H1QT Temperature Sensor Datasheet

Introduction

H1QT is a industrial-grade, fully calibrated digital temperature transducer; primarily designed to measure temperature in distribution pipes of gases and/or liquids. The solution offers a wide range of electrical connectivity options including RS485 and USB. The unit communicates using multiple protocol options. The unit offers multiple choices of physical connectors and can be used in a variety of environments.

Application

Temperature sensor H1QT is designed for precision measurement of temperatures of gases and/or liquids inside distribution piping or open air. The main measurement body is made from stainless steel, so any measured medium which does not react with stainless steel (DIN 1.4301) can be measured.

The sensor uses very sensitive probe to measure temperature in the tip of the probe. The sensor is fully calibrated and linearized.

Sensors are designed, assembled and tested in EU under full EU legislation.

Mechanical information

The transducer is enclosed in a robust stainless steel enclosure. Rest of the body is made from UV-stabilized ABS-based plastics.

Technical parameters

Type of measurement temperature
Maximum measurement range -40 to 120C
Max pressure of measured medium 2 MPa
Measurement precision 0.1% of measured range
this combined precision accounts for non-linearity of measurement, hysteresis and repeatability
Long-term drift less than 0,03 deg. Celsius per year
Recommended calibration frequency once every three years
Operating temperature -40 to 85C
Power supply 5V - 30V DC
Communication protocol MODBUS RTU or SDI-12 or HTTP/JSON or MODBUS TCP/IP
Mounting options see order table below
Thread material DIN 1.4301 (AISI 304 / X5CrNi18 10) stainless steel
Plastic enclosure material ABS - ASA
Isolation resistance at 500V RIZ > 2 M Ohm
IP protection grade according to (IEC 60 529) EN 60 529 IP 66, also available as IP68 for full long-term liquid immersion

Temperature measurement

Info

Packaging

Sensors are packed individually into padded cartons.

The packaging includes all information required for proper use and servicing of the equipment.

Installation

Physical installation of the sensor

The sensor is screwed onto the measurement place with appropriate spanner (24mm). The threads on the measurement place and sensor must match! Tightness of the connection is ensured by appropriate gasket – not a part of the standard delivery.

The following tables show functionalities of the pins on the sensor side of the connection for different combinations of physical connectors and transciever types.
