conductors must be twisted, maximum recommended step 60mm
4. The cable screening must be grounded only with a termination, preferably on the unit side.
5. The sensors' signal transfer cable must not be near electrical cables, either low or medium-high voltage.
6. The Pt100 cable and the signal transfer cable must be laid in a straight line, without any winding.
7. Any caps used to butt conductors must be crimped properly to avoid false contacts.
NOTE: to install the sensors and signal transferring cable correctly, read the SCS/ SENSOR installation rules
manual.
What may happen when installation rules are not complied with.
1)The electrical field propagating from the power line of another circuit, couples capacitively with the conductors (in particular
with unscreened cables). The effect of this coupling creates a signal that overlaps the signal transmitted by the nearby
conductors, causing incorrect readings.
2) The variations in magnetic flux in the power lines may induce an electromotive force on the signal transferring cables (in
particular non-twisted cables), that, being a closed circuit, generates a current. This interference current, multiplied by the
circuit resistance, gives a voltage value that overlaps the signal to be transmitted, distorting the sensor measurement.
3) False contacts can alter the signal with the consequent variation in the temperature detected.
In specific cases, when the rules for connecting the Pt100 sensors are not complied with, the following anomalies can occur
between the SCS box and the temperature control unit:
a) incorrect temperature readings, alarms or anomalous tripping
b) mechanical / electrical fault of the Pt100 sensors
c) damage to the Pt100 inputs of the control unit.
TECSYSTEM S.r.l. has designed its own special cable to transfer the measurement signals, CEI-compliant, with all the
protection requirements provided for mod. CT-ES
