ABB TTH300 Head-Mount Temperature Transmitter

The ABB TTH300 Head-Mount Temperature Transmitter is an advanced, high-precision instrument designed to satisfy the rigorous demands of modern industrial process measurement and automation. Constructed with a compact DIN Form B head-mounting design, the TTH300 converts temperature-dependent sensor signals into stable, linear standardized communication output signals across diverse process applications.

Flexible Dual-Input Capability and Signal Conversion

Equipped with two universal sensor input channels, the ABB TTH300 supports a broad range of temperature sensing elements. It accommodates resistance thermometers (RTD Pt100, Pt500, Pt1000, Ni, Cu), thermocouples (Types B, E, J, K, N, R, S, T, C, D, U, L), linear resistance measurements up to 5000 Ω, and millivolt DC voltages. The transmitter allows single-sensor configuration as well as dual-sensor modes including mean measurement, differential temperature measurement, automatic sensor redundancy switching, and continuous sensor drift monitoring. High-resolution 24-bit analog-to-digital conversion ensures precise, reliable temperature tracking even under unstable thermal dynamics.

Multi-Protocol Digital Communication

Designed for seamless system integration, the TTH300 offers versatile protocol choices:

• 4 to 20 mA / HART Communication: Fully compliant with HART 5 and HART 7 protocol standards, providing configurable analog output with digital signal modulation.

• PROFIBUS PA: Compliant with PA Profile 3.01 and FISCO standards for process automation networks.

• FOUNDATION Fieldbus: Standardized fieldbus integration providing interoperability in automated plant architectures.

Functional Safety, Diagnostics, and Asset Integrity

Security and operational availability are core components of the TTH300 architecture. Engineered according to IEC 61508 standards, the device supports SIL 2 (and SIL 3 in redundant architectures) applications. Diagnostic monitoring adheres strictly to NAMUR recommendations, including NE 89 for sensor wire break and corrosion detection, NE 53 for software/hardware versioning, and NE 107 for standardized device status signaling and diagnostic history. Configurable error signals (high alarm / low alarm) ensure immediate loop feedback in fault conditions.
