5.1 Applications
Digital devices are used for monitoring of set temperature limits, for example, and output of
alarm messages.
In addition to temperature monitoring, digital devices also offer an effective option for
two-step and three-step control. Two-step control allows the devices to be used as heating
thermostats, for example. As three-step controllers, the devices switch over automatically, for
example, between heating and air-conditioning, depending on the temperature.
Digital devices with up to three resistance temperature sensors are designed specifically
to monitor motor windings and motor bearings, but can also be used in all applications
requiring up to three sensors.
The devices are used in the following applications and more:
• Protection of plants and the environment
• Exhaust temperature monitoring
• Temperature monitoring in control cabinets
• Frost monitoring
• Temperature limits for process variables
• Control of plants and machinery
• Motor monitoring
• Bearing monitoring
• Gear oil monitoring
• Monitoring of coolants
• Packaging industry
• Electroplating
• Air-conditioning systems
• Ventilation systems
• Solar collectors
• Heat pumps
• Hot water supply
• Panel building
• Rail
• Shipbuilding

5.3 Standard function

5.2 General functions

The temperature monitoring relays record the temperature with the aid of temperature sensors
immersed in the medium. The temperature is evaluated by the device and monitored for
overshoot or undershoot of a limit.
For digital devices, the temperature can also be monitored within an adjustable working
range (window monitoring).
The digital device in "standalone" mode is designed for one sensor and can be adjusted by
means of a display menu. In addition to temperature monitoring, this device also offers an
effective option for two- and three-step control. The two-step control allows the devices to
be used as heating thermostats, for example. As three-step controllers, the devices switch
over automatically, for example, between heating and air-conditioning, depending on the
temperature.
The digital device together with the sensor expansion module 3RS2900 (for up to three
sensors with up to two limits) (see Sensor expansion module (Page 65)), is a digitally
adjustable system that evaluates up to three resistance temperature sensors simultaneously.
The devices were developed specifically for motor monitoring (motor windings, motor
bearings), but are also very suitable for other applications with up to three sensors.
Digital devices for one sensor with up to two limits can be used as two-step or three-step
temperature controllers as an alternative to temperature controllers in the low-end area.

Power supply:
The digital device 3RS2600 and the sensor expansion module 3RS2900 (see Sensor
expansion module (Page 65)) are operated with a control voltage of 24 V AC/DC up to
240 V AC/DC, depending on the version.
The digital device with the IO-Link interface 3RS2800 (see Digital devices with IO-Link
(Page 51)) is supplied directly by the IO-Link Master (L+/L-) or via an external 24 V DC
voltage source. This basic unit can also be operated without IO-Link communication.

5.3 Standard function

Temperature monitoring curve
If the temperature reaches the set limit ϑ1, the output relay K1 will change its switching state.
The output relay K2 correspondingly responds to reaching the lower limit value ϑ2. The delay
time is adjustable.
The output relays return immediately to their original state once the temperature reaches the
respective hysteresis value (automatic reset).
Each of the two limit values ϑ1 and ϑ2 is set for overshoot or undershoot to be monitored.
This means that a limit value is used to output a warning indicating that a limit value is about

to be overshot or undershot. The other limit value results in a disconnection. A two-step or

three-step control can also be implemented with digital devices.

Note
Identical setting of the limit values ϑ1 and ϑ2
You can also set the limit values ϑ1 and ϑ2 identically.
In this case both relays switch simultaneously.

The following diagnostic states are displayed:

• Sensor wire break
• Sensor short-circuit (resistance sensors)
• Internal device fault

5.4 Special functions

5.4.1 Safety function

The 3RS2 device is designed as a temperature limiter (see Temperature limiter TB (Page 28))
and for the temperature monitoring as a temperature monitor (see Temperature monitor TW
(Page 30)) according to EN 14597.
The mode of action is type 2.B, 2.K, 2.P, 2V (TB), 2.H (TB).
Only sensors tested in accordance with EN 14597 (EN 60730-2-9) may be used to set up a
complete RS (control device) function in accordance with EN 14597.
The 3RS2 evaluation unit sets a reserve of 2 °C for resistance sensors and 3 °C for
thermocouples, i.e. in the during limit violation monitoring, the device would react 2 °C /
3 °C earlier for safety reasons.

Note
The offset functionality allows calibration of the device.
The calibration of the entire measuring chain, including sensor, must be carried out by the user.

A warning limit value "Overshoot" / "Undershoot" is displayed on an integral LCD. At the same
time the integrated safety-related output switches the system to a safe operating state.
The safety function of the digital device is based on the overshooting and undershooting of
limits and corresponds with:
• SIL 1 (IEC 61508)
• PL c (ISO 13849)

3RS2 temperature monitoring relay

Digital devices
5.4 Special functions

On a digital device 3RS2600 and on digital device with IO-Link 3RS2800 a 3-digit code
protects the "Parameter change" function.
The safety function is based on the quiescent current principle.

WARNING
Safe state
The basis of the safety function is the definition of the safe state. In the case of temperature
monitoring relays, this is the "OFF state", meaning that an open contact or the shutdown of the
actuators in the case of sensors.
For safety functions you must only use the NO contact!

5.4.2 Temperature limiter TB

The temperature limiter (TB) is a device function that locks the device continuously after
tripping. If the sensor temperature overshoots or undershoots the limit by the amount of the
hysteresis, a reset is possible.
This function is only available if at least two sensors are activated and the expansion module
is therefore active. In this case the inputs for the TC sensors and the analog input 4 ... 20 mA
are deactivated.

The following settings can be specified:

• Monitoring for overshoot
• Monitoring for undershoot
• Hysteresis
If the relay output (K1) between the terminals 11C and 14NO is switched off (quiescent

The temperature monitor (TW) is a device function in which the device is automatically reset on
activation, as soon as the sensor temperature has overshot or undershot the set limit by the
hysteresis value.
The possible settings include the monitoring for limit value overshoot and undershoot, as
well as the monitoring of the hysteresis. If the relay output (K1) between terminals 11C and
14NO (quiescent current principle) is switched off, the device is in the safe operating state.
A parameter change is prevented by a 3-digit code.

• INPUT: Temperature measuring input (active)

– T1 (default setting)
– EX.UNIT → on/off → ON = 1T. → 2T. → 3T. → 1T. + 2T. → 1T. + 3T. → 2T. + 3T. → 1T. + 2T.
+ 3T. → 4 ... 20 mA
– T1 is the sensor input of the first temperature sensor on the 3RS26/28 with the terminal
markings "T1/T-", "T2/T+" and "T3".
– T2 is the sensor input of the second temperature sensor on the 3RS26/28 with the

The offset can be set separately for each active input
When using thermocouples you can select an internal reference integrated in the device or
an external reference.
If the internal reference is selected, the comparison measurement of the cold end of the
thermocouple ("cold junction") takes place in the device. When the external reference is
selected, the cold junction of the thermocouple is assumed to be located outside the device.
The comparison temperature can be set manually on the device in this case. It must be noted
that a discrepancy between the actual temperature at the cold junction of the thermocouple
and the manually selected reference temperature can impair the temperature measurement
in this situation. This means the cold junction of the thermocouple must be at a constant
temperature (e.g. in the laboratory or similar).
– -25 °C ... +80 °C; -13 °F ... +176 °F (default setting: 0 °C)
• CONTRAST: Setting of the display contrast: -10 ... +10 (default setting: 0)

• TEST: Device test in accordance with IEC 60079-17

– Yes
– No
• TEACH: Calibration of measuring circuits 1 and 2
Enables the adaptation of the settings for the values of the overshoot and undershoot
monitoring to the current values of the measured temperature. The setting ranges of the
values depend on the types of sensor selected. You must not exceed the measurement
ranges of the sensors in use.
The limit values are set as follows (referenced in each case to the currently measured sensor
temperature):
– On temperature overshoot: ϑ2 = +5%; ϑ1 = +10%
– On temperature undershoot: ϑ2 = -5%; ϑ1 = -10%
– On temperature overshoot: ϑ1 = +10%; ϑ2 = -10 %
The measured value of the temperature measuring inputs T1/T4 is adopted as a template. If
the temperature measuring input T1 is inactive, the measured value of the temperature
measuring input T2 is adopted. If T1 and T2 are inactive, the measured value of the
temperature measuring input T3 is adopted.

5.10.4 Reset
Reset is only possible if the temperature does not exceed / fall below the set values including the
set hysteresis.
• Automatic reset: The corresponding relays are automatically reset
• Manual reset: Press the Back button → confirm with "yes" or "no"
• Remote reset via IO-Link (3RS2800): The outputs are reset via IO-Link using the "Reset"
control command (see Process image output (PIQ) and input (PII) (Page 105)).
• Remote reset via floating NO contact (Y1+) between Y1/Y2 (3RS2600)

WARNING
Hazardous Voltage
The cables Y1/Y2 are connected directly to the supply voltage.

A reset is carried out when the contacts Y1 and Y2 are closed by a short pulse (300 ms ... 2000
ms) using a NO contact.
A short circuit that lasts > 5 minutes generates an error message. If RESET between Y1/Y2 is
permanently closed, the error message 0xB703 is issued. The error can then only be
remedied by disconnecting the voltage at the terminal.

3RS2 temperature monitoring relay

50 Equipment Manual, 10/2023, A5E42462552002A/RS-AC/003
Digital devices with IO-Link 6
6.1 Performance characteristics
The 3RS2800-.BA40 temperature monitoring relays for IO-Link offer the complete functionality
of the 3RS2600 digital devices and many other performance features in addition to monitoring
functions:
• Measured value transmission (including resolution and unit) to the higher-level control.
Local display and transmission of the temperature unit (°C or °F) can be parameterized. The
temperature measured value transferred from temperature monitoring relays with more
than one resistance sensor can be adjusted. Some device versions allow you to set which
value is transferred cyclically.
• Transmission of alarm flags to the higher-level control
• Comprehensive diagnostics capability by querying the precise cause of the error in the
diagnostic data record
• Remote parameterization is also possible (instead of local parameter assignment)
• Fast parameterization of identical devices by duplicating the parameter assignment in the
higher-level control
• Parameter transfer by means of Upload to the higher-level control via IO-Link call or by
parameter server1) (only when using an IO-Link master as of
IO‑Link Communication Specification V1.1 or higher)
• Blocking of local parameterization via IO-Link possible
• To prevent automatic startup after a power failure and to avoid losing diagnostic data, errors
can be configured so that they are saved to non-volatile memory.
• Linking to a higher-level control makes it possible to assign parameters to the monitoring
relays via a display unit. The measured values can be displayed directly in a control room or
at the machine/control cabinet.
• By means of IO-Link the devices can also be connected to the Siemens "MindSphere" open IoT
operating system.
1) The parameter server provides an assurance of consistent central data management in
the event of changes to parameters (made locally or via the control). The "Parameter server"
function supports the automatic backup of parameter data (automatic re-assignment of
parameter data if a device is replaced).
Up until now, using redundant sensors and/or analog signal converters to transfer measured
values to a higher-level control incurred significant additional expense and wiring effort.
Combining the autonomous monitoring relay with IO-Link communication reduces this
wiring effort and lowers costs.
As the availability of up-to-date measured values means that the higher-level control can
take care of the control tasks within the plant, the continued availability of the output relays
on the monitoring relays increases the plant's operational reliability (e.g. by shutting down
the plant if limits are exceeded that should not even be reached under normal operating
conditions).

Equipment Manual, 10/2023, A5E42462552002A/RS-AC/003 51
Digital devices with IO-Link
6.3 Connection options for IO‑Link

The monitoring relays continue to function autonomously in spite of the IO-Link connection.
Parameters can be assigned locally at the device, independently of a higher-level control.
As long as the 24 VDC supply voltage is available, the monitoring relays will function if the
controller fails or is not yet available.

6.2 Communication
The communication between the digital basic unit with IO-Link and the sensor expansion
module is wireless by means of an infrared interface integrated in both devices.

6.3 Connection options for IO‑Link

The IO-Link device is connected to the IO-Link master via the removable terminal and supplied
with 24 V DC via this connection.

DANGER
Hazardous voltage!
If voltages are too high, the IO-Link device can be damaged and electric shock can result.
Use only power supplies that comply with the requirements of protective extra-low voltage
(PELV in accordance with IEC EN 50178).

DANGER
Hazardous voltage!
Will cause death or serious injury.
Turn off and lock out power before working on this equipment.

There are two options for supplying the monitoring relay with voltage via the control circuit:

Option 1: Connection to IO-Link master

Connect the IO-Link device to the master via the three cables L+, C, and L-. The IO‑Link device
is supplied with voltage via the 2 cables L+ and L-. The monitoring relay communicates with
the master via cable C.

Option 2: Direct voltage supply with 24 V DC

If no master is available, you can operate the IO-Link device with a 24 V DC voltage source.
For this purpose, connect the IO-Link device with the voltage source via the two cables L+
and L-. Since cable C is not used in this case, communication via IO-Link is not possible.
The pin assignments of the available IO-Link devices are described in the relevant product
chapters.

6.7 Module replacement

6.7.1 Module replacement (replacement of an IO‑Link device)

Parameter data and configuration data specially optimized for a specific application are stored in
an IO‑Link Device. This data deviates in many cases from the default values stored in the
IO‑Link Device.
In the event of replacement of an IO-Link Device (referred to below as "module"), the
optimized data must be transferred to the new module.
Data can be transferred via two channels:
• Module replacement with PG/PC
• Module replacement without PG/PC

6.7.2 Module replacement with PG/PC

In the event of a replacement, a PG/PC is available with the SIMATIC project of the plant.
With the data stored in the SIMATIC project, and the S7-PCT, you transfer the parameters
belonging to the replaced Device to the new Device.

6.7.3 Module replacement without PG/PC

Requirements
Install the demo project "IOL-CALL". You can download the "IOL-CALL" and the description from
the Internet (https://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/33102519/133100) .
• Copy the IO-Link Call function block FB1 (including data block DB10) to a STEP 7 project.
• Use the IO-Link Call function block FB1 as described in the demo project.

 Digital devices with IO-Link
6.9 Acyclic data exchange with the FB IOL_CALL

Procedure
On completion of commissioning, a PG/PC with the project is no longer available. For backing up
and restoring the parameter data and configuration data from or to a module, the function block
(FB) "IOL_Call" is available for the SIMATIC controllers of the S7-300 and S7-400 families.
With this function block, you back up all relevant data sets of a module after commissioning,
in a data block (DB), for example. In the event of a replacement, you write the relevant data
from the data block to the replaced module with the IOL_Call.
Refer to Chapter Process data and data sets (Page 105) for data sets to be backed up for a
module.

Note
An IO-Link Device is a module that communicates with the IO-Link master via its communication
connection. With the special cases "SIRIUS 3RA64/65 compact starter " and "SIRIUS
3RA2711 function modules", where group formations of up to four starters are possible, the
above information refers to the replacement of the first load feeder. Replacement of load feeders
2 to 4 of a group of four does not require any supplementary measures.

Automatic saving of parameter data

If IO-Link masters meeting IO‑Link Communication Specification V1.1 are available, the
"Parameter server" function can be used to back up parameter data from the devices
automatically on the server. When devices are replaced, this parameter data is written back to
the new device automatically on system startup. The monitoring relay for IO-Link supports this
functionality as standard.

6.8 Integration into the SIMATIC environment

Integration of the IO-Link device into the SIMATIC environment

Faceplates embedded in a demo project are offered for download for human machine
interfacing and diagnostics for Siemens IO‑Link Devices in conjunction with a SIMATIC and
WinCC flexible 2008.
The faceplates can be transferred from the demo project to your own WinCC flexible 2008
project.
Faceplates are available for the process data and the diagnostics data.

6.9 Acyclic data exchange with the FB IOL_CALL

Tasks of the IO-Link Call function block FB1

For acyclic data exchange, the function block "IOL-CALL" is available as a download for
controllers of the S7-1200 and S7-1500 families.

Sensor expansion module 7
7.1 Versions
The sensor expansion module is an optional module for expanding the input and output
capacity of the system.
It provides two additional temperature inputs for resistance sensors, one relay output for
output of the sensor status and an additional 4 mA ... 20 mA current input.

Note
If the current input 4 ... 20 mA is selected, the other inputs are inactive.

The power supply for the external temperature sensor with current output 4 ... 20 mA must
be provided externally.
A maximum of two resistance sensors can be connected to the sensor expansion module. In
connection with the digital device, up to three resistance sensors can then be connected.
The sensor expansion module is positioned directly to the right of the digital device. See
Chapter Mounting position, installation width/overall depth, layout (Page 91).

Thermocouples 8
8.1 Definition
A thermocouple is a sensor for electrical temperature monitoring. It is made from two different
interconnected metals. A difference in temperature between the points where the two metals
come into contact (measuring junction) and the evaluation unit produces a thermal e.m.f. that
is directly dependent on this difference (Seebeck effect). As well as the difference in
temperature, the types of metal used also determine the thermal e.m.f. Different types of metal
can be combined to create thermocouples with different measuring ranges.
A typical example is the type K thermocouple, which is made from a nickel/chrome wire and a
nickel/aluminum wire. The thermal e.m.f. is approx. 4 mV/100 K.
The main advantage of thermocouples is the wide temperature range they are able to cover.

8.2 Characteristic curves of thermocouples

Resistance sensors 9
9.1 Definition
A resistance sensor is an electrical component which uses the temperature dependency of the
electrical resistance of a conductor to measure temperature.
Different types of resistance sensors are available: PTC (positive temperature coefficient) and
NTC (negative temperature coefficient).
PTC thermistors (e.g. Pt100/Pt1000 or KTY83/KTY84) are most commonly used in industrial
temperature measurement applications.
The characteristic curve of KTY type resistance sensors is considerably less linear than that
of Pt sensors. However, it exhibits a change in resistance in the event of temperature
fluctuations that is approximately twice as high. KTY type resistance sensors are, therefore,
highly sensitive but have a relatively small temperature measuring range.

9.2 Characteristic curves

The following characteristic curves show the temperature ranges of resistance sensors:

WARNING
Hazardous voltage
Causes electric shock and burns when touched.
Turn off and lock out all power supplying the system and device before working on the device.

Note
The following figures are schematic representations
The figures below show a 22.5 mm enclosure. The overall width, overall depth, terminals (type
and number of terminals) and accessories and mounted components are similar and may differ
from the actual product.

11.2 General information

Special feature of the spring-type terminal:
Spring-type terminals are used for fast, vibration-proof wiring without the need for tools and
with cable routing and terminal operation from the same direction.

Replacement of terminals:
Individual terminals can be replaced not only in the case of screw-type connections, but also
in the case of spring-type connections (with push-in function). This process minimizes the
wiring overhead – only the individual terminal concerned needs to be rewired, not the entire
device.

 Connection
11.9 Connect the spring-type terminal (push-in)

To make optimum use of available terminal space, you are advised to choose a form of
crimping that creates a corresponding rectangular contour. Trapezoidal crimping is highly
suitable in this case.
When a conductor is used that utilizes the full overall height, the terminal spring is deflected
to the maximum. It may therefore be difficult to remove this conductor because it requires
further deflection of the spring.

WARNING
Hazardous voltage
Can cause death, serious injury, or property damage.
Turn off and lock out all power supplying this device before working on this device.

The spring-type (push-in) connections allow wiring without tools for rigid conductors or
conductors equipped with end sleeves.
For wiring finely-stranded or stranded conductors without end sleeves on spring-type (push-
in) terminals, a screwdriver is required to open the spring terminal.

Tool

Selection of the temperature range and the sensor type

Analog variants 3RS25

With an analog device you can use not only Pt100 sensors, but also thermocouples (J, K).
Overshoot/undershoot, hysteresis and the measuring range are adjustable. You can use
Pt1000 sensors only with the digital devices.
The maximum cable length for resistance sensors with a cable diameter of 1.5 mm² is 500 m.

Digital versions 3RS26 and 3RS28 with display

Digital versions are suitable for all common resistance sensors and thermocouples (see
Sensor types (Page 33)).

Sensor expansion module

You can connect the two additional resistance sensors with the sensor expansion module.
This results in a total of three usable resistance sensors in combination with a 3RS26/3RS28
digital device.

Glossary

ECO mode
Energy-saving display mode. The display therefore goes dark after an idle time, thereby
reducing the energy consumption.

Infrared communication
Wireless communication between individual devices for data transmission using light in the
infrared waveband.

IO-Link
Point-to-point connection to conventional and intelligent sensors/actuators by unshielded
standard cables using 3-wire technology.

Open-circuit principle
The mode of operation of electrically operated functional parts, whereby the function is
guaranteed when current is flowing ("working current").

Output relay
Relay in the output (of the control circuit).

Quiescent current principle

The mode of operation of electrically operated functional parts, whereby the function is
guaranteed not by the presence of a voltage, but by the absence of current ("quiescent
current principle").

Resistance sensor
Sensor that contains a resistor for recording the measured variable.

Screw terminal
Device for the connection and/or coupling and subsequent release of one or more
conductors, the connection being established either directly or indirectly by means of any
types of screw or nut.

Screw-type connection system

Connection technology in which an electrical cable is clamped by a screw.

Glossary

Sensor expansion module

Additional module for the digitally adjustable temperature monitoring relay. This has two
additional inputs for the connection of temperature sensors of types Pt100, Pt1000,
KTY83-110, KTY84 and NTC, as well as an analog value input (4 … 20 mA) and an output
relay for sensor monitoring.

SIRIUS industrial enclosure

Enclosure with certain standardized dimensions (e.g. width of 22.5 or 45 mm) for various
devices intended for control cabinet installation.

Spring-type connection system

Screwless and vibration-resistant connection technology for single, multiple and finely
stranded electrical connecting cables in which the electrical conductors are clamped by
spring force.

Standard mounting rail

Mounting rail for snap-on installation, e.g. C-rail (35 mm), which is used preferentially for
mounting components in the control cabinet. In addition to the function as a carrier of
components, standard mounting rails are very often used as grounding bars.

Standard rail mounting

Fixing to a standard mounting rail provided for this purpose, which is designed in accordance
with DIN EN 50022.

Temperature limiter
Device function that locks the device permanently after tripping. If the sensor temperature
overshoots or undershoots the limit by the amount of the hysteresis, a reset is possible.

Temperature monitor
Device function in which the device is automatically reset on activation, as soon as the
sensor temperature has overshot or undershot the set limit by the hysteresis value.

Temperature monitoring
Control function for detecting, evaluating, and reporting temperature deviations which
trigger an intended response when a limit value is reached.

Temperature monitoring relay

Relay which, together with an evaluation unit, monitors a temperature and, if this
temperature is exceeded, switches a setpoint value.

3RS2 temperature monitoring relay

120 Equipment Manual, 10/2023, A5E42462552002A/RS-AC/003

Terminal coding
Attachment of coding pins to the individual terminals, to prevent mistakes when replacing
the terminals.

Terminal cover
Device for covering terminal strips in a control cabinet.

Thermistor connection
Connection for a PTC sensor (PTC = positive temperature coefficient).

Thermocouple
Temperature sensor, made of two different, but permanently joined materials (usually
metal), at the shared interface of which a thermoelectric voltage arises that is evaluated
to determine the temperature.

Three-step controller
Discrete controller in which the output quantity cannot assume any required setting, but only
one of three switch positions.
