Siemens 7NG3211 Temperature Transmitter

Siemens 7NG3211 Head-Mounted Pt100 Temperature Transmitter

1. Posicionamento Básico do Produto

7NG3211 corresponds to SITRANS TH100. It is a 2-wire 4–20 mA head-mounted transmitter dedicated exclusively to Pt100 without HART communication. It only supports resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) and is incompatible with thermocouples. Designed to fit DIN Type B connection heads (44 mm round), it serves as a general-purpose basic temperature transmission module for chemical, power and HVAC industries.

Full Accuracy Specifications of Siemens 7NG3211 (SITRANS TH100)

(Standard test condition at 23°C specified in original manufacturer manual)

1. Overall Basic Measuring Accuracy (Key Indicator)
2. Span ＜ 250°C: Maximum error ＜0.25°C

Calculation Examples for Intuitive Understanding

Range 0～100°C (span 100°C ＜ 250°C): Max error ±0.25°C

Range 0～500°C (span 500°C ＞ 250°C): 500 × 0.1% = ±0.5°C

2. Repeatability Accuracy
