Corrective Maintenance

The most likely malfunction of a loop containing an HF300 Series HART filter is reverse polarity installation of one of the wire pairs. The Type HF340 filter will work with either polarity, but misconnection could result in the wrong polarity reaching the field instrument. If the loop is not operating properly, check the polarity of the voltage at the inputs and outputs of the filter and at the inputs of the instrument.

If the instrument appears to operate properly in the loop, but communication with a non-isolated multiplexer or PC modem is not possible, it may help to reverse the wires to the COMM terminals. The Type HF340 filter inserts a high impedance in the + side of the loop only. A reversal of the connections to the SYS and FLD terminals of the filter will result in the control loop operating properly, but inoperative HART communication.

Inadequate control system compliance voltage will not support filter operation. This is an installation

problem that may appear initially to be a filter malfunction. For the filter to operate properly, the control system must have a compliance voltage that is at least 2 volts higher than the voltage required to drive the loop to maximum current. Refer to the appropriate instrument instruction manual for information on determining the control system compliance voltage.

Excessive load voltage will interfere with filter operation. A transient clamping device limits the output voltage to a nominal 15 volts. If the voltage at the output (due to the total impedances connected) is greater than 14 volts DC at maximum loop current, some of the current may be shunted by the clamping device.

The Type HF340 filter is protected against accidental over-current from sources up to 30 volts DC. If an over-current condition occurs, the filter may be inoperative for several seconds thereafter.
