ABB TGM5 Angle Transmitter

Product Overview

The ABB TGM5 (including the TGM5-Ex explosion-proof version) is an angular position transmitter. It converts the rotational angle of a shaft into a load-independent DC current output, typically 0…20 mA or 4…20 mA. It is suited for industrial and marine use, including shaft mounting, with options for harsh and explosion-hazardous environments.

Key Technical Specifications

Advantages & Features

1. High Precision
   Low non-linearity especially for small angular ranges, accurate adjustment of zero point, suitable for precise feedback.

2. Robust & Reliable for Harsh Environments
   Wide temperature range, high humidity tolerance, durable housing, vibration and shock resistance.

3. Fast Response
   Response time less than 50 ms allows real-time feedback in control systems with fast dynamics.

4. Stable Long Term
   Low annual drift (<0.2 %/yr), minimal residual ripple, performance remains stable over long service life.

5. Flexible Installation & Integration
   Multiple wiring / coupling options, versions with or without explosion protection, multiple mounting options, adjustable zero, etc.

Applications

• Feedback on shaft rotation in heavy machinery

• Valve position measurement and control

• Marine equipment shaft angle monitoring

• Angle measurement in process instrumentation or automation systems

• Integration with PLC/DCS / feedback loops requiring analog current outputs

• Applications in industrial, marine, and hazardous area environments

Precautions & Notes for Use

1. Proper Coupling & Alignment
   Ensure the mechanical coupling between the shaft and transmitter has no play or force imbalance. Misalignment can cause wear, errors, or damage.

2. Prevent Moisture Accumulation
   Route cable entries with slope; ensure moisture does not accumulate inside housing or through cable glands.

3. Signal & Power Line Shielding / EMC
   Use shielded or appropriate wiring; avoid routing signal wires near high-voltage or noisy sources; follow manufacturer’s wiring guidelines.

4. Select Correct Output & Range
   When ordering or configuring, specify output current type (e.g. 4-20 mA), measurement range (full span), zero calibration, etc.

5. Explosion-Proof Version Safety
   For TGM5-Ex, ensure all installation complies with relevant explosion protection standards; maintain integrity of enclosure, sealing, cable glands, and wiring.

6. Routine Calibration
   Periodically verify zero and span to detect drift; calibration helps maintain accuracy over long periods.

7. Avoid Extreme Environmental Stress
   Though the device is rugged, avoid continuous operation outside specified temperature or humidity ranges; protect from corrosive atmospheres or mechanical shocks beyond ratings.
