Temperature sensor for oil or hydraulic
lines
IFM Electronic has developed the type TA temperature sensor which can be used in oil or hydraulic lines of stationary applications but also in mobile vehicles and small pipes where space is limited.
IFM Electronic has developed temperature sensors, the type TA, which are universal transmitters, either with integrated AS-i slave (TAA131) or 4...20 mA output (TA3130) They are used in oil or hydraulic lines of stationary applications but also in mobile vehicles and in small pipes where space is limited

Temperature sensor acts fast
Reaction times as quick as one second, Ideal for use in oil or hydraulic lines on stationary applications, can be experienced with the TA3 range of temperature sensors from ifm electronic.
Temperature sensor has long-term stability
Two different sensor elements that monitor each other while temperature sensing ensures that a developing sensor drift is immediately detected and reliably diagnosed.
The temperature evaluation range is between 0...140degC or -10...150degC.
The size of the sensors is 117.7 mm or 127.9 mm.
For the AS-i transmitter the transmission is effected according to the analogue protocol 7.3 which is implemented in all masters to AS-i specification 2.1 as a standard.
When the temperature sensor has been connected to the AS-interface the AS-i master detects the sensor automatically and starts data transfer.
The measured values of the temperature sensor are directly transferred in the physical unit degC and so they are available without further conversion.
The analogue unit (TA3130) provides a 4...20 mA signal which is proportional to the temperature.
This allows processing of the signal in every common controller.
Due to the Pt sensor elements of the precision class A an extremely high precision is achieved.
The excellent response time of the sensors is 1 s for T05 and 3 s for T09.
The integrated G1/4 thread ensures easy mounting without further adaptation.
The completely sealed and welded housing ensures not only protection rating IP 69 K but also high mechanical stability. Request a free brochure from IFM Electronic ...
