Chapter 1 _________________________________________________________ General Information

Safety
The Vaisala HUMICAP® Moisture and Temperature Transmitter for Oil
MMT330 delivered to you has been tested for safety and approved as
shipped from the factory. Note the following precautions:

WARNING Ground the product, and verify outdoor installation grounding


periodically to minimize shock hazard.

CAUTION Do not modify the unit. Improper modification can damage the product,
lead to malfunction, or make the product noncompliant with applicable
legislation.

ESD Protection
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can cause immediate or latent damage to
electronic circuits. Vaisala products are adequately protected against
ESD for their intended use. However, it is possible to damage the product
by delivering electrostatic discharges when touching, removing, or
inserting any objects inside the equipment housing.

To make sure you are not delivering high static voltages yourself:

- Handle ESD sensitive components on a properly grounded and


protected ESD workbench. When this is not possible, ground yourself
to the equipment chassis before touching the boards. Ground yourself
with a wrist strap and a resistive connection cord. When neither of the
above is possible, touch a conductive part of the equipment chassis
with your other hand before touching the boards.
- Always hold the boards by the edges and avoid touching the
component contacts.

CHAPTER 2
PRODUCT OVERVIEW

This chapter introduces the features, advantages, and the product


nomenclature of the Vaisala HUMICAP® Moisture and Temperature
Transmitter for Oil MMT330.

Introduction to MMT330
Vaisala HUMICAP® Moisture and Temperature Transmitter for Oil
MMT330 provides reliable moisture measurement in a wide range of
applications. The easy-to-install on-line MMT330 transmitter is a
microprocessor-based instrument for the measurement of moisture in
terms of water activity and relative saturation for example in the
lubrication of circulation systems or in transformer oil.

The transmitter incorporates a capacitive thin film sensor, the operation


of which is based on changes in its capacitance as the thin polymer film
absorbs water molecules.

Two analog output signals can be scaled and the measurement ranges
changed within certain limits. Analog outputs can be chosen between
current and voltage signals. Alternatively, digital outputs RS-232
(standard) or RS-422/485 (optional) can be selected. MMT330 also
provides for accurate temperature measurement.

MMT330 can be calibrated against traceable salt solutions and


configured in many ways. It can have either a blank cover or a cover with
a local display and keypad with which the user can operate the
transmitter. Different probe cable lengths are available for varying
installation needs, and the power supply voltage can be selected from
three alternatives.

Typical Applications
Methods Used for Measuring Moisture in Oil
The MMT330 transmitter can measure water in oil in terms of water
activity (aw) and relative saturation (%RS). With the help of internal oil
solubility coefficients, MMT330 is also able to output oil moisture in
ppm (by default supported only for mineral transformer oil).

Water activity indicates the amount of oil in the scale of 0 … 1 aw. In this
scale, 0 aw is an indication of completely water free oil, and 1 aw an
indication of oil fully saturated with water (water is present in free form).

Relative saturation indicates the amount of water oil in the scale of


0 ... 100 %RS. In this scale, 0 %RS is an indication of completely water
free oil and 100 %RS an indication of oil fully saturated with water
(water is present in free form).

The most important feature which distinguishes the measurement of


water activity (aw) and relative saturation (%RS) from the traditional
measurement of absolute water content (in ppm) is that the saturation
point remains stable regardless of the oil type or the aging of oil,
additives used, etc. As water activity exceeds 0.9 aw (or relative
saturation exceeds 90 %RS) in any system, there is a risk for segregation
(especially if the temperature decreases).

Water activity and relative saturation are used for alarming at the point of
>0.9 aw / >90 %RS that the risk for free water in the system is obvious.
The most important advantages of this system are the fact that water
activity and relative saturation are immune to the aging of oil and to
additives, and that the MMT330 transmitter can be used for continuous
on-line measurements. In addition, MMT330 can be calibrated against
salt solutions and no reference oils are needed.

Lubrication Oil in Paper Machines


Typically, a paper machine contains two or three separate lubrication
systems. Usually, one is located at the wet end and the other at the dry
end. There is a certain amount of free moisture constantly present which
means that there is a risk of this moisture becoming into contact with the
machine bearings. The most common reasons for the entrance of water
are an inadequate sealing of the housing and cleaning with high pressure.
However, accidental leakages from oil coolers and other equipment may
also cause damage. In paper machines, the oil should absorb water while
lubricating the bearings and then release this water when collected into
the reservoir.

VAISALA ________________________________________________________________________ 23
User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________

It is to be noted that bearings should never be exposed to oils that have a


high water content; this is especially important during standstill because
the risk for corrosion process increases as the oil temperature decreases.
It is essential to monitor the water content and keep it on a suitable level.

When measuring the water content of oil in paper machines, it would be


useful to measure the water activity before an oil reservoir and from a
pressure line flow. This way, the performance of dehumidifiers can be
kept under control to ensure that no free water reaches the bearings.

Transformer Oil
The determination of moisture in oil is an essential part of a
comprehensive transformer maintenance program. Aging and
deterioration increase the capacity of oil to absorb water. The primary
interest in transformers is to measure the water not in oil but in the
cellulosic insulation around the transformer windings. Heating and
cooling have a considerable effect on moisture levels in oil. While
temperature raises, the paper insulation of transformers tends to loose
moisture which is absorbed by the oil surrounding it. Saturation level is
thus a true indicator of moisture present. The MMT330 method provides
for a reliable detection of the aging of oil and possible leakages.

Oil immersed transformers rely on the oil for cooling, protection from
corrosion and as an important component of their insulation. Excessive
moisture contents in oil causes accelerated ageing of the insulation
materials and reduces their dielectric strength. In extreme cases this can
result in arcing and short circuits within the windings. Accurate moisture
measurements can also warn about leaks in the oil system, as water is
absorbed from the surrounding air.

Heating and cooling of a transformer effect moisture levels in oil. This is


due to the fact that the water solubility of oil is temperature dependent. In
general, water solubility increases as temperature rises: see Figure 4 on
page 25. Changes in temperature affect also on water desorption of the
paper insulation around the transformer windings. Desorption of water
from the insulation increases as temperature rises and the surrounded oil
absorbs desorbed water. Moisture level in oil is thus a true indicator of
moisture present in the paper insulation.
In addition, it must be noted that capacity of oil to absorb water depends
both on the chemical structure of the oil and the additives.

Follow the steps below to install the MMT338 probe through a ball valve
assembly. After the installation, the probe should be sitting in the process
chamber or pipeline as shown in Figure 26 on page 45.

1. Shut down the process if the process pressure is more than 10 bars.
If the pressure is lower there is no need to shut down the process.
2. Close the ball valve.
3. Seal the threads on the fitting body; refer to Figure 24 on page 43.
4. Attach the fitting body to the ball valve and tighten it.
5. Slide the clasp nut of the probe toward the filter, as far as it will go.
6. Insert the probe to the fitting body, and manually tighten the clasp
nut to the fitting body.
7. Open the ball valve.
8. Push the probe through the ball valve assembly into the process. If
the pressure is high, use the pressing handle that is provided with
the probe. If you push the probe hard without using the handle, you
may damage the cable.

Note that the probe must be pushed so deep that the filter is
completely inside the process flow.
9. Mark the fitting screw and the clasp nut.
10. Tighten the clasp nut with a fork spanner a further 50 ... 60º
(ca. 1/6 turn). If you have a suitable torque spanner, tighten the nut
to max 45 ± 5 Nm (33 ± 4 ft-lbs). Refer to Figure 25 on page 43.

NOTE Take care not to tighten the clasp nut more than 60° to avoid difficulties
when opening it.

If you wish to remove the probe from the process, note that you have to
pull the probe out far enough. You cannot close the valve if the groove
on the probe body is not visible.

6. If you use RS-422 or RS-485 to connect just one MMT330 to a
master computer, enable the internal termination of MMT330 by
switching switches 1 and 2 ON. Make sure that the master's end of
the line is also terminated (by using master's internal termination or
with a separate terminator).

If you are connecting many transmitters to the same RS-485 bus,


make sure that switches 1 and 2 are OFF and terminate the bus with
separate terminators at both ends. This allows removing any
transmitter without blocking the bus operation.

NOTE If you use the internal termination of the transmitter at the end of
the RS-485 bus (instead of using separate terminators) removing
that transmitter will block the bus operation.

7. Use the bus type (4-wire/2-wire) to select the selection switch 3.

Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________ Installation

LAN Interface
The optional LAN interface enables an Ethernet connection to the
transmitter. The user can establish a virtual terminal session using a
Telnet client program such as PuTTY or by using Modbus TCP protocol.
When the LAN interface is in use, serial communication using the RS-
232 User Port is disabled.

The LAN interface module must be installed at the factory (when


ordering the transmitter), or by a Vaisala Service Center. Once installed,
the module is automatically used by the transmitter. The physical
connection to the network is made to the RJ45 connector on the LAN
interface module, using a standard twisted pair Ethernet cable
(10/100Base-T). Transmitters with the optional LAN interface are
delivered pre-installed with a suitable cable and cable gland.

The LAN interface can use both static and dynamic network settings. If
the interface is configured to use dynamic settings, the network where the
LAN interface is connected must have a DHCP server that provides the
settings.

The network configuration can be done using the optional display and
keypad, or by using the service port. For instructions, see section LAN
Communication on page 82. The LAN interface also provides a web
configuration interface, which you can access by entering the IP address
of the LAN interface in the address field of a web browser. See section
Web Configuration for LAN and WLAN on page 89.

CAUTION The LAN interface is designed to be used in trusted network


environments (trusted corporate LAN or VPN-based connection over
internet). Avoid connecting the transmitter directly to a public network
because the device can be attacked by a malicious user through the
network.

WLAN Interface
The optional WLAN interface enables a wireless Ethernet connection
(IEEE 802.11b) to the transmitter. The user can establish a virtual
terminal session using a Telnet client program such as PuTTY or by
using Modbus TCP protocol. When the WLAN interface is in use, serial
communication using the RS-232 User Port is disabled.

The interface supports Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) and Wi-Fi


Protected Access (WPA, WPA2). For WEP, 64 and 128 bit encryption is
supported, with open system or shared key authentication. WPA is used
in the Pre-Shared Key (PSK) mode, with either TKIP or CCMP (also
known as AES) encryption.

Similarly to the LAN interface, the WLAN interface can use both static
and dynamic network settings. If the interface is configured to use
dynamic settings, the network where the WLAN interface is connected
must have a DHCP server that provides the settings.

The WLAN interface also provides a web configuration interface, which


you can access by entering the IP address of the WLAN interface in the
address field of a web browser. See section Web Configuration for LAN
and WLAN on page 89.

Chapter 3 ________________________________________________________________ Installation

NOTE The default country setting for the WLAN interface is United States,
which limits the operation to WLAN channels 1 ... 11. To enable
additional channels (12 ... 14), you can change the country setting using
the web configuration interface.

Attaching the WLAN Antenna


The WLAN interface module must be installed at the factory (when
ordering the transmitter), or by a Vaisala Service Center. Before taking
the transmitter into use, you must attach the antenna of the WLAN
interface into the RP-SMA connector on the transmitter cover. The
location of the antenna is shown in Figure 74 on page 167.

Data Logger Module


The optional data logger module extends the data storage for the
measurement data. When the data logger is present, this storage is
automatically used by the transmitter. The stored data can be browsed
using the optional display module, and accessed through the serial
connections. See sections Graphic History on page 68 and Data
Recording on page 111.

The data logger module contains non-volatile flash memory providing


4 years and 5 months of storage for 4 parameters at a 10-second sampling
interval. When the memory is full, the data recording will not stop.
Instead, the oldest data is overwritten. For each parameter and
observation period, the module stores the minimum and maximum values
during the interval, as well a data trend value that is averaged from
samples taken during the interval (see Table 9 on page 63).

Table 9 Observation Periods and Resolution


Observation Period Period for Trend/Max/Min
Calculations (Resolution)
20 minutes 10 seconds
3 hours 90 seconds
1 day 12 minutes
10 days 2 hours
2 months 12 hours
1 year 3 days
4 years 12 days

The quantities that are logged are the same that have been selected for
measurement using the display/keypad or the serial line. When taking the
transmitter into use, verify that the desired quantities are selected. If you
change the quantities later, the transmitter will start logging the new
quantities, and stop logging the quantities that are no longer selected.
Changing the quantities does not delete any measurement data that is

VAISALA ________________________________________________________________________ 63
User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________

already in memory. However, the data of any removed quantity cannot be


accessed unless the quantity is re-activated first.

The data logger module has a real time clock with a battery back-up. The
clock has been set to the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) at the
factory, and its time cannot be set by the user. The data that is stored in
the logger's memory is timestamped using the logger's clock.

When date and time are set on the transmitter, they are stored to the
transmitter's memory as an offset from the time on the logger's clock.
When browsing the stored data, the time offset is applied to the
timestamps shown in the graphical history, and data outputted from the
serial port. The timestamps in the data logger's memory remain as they
were originally stored.

You can compensate for the clock drift (less than ±2 min/year) by setting
the time on the transmitter. This updates the time offset used on the
display and the serial port. You can set the time by using the
keypad/display or the serial commands.

After a reset or a power up, it will usually take at least 10 seconds before
the data logger module is initialized. The instrument will not start up
before the data logger module is ready.

The indicator LED on the module will blink green during normal
operation. If the LED is lit in red color, there is a problem with the
module. The transmitter will also indicate the problem by activating the
"Internal error on add-on module" error. If the module is not operating
correctly, the transmitter must be sent to Vaisala for maintenance.

The data logger module must be installed at the factory (when ordering
the transmitter), or by a Vaisala Service Center. Once installed, the
module is automatically used by the transmitter. When the module
requires a new battery, the transmitter must be sent to Vaisala for
maintenance.

Display Alarms
The Display Alarm feature provides two independently configurable
alarms for transmitters with the display/keypad option. Each alarm tracks
a selected quantity, with freely configurable limit values. Each alarm also
has a configurable hysteresis value to prevent unnecessary triggering
when the measurement fluctuates around an alarm limit. The alarms can
be configured for any quantity supported by the transmitter. The
configuration of the Display Alarms can only be done using the
display/keypad option.

You can have the alarm activate inside or outside the specified range by
setting the limits correctly:

- To have the alarm activate when the measured quantity is outside the
specified range, set the Act. above limit higher than the Act. below
limit.
- To have the alarm activate when the measured quantity is inside the
range, set the Act. above limit lower than the Act. below limit.

The alarm limits are shown on the graph display as thicker dotted lines.
When a display alarm is activated, the automatic scaling of the graph
display always keeps the limits in view.

When an alarm is activated, an alarm note is displayed on the display,


and the lights of the display will blink. If the data logger module is
installed, the alarm note includes the time and date of the alarm.

Service Port Connection


Connection Cables
To connect to the service port, you need a suitable cable with an RJ45
connector. Depending on the connections of your PC, you can either use
the Serial Connection Cable (optional accessory 19446ZZ) or the
USB-RJ45 Serial Connection Cable (optional accessory 219685). The
USB cable enables you to connect the transmitter to a PC via a standard
type A USB port. Note that the USB cable does not enable high speed
data transfer, since the bit rate is limited by the serial interface of the
service port.

Installing the Driver for the USB Cable


Before taking the USB cable into use, you must install the provided USB
driver on your PC. When installing the driver, you must acknowledge
any security prompts that may appear.

1. Check that the USB cable is not connected. Disconnect the cable if
you have already connected it.
2. Insert the media that came with the cable, or download the latest
driver from http://www.vaisala.com/software.
3. Execute the USB driver installation program (setup.exe), and
accept the installation defaults.
4. After the driver has been installed, connect the USB service cable
to a USB port on your PC. Windows will detect the new device,
and use the driver automatically.
5. The installation has reserved a COM port for the cable. Verify the
port number, and the status of the cable, using the Vaisala USB
Instrument Finder program that has been installed in the
Windows Start menu.

Windows will recognize each individual cable as a different device, and


reserve a new COM port. Remember to use the correct port in the
settings of your terminal program.

Communication Protocol
When a connection is established via the LAN or WLAN interface, the
session has the same communication mode, run interval, poll address and
echo settings as the serial port (User Port) session would have.

These settings can be changed using the display/keypad, using the serial
line (User Port or Service Port), or on-the-fly during a Telnet session.

The display menu path to the Communication Protocol settings is:


Main Menu ► Interfaces ► Network Interface ► Communication
Protocol.

The commands for changing the settings are SMODE, INTV, ADDR,
and ECHO.

Web Configuration for LAN and WLAN


The LAN and WLAN interfaces both have a web configuration page that
is accessible using a browser. If you have not disabled the page from the
network settings, you can access it with a web browser at the IP address
of the interface. You can check the currently assigned IP address of the
interface from the device information screens (see Device Information on
page 104), or from the serial line by issuing the net ? command.

When accessing the web configuration page, you must first log in.

Username: user
Password: vaisala

The web configuration page provides similar network configuration


options as the serial line and the display/keypad. It also has additional
options for advanced users. For example, there are more options for
securing the wireless network.

If these additional options are used, they will appear as custom


configurations when viewed from the serial line or the display/keypad.

Starting Continuous Outputting
Enter the R command to start the continuous output of measurements.

R<cr>

Example:
>r
aw= 0.261 T= 23.8 'C H2O= 15 ppm
>

If a value is too long to fit to the allocated space in the output, or if there
is an error in outputting the quantity, the value is displayed with stars ‘*’.

You can change the format of the output with the following commands:

VAISALA ________________________________________________________________________ 95
User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________

- Outputting interval can be changed with the INTV command.


- Output message format can be changed with the FORM command.

Stopping Continuous Outputting


Use the S command to end the RUN mode. After this command all other
commands can be used. You can also press the Esc button or reset the
transmitter to stop the outputting.

S<cr>

See command SMODE to change the default (power-up) operation


mode.

Outputting Reading Once


Use the SEND command to output the reading once in STOP mode.

SEND<cr>

The output format depends on which parameters the transmitter can


output.

Examples:
>send
RS= 45.1% T= 23.8 'C H2O= 15 ppm
>

Assign an Alias for the SEND Command


Use the SCOM command to assign a new command that works like the
SEND command. The standard SEND command of the transmitter will
always function normally whatever the SCOM definition may be.
Command names are case-insensitive.

SCOM<cr>

Example (assigning the command MEASURE as an alias for the SEND


command):
>scom
Send command : ? measure
>measure
aw= 0.261 T= 23.8 'C H2O= 15 ppm
>

You can remove the SCOM definition by pressing Esc when entering the
command name:
>scom
Send command : measure ? <esc>

96 ___________________________________________________________________ M210733EN-H
Chapter 4 _________________________________________________________________ Operation

Outputting Reading Once From All Transmitters


Use the DSEND command to output the reading once from all connected
transmitters that are in STOP or POLL modes. In order to avoid data
collisions, the transmitters will send their response after a suitable delay.
The response includes the transmitters’s address, followed by their
measurement message.

NOTE The total execution time of the DSEND command depends on the bit rate
of the serial port connection. At slow speeds, it will take a considerable
amount of time for devices with large address number to respond. The
delay will be the same even if there are no other devices at all.

DSEND<cr>

Example (transmitters with addresses 3 and 25 responding):


>dsend
3 RS= 41.2% T= 23.8 'C H2O= 15 ppm
25 aw= 0.277 T= 23.5 'C H2O= 16 ppm
>

Communicating with a Transmitter in POLL


Mode
OPEN
When all transmitters on the RS-485 bus are in POLL mode the OPEN
command sets one transmitter temporarily to STOP mode so that other
commands can be entered.

OPEN [aa]<cr>

where
aa = Address of the transmitter (0 ... 99)

CLOSE
The CLOSE command switches the transmitter back to the POLL mode.

Example:
>open 2 (opens the line to transmitter 2, other
transmitters stay in POLL mode)

>? (for example, display device information)


...
>close (line closed)

Data Filtering
The averaging data filter calculates an average over a certain period of
time. The lowest measurement noise is achieved with the extended
filtering. There are three filtering levels available.

Table 26 Filtering Levels


Setting Filtering Level
OFF No filtering (default setting).
STANDARD Standard filtering. Approximately 13 s moving average.
EXTENDED Extended filtering. Approximately 1 min average by
default, but configurable on the serial line.

Using Display/Keypad
1. Press any of the arrow buttons to open the Main Menu.
2. Select Measuring by pressing the ► arrow button.
3. Select Filtering and press CHANGE to confirm your selection.
4. Select Off/Standard/Extended and press SELECT to confirm
your selection.
5. Press EXIT to return to the basic display.

Using Serial Line


Use the serial line command FILT to set the filtering level.

FILT [level] [extfactor]<cr>

where
level = Filtering level. The options are:

OFF (no filtering, default setting)


ON (standard filtering, approximately 13 s moving
average)
EXT (extended filtering, approximately 1 min average by
default but configurable by changing the extfactor)
extfactor = Weighted average factor for extended filtering level.
Range 0 ... 1, default 0.030.

In extended filtering mode, the output is calculated based


on the following formula:
[(new result * extfactor) + (old result * (1.0 - extfactor))]
This means that with extfactor value 1 the transmitter
will take only the latest measurement into account, but
with extfactor value 0.1 a new output is a combination of
the previous output (90%) and the latest measurement
(10%).

SDELAY
With the SDELAY command you can set delay (response time) for user
port, or view currently set delay value. Adjusting the delay may be
needed when half-duplex communication (typically two-wire RS-485) is
used.

The delay value corresponds to tens of milliseconds (for example, 5 =


0.050s minimum answer delay). The value can be set between 0 ... 254.

Example:
>sdelay
Serial delay : 0 ? 10

>sdelay
Serial delay : 10 ?

ECHO
Use the ECHO command to set the user port echo. The command either
enables or disables echo of characters received.

ECHO [x]<cr>

where
x = ON (enabled, default) or OFF (disabled)

NOTE When using the RS-485 interface with a 2-wire connection, always
disable echo. When using a RS-232, RS-422/485 4-wire connection,
LAN, or WLAN, you can enable or disable it as you wish.

Data Recording
Data recording function is always on and collects data automatically into
the memory of the device. If the optional data logger module is installed,
the transmitter uses it automatically. Recorded data does not disappear
from the memory when the power is switched off. Collected data can be
observed in a form of a graph in the graphical view of the display or it
can be listed out by using the serial line or MI70 Link program.

PLAY
Use the PLAY command to output the selected file to the serial line. If
the data logger module is installed, you can specify an interval to be
outputted.

Data in the output is <TAB> delimited. This is compatible with most


spreadsheet programs. Before giving the command, set the local date and
time with TIME and DATE commands, if needed.

PLAY [x] [start_date start_time end_date end_time]<cr>

You can use the <ESC> key to interrupt the output listing.

NOTE Output of large amounts of recorded data can result in huge data files
and take a long time, up to several days for the entire memory of the data
logger at 10 second resolution. To make it easier to process the data it is
recommended to select the largest suitable data interval, and to specify
the start and end times carefully.

Deleting the Recorded Files


You can delete the recorded data files using the keypad/display, or the
DELETE command on the serial line. The deletion is always done for all
data; you cannot delete individual files.

Note that the transmitter automatically overwrites the old data when the
memory is full, so manual deletion of the recorded files is not necessary
in normal use.

To delete the data files using the keypad/display:

1. Press any of the arrow buttons to open the Main Menu.


2. Select System by pressing the ► arrow button.
3. Select Clear graph memories by pressing the CLEAR button.
Press the YES button to confirm the selection.

CAUTION This function clears the entire data history of the transmitter, including
all graphs and the content of the optional data logger module.

UNDELETE
Similarly to the DELETE command, the UNDELETE command is used
without any arguments. It will recover all deleted data that has not been
overwritten yet.

Extend Analog Output Range


Use the AOVER command to allow the analog output channels to
exceed their specified range by 10%. The scaling of the parameter
remains as before; the extra range is used for additional measurement
range in the high end of the scale.

AOVER [ON/OFF]<cr>

Example:
>aover on
Extended output: ON

The following example illustrates how the analog output is affected.


Channel 2 outputs temperature (T) with voltage output 0 … 5 V
(0 … 60 °C). After giving the AOVER ON command, the range is
0 … 5.5 V (0 … 66 °C). Note that the 60 °C point is still at 5 V.

Operation of Relays
Quantity for Relay Output
A relay monitors the quantity chosen for the relay output. Any of the
quantities available can be chosen.

Relay Setpoints
When the measured value is in between the "above" and "below" values,
the relay is passive. When choosing lower value as "above" value and
higher value as "below" value, the relay is passive when the measured
value is not between the setpoints. You can also set only one setpoint.
See Figure 59 on page 122 for illustrative examples of the different
measurement-based relay output modes.

Figure 59 Measurement-Based Relay Output Modes

122 __________________________________________________________________ M210733EN-H


Chapter 4 _________________________________________________________________ Operation

Hysteresis
Hysteresis function is to prevent the relay switching back and forth when
the measured value is near to the setpoint values.

Relay is activated when the measured value passes the exact value of the
setpoint. When returning and passing the setpoint again relay is not
released before the value reaches the setpoint increased/decreased by the
hysteresis value.

Hysteresis should be smaller than difference of the setpoints.

Example: When the 'active above' value aw is 0.6 and the hysteresis value
is 0.05, relay activates when aw reaches 0.60. As the humidity decreases,
relay releases at 0.55.

NOTE If both setpoints are specified and "above" setpoint is lower than
"below" setpoint, the hysteresis works in the opposite direction, that is,
relay is released when the measured value passes the exact value of the
setpoint.

Relay Indicating Transmitter Error Status


You can set a relay to follow the operation status of the device. By
selecting FAULT/ONLINE STATUS for output quantity a relay changes
state on the basis of the operation status as follows:

FAULT STATUS

Normal operation: relay active (C and NO outputs are closed)

Not measuring state (error state or power off): relay released (C and NC
outputs are closed)

ONLINE STATUS
Live measurement (data available): relay active (C and NO outputs are
closed)

No live data (for example: error state, chemical purge or adjustment


mode): relay released (C and NC outputs are closed)

See Figure 60 on page 124 for illustrative examples of the


FAULT/ONLINE STATUSrelay output modes.

CHAPTER 5
MODBUS

This chapter contains information that is needed when operating the


transmitter using the Modbus protocol.

Overview of Modbus Protocol Support


The MMT330 transmitter can be accessed using the Modbus serial
communication protocol. Support for Modbus protocol is available on all
MMT330 transmitters as a standard feature from software version 5.10
onward. The supported Modbus variants and the connections they use are
listed in Table 29 below.

Table 29 Supported Modbus Variants


Supported Modbus Variant Connections
Modbus RTU (Serial Modbus) RS-232 (standard User Port)
RS-422/485 interface (optional module)
Modbus TCP (Ethernet Modbus) LAN interface (optional module)
WLAN interface (optional module)

The supported Modbus functions, registers, configuration options, and


diagnostics are described in Appendix A, Modbus Reference, on page
171.

Note the following limitations of the Modbus implementation:

- Modbus TCP mode accepts only one TCP connection at a time.


Design the system so that only one Modbus TCP client accesses the
transmitter.
- Modbus TCP can process reliably only one Modbus transaction at a
time. Reduce the polling rate of the client to avoid nested transactions.

VAISALA _______________________________________________________________________ 131


User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________

Taking Modbus into Use


To take the Modbus protocol into use on the MMT330, you must perform
some configuration tasks using the built-in display and keypad (optional)
or a PC connected to the serial line. For example, you can connect to the
service port using the USB service cable (Vaisala order code: 219685).
The transmitter must be powered from a suitable power supply during
configuration.

Instructions for performing the configuration are provided in the


following sections:

- Enabling Serial Modbus on page 133


- Enabling Ethernet Modbus on page 134

After configuring the transmitter, perform the transmitter installation and


wiring according to the instructions in Chapter 3, Installation, on page
27.

The configuration instructions assume you are familiar with the use of
the transmitter. Additional details on the display/keypad, service port use,
and serial commands are available in other sections of this manual:

- The use of the display/keypad option is described in section


Display/Keypad (Optional) on page 67.
- If this is the first time you are using the USB service cable, you can
find detailed instructions in section Installing the Driver for the USB
Cable on page 81. You must install the required driver before using
the service cable.
- Configuration of the LAN and WLAN interfaces is decribed in section
LAN Communication on page 82.
- The serial commands available through the service port are described
beginning from section List of Serial Commands on page 93.

Chapter 6 ____________________________________________________________ ppm Conversion

CHAPTER 6
PPM CONVERSION

This chapter contains information on conversion models.

MMT330 ppm Conversion for Transformer Oils


Traditionally, moisture in transformer oil is measured by using ppm
units. The ppm output shows the average mass concentration of water in
oil. MMT330 has an option for ppm output provided that this has been
selected when ordering the transmitter. Vaisala has this conversion
readily available for mineral transformer oils.

Conversion Model with Average Coefficients


The conversion model of the MMT330 is based on the average water
solubility behaviour of transformer oils. The ppm output is calculated as
follows:

ppm = aw x 10 (A/(T+273.16)+B)
where:
aw = Water activity
A,B = Coefficients (average/oil-specific)
T = Temperature (ºC)
Generally, measurements with MMT330 give accuracy better than 10 %
of the reading. If additional accuracy is needed, see section Conversion
Model with Oil-specific Coefficients on page 140.

NOTE The internal calculation in ppm conversion uses aw also when only %RS
output is selected when ordering MMT330.
To convert %RS to aw, divide the %RS quantity by 100:
aw = (%RS / 100)

VAISALA _______________________________________________________________________ 139


User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________

Conversion Model with Oil-specific Coefficients


For additional accuracy, oil-specific conversion model can be used both
for mineral and silicon based oils. An oil sample has to be sent to Vaisala
for modelling. As a result, the specific coefficients (A and B, see formula
1) for the transformer oil are determined by Vaisala. For additional
information, please contact Vaisala.

The determined coefficients of the transformer oil can be programmed to


the MMT330 by Vaisala or by a user according to the instructions
presented in this chapter.

NOTE Conversion Model With Oil-specific Coefficients is always needed for


silicone based oils.

Setting Oil Coefficients Using Serial Line


If the ppm conversion and oil-specific coefficients have been
programmed at Vaisala, the user does not have to set the conversion co-
efficients.

If a user has defined the coefficients or separately received from Vaisala


the oil-specific coefficients A and B, related to the user’s own oil type,
the coefficients can be set to the software of MMT330 by using a serial
bus or through an RS 485/422 serial module or through keypad/display.

OIL
Use the serial line command OIL to set oil-specific parameters for ppm
conversion.

Example:
>oil
Oil[0] : -1662.6999 ?
Oil[1] : 7.3694 ?
>

where
Oil [0] corresponds to parameter A
Oil [1] corresponds to parameter B

Determination of Oil-Specific Coefficients


The equation of the ppm calculation is:

ppm = aw*10(B+A/T)

With the following procedure the coefficients A and B can be defined for
the equation:

LOG(PPMsat)= B + A/T

Equipment needed:

- Apparatus for determining water content ( for example, coulometric


titrator and e.g. magnetic stirrer.)
- Oil test station:
- a temperature test chamber
- for example, a conical flask (1L) sealed by PTFE stopper with
an inlet for a moisture probe
- MMT330 by Vaisala
- magnetic stirrer.
Procedure:

1. Define the water content of the oil sample with the titration. Use
the oil moisture level that is close to real conditions in the process.
2. Measure the water activity of this sample with MMT330 at two
temperatures that differ at least 20 °C. Follow the measurement
stabilization illustrated by the graph.

NOTE The sample has to be sealed very carefully. If the sample is in contact
with ambient air, its water content will be affected.

VAISALA _______________________________________________________________________ 141


User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________

NOTE If the oil sample is very dry and the temperatures are close to each other,
it may cause inaccuracy to the calculation model. In order to get the best
possible performance it is recommended to use oil conditions that
represent real conditions in application. Recommended values for
sample are aw approx. 0.5 at 20 °C.

3. Define the correlation between aw, T and PPM (w/w) from the
measured values. Calculate A and B according to the following
example.

LOG ( PPM sat [T 2] ) - LOG ( PPM sat [T 1] )


A=
1 / (T 2) - 1 / (T 1)

B = LOG ( PPM sat [T 1] ) - A/T1

Example:

measured water content 213 ppm

T (°C) aw ppmsaturation
24.1 0.478 213/0.478 = 445.6067
57.6 0.188 213/0.188 = 1132.979

A = (LOG(1132.98)-LOG(445.607))/(1/(57.6+273.16)-
1/(24.1+273.16)) = -1189.4581

B= LOG(445.607)-(-1189.4581)/(24.1 + 273.16) = 6.6503583

Assumptions:

The isoterm of water activity versus water concentration is linear and the
solubility curve has the form of the given equation.

CHAPTER 7
MAINTENANCE

This chapter provides information that is needed in basic maintenance of


MMT330.

Periodic Maintenance
Cleaning
Clean the transmitter enclosure with a soft, lint-free cloth moistened with
mild detergent.

Clean the sensor before storing the MMT330 probe and before
calibration. For cleaning of the probe you need instrument air and
heptane (C7H16) liquid. Dry with instrument air to prevent oxidation of
the oil on the sensor. The oxidation of the oil on the sensor can cause
extended response times or drifting.

1. Blow the probe with instrument air (with filter attached) to remove
the remains of the oil.
2. Immerse the probe into heptane liquid and rinse out the oil (for 1
minute maximum).
3. Dry the probe with instrument air. In case you are going to
calibrate the probe, remove the filter and dry the sensor with
instrument air. Check that the sensor looks clean.

Changing the Probe Filter


1. Turn the filter counter-clockwise to loosen it.
2. Remove the filter from the probe. Be careful not to touch the sensor
with the filter. Without the filter in place, the sensor is easily
damaged – handle the probe carefully.
3. Install a new filter on the probe. When using the stainless steel
filter, take care to tighten it properly (recommended force 5 Nm).
New filters can be ordered from Vaisala, see section Spare Parts and
Accessories on page 164.

VAISALA _______________________________________________________________________ 143


User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________

Changing the Sensor


The user can change HUMICAP® 180L2 sensors. Changing the sensor
should be considered corrective maintenance, and it is not necessary in
normal operation. If the accuracy of the transmitter does not seem to be
within specification, it is more likely that the transmitter is in need of
calibration and adjustment, and not sensor replacement. Refer to chapter
Calibration and Adjustment on page 149.

1. Remove the filter from the probe. See the instructions in section
Changing the Probe Filter on page 143.
2. Remove the damaged sensor and insert a new one. Handle the new
sensor by the plastic socket. DO NOT TOUCH THE SENSOR
PLATE.
3. Perform a calibration and adjustment as instructed in section

CHAPTER 8
CALIBRATION AND ADJUSTMENT

This chapter provides information that is needed in calibration and


adjustment of the product.

The MMT330 is fully calibrated and adjusted as shipped from factory.


The calibration interval depends on the application. When measuring
moisture in transformer oil, the recommended calibration interval is
3 years. It is recommended that calibration is done always when there is a
reason to believe that the device is not within the accuracy specifications.

The user can calibrate the MMT330 or send it to Vaisala for calibration.
For contact information of Vaisala Service Centers, see
www.vaisala.com/servicecenters.

Calibration and adjustment is carried out either by using the push-keys on


the motherboard, through the serial port or with the optional
display/keypad.

NOTE The moisture in oil measurements are calibrated by performing a relative


humidity (RH) calibration using reference gases. See Relative Humidity
Adjustment on page 151.

Before the calibration the used sensor should be cleaned with instrument
air to blow out existing oil or gently first flush with hepthane (C7H16) and
dry with instrument air to decrease response time.

NOTE It is important to clean the sensor before calibration as an oily sensor can
contamine the salt bath and change the reference condition.

Vaisala HUMICAP® hand-held moisture and temperature in oil meter


MM70 can also be used for calibration.

VAISALA _______________________________________________________________________ 149

Appendix A _________________________________________________________ Modbus Reference

APPENDIX A
MODBUS REFERENCE

This appendix describes the Modbus functions and data of the


transmitter.

Function Codes
MMT330 supports all Modbus conformance class 0 and class 1 function
codes defined in Open Modbus/TCP Specification, Release 1.0.

Table 34 Supported Function Codes


Function Code Name Notes
01 (0x01) Read Coils Class 1
02 (0x02) Read Discrete Inputs Class 1
03 (0x03) Read Holding Registers Class 0
04 (0x04) Read Input Registers Class 1
05 (0x05) Write Single Coil Class 1
06 (0x06) Write Single Register Class 1
07 (0x07) Read Exception Status Class 1
08 (0x08) Diagnostics
15 (0x0F) Write Multiple Coils Class 2
16 (0x10) Write Multiple Registers Class 0
22 (0x16) Mask Write Register Class 2
23 (0x17) Read/Write Multiple Registers Class 2
43 / 14 (0x2B / 0x0E) Read Device Identification

Class 0 function codes are enough to access all measurement data and
configuration settings of the MMT330 transmitter. In addition, all class 1
and some class 2 commands are also supported giving better
compatibility and allowing more efficient communication when needed.

Modbus diagnostic and device identification data can be read out only
with the function codes dedicated for those purposes (08 and 43 / 14).

VAISALA _______________________________________________________________________ 171


User's Guide _______________________________________________________________________

Register Map
All data available via the Modbus interface is grouped in six contiguous
blocks of registers as described in Table 35 below.

Table 35 MMT330 Modbus Register Blocks


Address Data Format Description
0001…0068 32-bit IEEE float Measurement data (read-only)
0257…0290 16-bit signed integer
0513…0517 Bit field Status registers (read-only)
0769…0790 32-bit IEEE float Configuration settings
1025…1035 16-bit signed integer
1281…1288 Bit field Configuration flags

The addresses are 1-based decimal Modbus data model addresses without
the first digit (e.g. 0xxxx, 1xxxx, 3xxxx, or 4xxxx). Subtract 1 to get
address field values used in Modbus Protocol Data Unit (PDU).

The register map is the same for all Modbus function codes. For
example, function codes 03 and 04 return exactly same result, as do
01 and 02.

Function codes 01 and 02 return 0 if the corresponding register has value


0x0000 and 1 if the register is non-zero. Writing with function codes 05
or 15 effectively writes value 0x0000 or 0x0001 in the register(s).

Data Encoding
All numeric values are available both in 32-bit IEEE floating point and
16-bit signed integer formats.

32-Bit Floating Point Format


Floating point values are represented in standard IEEE 32-bit floating
point format. Least-significant 16 bits of floating point numbers are
placed at the smaller Modbus address as specified in Open Modbus TCP
Specification, Release 1.0. This is also known as “little-endian” or
“Modicon” word order.

NOTE Despite the specification, some Modbus masters may expect


“big-endian” word order (most-significant word first). In such case, you
must select “word-swapped” floating point format in your Modbus
master for MMT330 Modbus registers.

A “quiet NaN” value is returned for unavailable values. Writing any NaN
or infinite value is silently ignored. A quiet NaN is, for example,
0x7FC00000; however, the master should understand any NaN value.

Appendix A _________________________________________________________ Modbus Reference

NOTE A complete 32-bit floating point value should be read and written in a
single Modbus transaction (e.g. function codes 05, 06, and 22 do not
have an effect on floating point values).

16-Bit Integer Format


16-bit integer values are scaled to include the necessary decimals
(see corresponding register table for the scaling factor). Negative values
(when applicable) are represented in 2’s complement (65535 = -1, 65534
= -2, etc.).

NOTE Measurement parameters with normally positive values (for example,


0 … 1 aw) may occasionally return small negative values because of
measurement inaccuracy. These negative values are returned as large 16-
bit integer values (2’s complement).

If the scaled value does not fit in the range 0…65535 (16-bit range), the
value is “wrapped” to the range by adding or subtracting 65536 as many
times as needed.

However, most of the measurement data values do not need any offset.

A zero 16-bit value is returned for unavailable values. There is no way to


distinguish missing values from actual zero values if the zero value is
included in the valid measurement range of the parameter.

NOTE If your Modbus master supports 32-bit floating point values, always use
them instead of 16-bit integer registers.
The use of 16-bit integer values is not recommended in critical
applications because you cannot distinguish true zero values from zero
values generated by measurement failures.
In addition to this, 2’s complement makes negative values look like large
positive values, which must be taken into account when utilizing the
16-bit register values.

When writing 16-bit values in configuration registers, they are always


processed as signed integers in the range of -32768…+32767. You shall
use the floating point registers to write values outside this 16-bit signed
integer range. Maximum writable value is 32767 also for configuration
registers that do not accept negative values.

Measurement Data (Read-Only)


Table 36 Measurement Data Registers
Name Float Integer Unit
T 0003…0004 0258 (×0.01) °C
aw 0029…0030 0271 (×0.0001)
%RS 0041...0042 0277 (x0.01) %
H2O 0035…0036 0274 (×1) ppm

Available measurements depend on the instrument configuration. Values


may be unavailable also in case of device failure. Read status registers or
exception status outputs to check for failures.

NOTE Only real-time data can be read from the instrument. Data that is
recorded in the transmitter’s memory (internal memory or data logger
module) cannot be read through Modbus.

Status Registers (Read-Only)


Table 37 Status Registers
Name Address Description
Fault status 0513 1 = No errors
Online status 0514 1 = Online data available
Error code (bits 15…0) 0516 Bit field that represents the
Error code (bits 31…16) 0517 error codes listed in Table 30
on page 146. Active errors are
set to 1. For example, if bit 14
is set to 1, error code E14 is
active.

Error information can retrieved also with function code 08, sub-function
02.

NOTE Basic status information of the MMT330 transmitter is also available


with the Read Exception Status function code 07. For details, see section
Exception Status Outputs on page 175.

Configuration Registers
Configuration parameter registers are used to configure the measurement.
Writing out-of-range values is silently ignored.

Table 38 Configuration Parameter Registers


Name Float Integer Valid Range
Oil-A 0777…0778 1029 (×0.01) ±99999.99
Oil-B 0779…0780 1030 (×0.0001) ±99.9999

Appendix A _________________________________________________________ Modbus Reference

Non-metric units are not available on Modbus. If they are needed,


calculate the conversion outside the transmitter.

Configuration flags are used to select some basic options of the


instrument and to manually start the sensor operations.

Table 39 Configuration Flag Registers


Name Address Description
Standard filtering on/off 1281 1 = Filtering on
Extended filtering on/off 1282 1 = Extended filtering on

Flags 1281 and 1282 are mutually exclusive.

Some of the configuration registers might not have an effect depending


on the instrument model and configuration.

Other configuration settings are not usually needed and are not available
using the Modbus interface. The service cable must be used to change
other configuration settings if needed.

Exception Status Outputs


Exception status outputs (read with function code 07) tell the summary of
the MMT330 transmitter status as described in Table 40 below.

Table 40 MMT330 Exception Status Outputs


Output Name Description
0 (0x01) Fault status 1 = No errors
1 (0x02) Online status 1 = Online data available

Status information is available also with register access; see section


Status Registers (Read-Only) on page 174.

Diagnostic Sub-Functions
MMT330 supports some of the Modbus diagnostic functions described in
the Modbus Application Protocol Specification V1.1b. These diagnostic
functions are accessed with function code 08. See Table 41 below for
details.

Table 41 MMT330 Modbus Diagnostics


Code Sub-Function Name Notes
00 (0x00) Return Query Data
01 (0x01) Restart Communications Cancels the “Listen Only” mode.
Option
Data field must be set to “00 00”
for Restart Communications
Option. Sub-Function 01 with
data field “FF 00” is rejected.
02 (0x02) Return Diagnostic Register Non-zero if there are active
transmitter errors.

For same error information, see


status registers 0516 and 0517.
The value of the Diagnostic
Register is a logical OR of these
two status registers.
04 (0x04) Force Listen Only Mode Puts device “off-line”
10 (0x0A) Clear Counters and Diagnostic Register cannot be
Diagnostic Register cleared
11 (0x0B) Return Bus Message Count Total number of messages seen
on the bus/interface
12 (0x0C) Return Bus Communication Number of messages with bad
Error Count Modbus RTU CRC or Modbus
TCP frame
13 (0x0D) Return Bus Exception Error Number of Modbus exception
Count responses sent
14 (0x0E) Return Slave Message Count Number of Modbus messages
processed
15 (0x0F) Return Slave No Response Number of Modbus messages
Count received without sending a
response. This happens for
received broadcast messages
(Modbus RTU only) or when
MMT330 is in the “Listen Only”
mode.

Although Modbus Diagnostics are standardized only for serial line


devices, MMT330 supports the same diagnostic functions also on
Modbus TCP.

NOTE Resetting, powering up the transmitter, or reselecting the Modbus mode


(by serial command or with the user interface) resets all Modbus
diagnostic counters and cancels any “Listen Only” mode.

Accessing unavailable (unsupported or temporarily missing) registers


inside ranges specified in Table 36 does not generate an exception.
“Unavailable” value (a quiet NaN for floating point data or zero for
integer data) is returned instead. An exception is generated only for any
access outside the register blocks defined in section Register Map on
page 172.
