1.1 FEATURES AND APPLICATIONS

The Model 5081-T can be used to measure conductivity in a variety of process liquids. The 5081 is compatible with most Rosemount Analytical sensors. See the Specifications section for details.

The transmitter has a rugged, weatherproof, corrosion- resistant enclosure (NEMA 4X and IP65) of epoxy-painted aluminum. The enclosure also meets NEMA 7B explo- sion-proof standards.

The transmitter has a two-line seven-segment display. The main measurement appears in 0.8-inch (20 mm) high numerals. The secondary measurement, temperature (and pH if free chlorine is being measured), appears in 0.3-inch (7 mm) high digits.

Two digital communication protocols are available: HART (model option -HT) and FOUNDATION Fieldbus (model options -FF and FI). Digital communications allows access to AMS (Asset Management Solutions). Use AMS to set up and configure the transmitter, read process vari- ables, and troubleshoot problems from a personal com- puter or host anywhere in the plant.

A handheld infrared remote controller or the HART and FOUNDATION Fieldbus Model 375 communicator can also be used for programming and calibrating the transmitter. The remote controller works from as far away as six feet.

Housed in a rugged NEMA 4X and NEMA 7 case, the 5081T measures conductivity or resistivity in the harshest environments. Transmitter can also be configured, using the "Custom Curve" feature, to measure ppm, %, or a no unit variable according to a programmable conductivity vs. variable curve. The transmitter will automatically recog- nize the type of RTD (Pt100 or Pt1000) being used. Measurements are automatically corrected for the resist- ance of the sensor cable to improve accuracy of high con- ductivity readings. Temperature compensation choices are linear slope correction or none (display of raw conduc- tivity.
