The proper and safe operation of the device

assumes that the Operating Instructions are
read and the safety warnings given in the
various Sections

are observed.

The deice should only be handled by

appropriately trained personnel who are
familiar with it and authorised to work in
electrical installations.

The guarantee is no longer valid if the instrument is

further tampered.

2. Brief Description

Application :
The purpose of the Tap position transducer is to convert tap
position of transformers to equivalent analog output. Outputs
can be given as input to either RTU or indicator or recording
instrument.
The device has one input channel and two independent out
puts.
2
Function :
Tap position transducers receives resistance input, which
corresponds to tap position of transformer. Out put is
proportional to tap position.

Features :
• Input variable (variation of resistance) and measuring range
programmed using PC / Simplifies project planning and
engineering (the final measuring range can be determined
during commissioning).
Short delivery times and low stocking levels.
• Analog output signal range also programmed with PC
(impressed current or superimposed voltage for all ranges
between – 20 and + 20 mA DC resp.
– 12 and + 15 V DC) / Universally applicable. Short
delivery times and low stocking levels. Output type
(Voltage or Current) are factory programmed.
• Electric insulation between measured variable, analog
output signal and power supply.
• Wide power supply tolerance / Only two operating
voltage ranges between 24 and a maximum of 300V
DC/AC.
• Other programmable parameters: specific measured
variable data (e.g. two, three or four-wire
connection),operating sense (output signal directly or
inversely proportional to the measured variable) and open
circuit sensor supervision (output signal assumes fixed
preset value between – 10 and 110%) / Highly flexible
solutions for measurement problems.

5. The Display:

Description of Display Reading :

The display is intended to show the current TAP number. It is

configurable. e.g. if max taps are set at 25 and if input range of
resistance is 0 - 25Kohms, then a 1K change in input will be
reflected by 1 TAP change on the display. i.e. for this case, for 0
input, TAP number will be 0, for 1K input, TAP number will be 1, for
2K input, TAP number will be 2, and likewise.

Fixed setting for output signals A1 and A2 :

After switching on A1 and A2 are at a fixed value for
5 s after switching on (default).
Setting range –10 to 110%
programmable, e.g. between 2.4
and 21.6 mA (for a scale of 4 to 20
mA).

When input variable A1 and A2 are at either a lower or

out of limits an upper fixed value when the input
variable........
..… falls more than 10% below the
minimum value of the permissible
range
… exceeds the maximum value of the
permissible range by more than 10%.
Lower fixed value = –10% ,

 e.g. –2 mA (for a scale of 0 to 20
mA).
Upper fixed value = 110% ,
e.g. 22 mA (for a scale of 0 to 20
mA).
The fixed value of A1 and A2 is
configured to either maintain their
values at the instant the open-circuit
occurs or adopt a preset value
between –10 and 110% , e.g.
between 1.2 and 10.8 V (for a scale
of 2 to 10 V).

7. Installation

Fig. 3
As the front of the enclosure conforms to IP40.The terminals of
the product should be protected from liquids

13
The Tap Position Transducer can be mounted either on a
top-hat rail or directly on to a wall or a mounting plate.
The Tap Position Transducer should be mounted in a
reasonably stable ambient temperature and where the
operating temperature is within range 0 to 45 C. Vibration
should be kept to a minimum and the product should not be
mounted where it will be subjected to excessive direct sunlight.

6.1 EMC Installation Requirements

14
A PC with RS 232 C interface (Windows 3.1x, 95, 98, NT or
2000), the programming cable PRKAB 601 and the
configuration software are required to program the transducer.
The connections between
“PC « PRKAB 601 « Tap Position Transducer” can be seen
from Fig.4.
The power supply must be applied to Tap Position Transducer
before it can be programmed.
The software is supplied on a CD.
The programming cable PRKAB 601 adjusts the signal level
and provides the electrical insulation between the PC and Tap
Position Transducer.

The programming cable PRKAB 601 is used for

programmingboth standard and Ex versions.

Of the programmable details listed in section “Features /

Benefits” one parameter – the output signal type is fixed.
The output signal range is programmable by PC.

The input configuration and input range also programmable.

As per description differnt parameter setting is possible only

care has to take is the output signal type selected in parameter
setting to be matched with actual product ordered.

15
8. Electrical connections
The electrical connections are made to screw terminals which
are easily accessible from the front of the transmitter (see
2
Fig.6) and can accommodate wire gauges up to 1 x 2.5mm .
