Working Principle HART smart transmitter outputs 4-20mA analog current carrying primary process value, and superimposes FSK HART digital signal on the current loop. The module samples analog current through signal conditioning circuit. A/D converter converts analog signal to digital primary variable. The HART modem demodulates HART digital data to obtain secondary variables and device diagnostic information. Data is transmitted to Ovation controller and asset management platform via backplane bus. The module continuously monitors loop current and HART communication status, and reports fault upon wire break or communication failure.

Installation Requirements

  1. Insert VE4005S2B2 into rack guide slot, push fully and lock front handle.
  2. Use shielded twisted pair cable for HART transmitter wiring. Separate signal cable from high voltage power cable.
  3. Configure HART enable and channel measurement range in Ovation engineering workstation.
  4. Complete loop test and HART communication test before commissioning.
  5. Ensure cabinet protective grounding is reliable, grounding resistance less than 4 ohms.
  6. Verify loop resistance meets HART communication specification.

Usage Precautions

  1. Do not connect high voltage signal to analog input terminals. Overvoltage destroys channel circuit.
  2. Maintain qualified loop resistance for stable HART communication.
  3. Hot swap must follow Ovation official maintenance procedure.
  4. Do not touch gold plated connector pins by hand.
  5. No field repairable components. Replace whole module on failure.
  6. Prevent metal debris falling into rack slot during installation.
