REMOTE SENSOR
For applications where excessive vibration or high temperatures (up to 100 ºC) exists on the measuring system or
when the positioner can not be installed due to its size, Vivace offers a remote sensor (optional) that works as an
extension of the positioner sensor, connected by a cable which has three length options to best adjust device mounting
to user process.
Figure 2.18 shows the dimensional drawing of VVP10 HART remote sensor components. At the left we can see the
positioner side that receives remote sensor signal, while on the right side we can find the opposite cable side,
containing the magnetic sensor already adapted to a fixation support.
Figure 2.18 – Remote sensor dimensions.
The remote sensor set is composed by three parts:
Sensor
Sensor itself, responsible for receiving the magnetic signal and sending it to
positioner as a milivoltage via sensor cable;
Transmission Cable
Signal transmission cable from sensor to positioner input board;
Positioner’s Inferior Base
Positioner inferior base prepared for transmission cable connection.
An example of positioner mounting using the remote sensor for a rotative
system measuring is shown on figure 2.19.
