Section 1 IntroductionThis manual is provided to assist the user in installing, operating and maintaining the Anderson “T” Series transmitter. The “T” is a one-piece sanitary transmitter with digital communications capabilities. This digital communications capability is the feature which separates traditional analog transmitters from the new “SMART” devices which are becoming more popular for process monitoring and control. For more information on “SMART” and what it means to you, read the following:

Product Description: What is an Anderson “SMART Transmitter?An Anderson “T” Series transmitter is a second generation product developed on the proven RSP/RSV design platform. As such, it provides the user with an analog, 4-20 mA transmitter specifically designed to withstand the high ambient moisture, high vibration applications typical of Sanitary fluid processes. We’ve added a microprocessor‑based circuit to enhance performance and provide local/remote communication capabilities. Customers benefit by being able to simplify specification, installation, start‑up, and maintenance of their transmitters. We’ve chosen the “HART” protocol because of it’s broad acceptance in our core markets, and the flexibility and ease of use it provides our customers. HART stands for “Highway Addressable Remote Transducer”.

How do I communicate with the “SMART” Transmitter? Communication is accomplished via a “HART” Hand‑Held Terminal (HHT). The most current model the 275, was used in development of the “T” Series and will provide optimum performance and flexibility. Optionally, communication is possible via a P.C. interface.

Where do I connect the HHT in order to “talk” with my transmitter? At any point where the signal leads from the transmitter are accessible. This could be at the transmitter itself, or at any connection point in the 4-20 mA loop.

What happens to the integrity of my 4‑20mA signal while I’m connected via the HHT? A distinct advantage to the HART protocol is the isolation between digital and analog signals. The 4‑20 analog output remains intact while the HHT is connected!

What real life benefits will I realize by utilizing the “T” Series “SMART” transmitter? In general, SMART transmitters offer immediate performance enhancements over their analog counterparts. Initial costs are slightly higher but this is countered by the time savings realized during commissioning and subsequent calibrations. With the Anderson “T” Series specifically, the calibration menu has been enhanced to provide direct access to the transmitter span adjustment. This allows the unit to be zero adjusted before installation and spanned on the process line, something competitive units can’t do. Also, Anderson’s HART protocol was developed as a universal set of menu’s, applicable to all pressure, temperature and level transmitters. This will insure that future product offerings will all communicate via one, common HHT.
