The ATT1 signal transmitter by Ascon Tecnologic

Process Instruments and Components Inc. (PIC) specializes in industrial equipment for applications in hazardous work environments. The distributor has partnered with many great manufacturers for more than 25 years. One of these partners, Ascon Tecnologic, develops and commercializes automation and control solutions all over the world – including the unique ATT1 signal transmitter.

This innovative signal transmitter blends Ascon’s proven measurement technology with strong hardware to measure signals in a broad range of applications.

With NFC configuration and more

The ATT1 can provide an easy-to-use configuration tool and is recommended for several purposes. Relevant applications include machine tools, oleodynamic systems, cooling and lubrication systems, plants, conversion of linear mV signals into standard 4… 20 mA signals, and sensors with no standard linearization.

Users can configure the ATT1 wireless transmitter by using various devices, such as a Smartphone (installing the APP and NFC antenna) or a PC with a dedicated programmer and related software. By using this dedicated software, it is possible to configure the transmitter (e.g. sensor type, retransmitted range), store all configuration data for future use, send stored configurations to a new device, and print all information. By using a PC equipped with ATNFC-Soft, one may also prepare and download one’s one custom linearization.

Three types of custom linearization are available for up to 96 segments. Other specifications for this signal transmitter from PIC:

• Input from RTD (Pt100, Pt 1000, Ni100), TC (B, E, J, K, N, R, S, T), and mV (-10… +70 mV);
• Potentiometer (10… 400 Ω / 10… 4 kΩ);
• Accuracy within 0.2 degrees Celsius;
• Cold junction compensation disabling;
• Programmable retransmitted range;
• Operating temperature range from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius;
• Mounting on DIN head and DIN rail;
• Compliance with the CE EN 61326-1 standard; and
• Calibration according to EN 60584-1:2013 and EN60751:2008.

The ATT1 is a cost-effective tool for many applications. An isolated version is available.
