SITRANS TS500

SITRANS TS500 temperature sensors feature a modular design, flexible outputs, a wide measurement range, and explosion protection for reliable industrial monitoring.

Rugged field-mounted temperature transmitters for reliable, accurate measurement, high availability, and plant safety, helping to prevent downtime in SIL 2/3 applications.

Head-mounted temperature transmitters for reliable measurement, easy integration, and advanced diagnostics, from standard to high-availability applications.

Rail-mounted temperature transmitters for accurate measurement, easy panel integration, and smart diagnostics—from standard loops to high-availability applications.

With a wide range of standard components, this sensor easily adapts to your specific needs. It seamlessly integrates into existing systems using various process connections, thermowell designs, and connection heads. Comprehensive global approvals, including marine and explosion-proof certifications, help ensure safe and reliable operation across a wide range of industrial sectors worldwide.

Choose from a wide selection of connection heads, sensors (Pt100, Type K, J, N), and wetted materials such as 316L. This modular design ensures you get the exact configuration needed for your specific process conditions.

Operate with confidence in hazardous locations. Backed by global certifications, including intrinsically safe and flameproof approvals (ATEX, IECEx, cCSAus), this sensor meets the highest international safety standards.

Robust thermowells and rugged housings protect the sensor, ensuring long-term stability. The measuring insert can be replaced during operation, allowing for maintenance without interrupting your process.

General purpose (CSA); for use in hazardous locations: ATEX, IECEx, cCSAus, NEPSI/CCC, EAC; for use in marine applications DNV and EURO; for use in safety applications and electrical equipment for furnaces and ancillary equipment (EN 50156-2) with SIL 2/3 certification

Equip your sensor with optional SITRANS TH transmitters and local indicators for easy on-site monitoring and seamless communication with control systems in both safe and hazardous environments.

Simplify installation with a wide variety of standard process connections (G1/2″, NPT 1/2″, M20x1.5), multiple thermowell sizes (2–9 mm, 2–12 mm, 2G), and customizable installation lengths.

Achieve precise process control with accuracy classes tailored to your needs. Factory calibration and comprehensive material certificates ensure reliable, traceable performance.

SIL 2/3 certification and a wide range of Ex approvals make the sensor suitable for safety-critical applications and extreme environments, helping to improve plant safety.

Supports remote configuration, maintenance, and SIL validation from the control room, reducing exposure to hazardous areas. Access to status, diagnostic, and measurement data simplifies operation and minimizes costly field visits.

Chemical recycling addresses the challenges posed by plastic waste: Engineers from Eurex Oil and Chemosvit Strojchem in Slovakia partnered with Siemens to develop a best-in-class recycling process that is both environmentally friendly and efficient.

Yes. Thanks to the SITRANS TS500’s modular design and the use of a robust thermowell, the internal measuring insert (SITRANS TSinsert) can be easily replaced, serviced, or calibrated during operation. There is no need to shut down the process or drain the system, which significantly minimizes downtime.

The SITRANS TS500 is highly adaptable to your monitoring needs. It can be equipped with optional built-in SITRANS TH head-mounted transmitters to seamlessly communicate with your control system. Additionally, you can choose from various connection heads (aluminum, stainless steel, or plastic) that include optional local displays, allowing for convenient, at-a-glance temperature monitoring directly in the field.

The Siemens Product Configurator allows you to easily select your temperature sensor and thermowell together. The system configurator checks in the background to ensure that your selections are compatible with each other. Finally, you can order both products together, and both are linked by a unique system ID via our option code Y92.

Siemens provides an easy-to-use Thermowell Stress Calculator to calculate the stress on your selected thermowell under actual process conditions and identify the risk of the thermowell tearing off.
