design flexibility
Description
4
The Model 343 Temperature Transmitter incorporates
microprocessor-based electronics and advanced temperature
measurement circuitry into a small economical package that
accepts a wide range of input types and ranges.
There are two different versions of the 343. The Model 343D is
a DIN rail (to EN 50022) version suitable for mounting in
rack-type enclosures. The Model 343F is a field-mountable,
explosion-proof version packaged in an aluminum enclosure
suitable for mounting directly at the point of process control.
The Model 343F is small and lightweight, allowing it to be
directly mounted to a thermowell in applications where this is
feasible. Both the 343D and 343F use the same electronics
module, thereby reducing spare parts inventory.
The 2, 3, and 4-wire RTDs, T/Cs, mV, and ohm sensors can be
used as the sensor element. See Table 1 for a complete list of
sensor types. The transmitter has break detection circuitry on
each input terminal. Upon sensing a break in the primary
element leadwire, the transmitter output will fail-safe based upon
user-defined units. Thermocouple cold junction compensation
is performed automatically using an internal sensor or external
two-wire RTD.

The transmitter output range can be set in engineering units
anywhere within the operating range for the input sensor type.
There is no minimum or maximum span limitation.
The Model 343 can install one of two local indicators. The LCD
Display is a simple 4-1/2 digit display. The SmartDisplayTM
indicates in °C or °F, but also contains a second line of
display and integral push-buttons that are used to configure
the transmitter.
The Model 343 uses the HART communications protocol. This
ensures that it will work with any HART product available today,
including the Moore 275 HART Communicator, PC-based
maintenance software packages, and distributed control systems.
HART also provides multi-dropping capability where up to
15 transmitters can be connected on a single twisted
pair conductor. Multi-drop networks minimize cost
considerably and are especially useful in tank gauging and
temperature measurement.
