Rack-mounted DCS Signal Conditioners 18-RACK

THERMOCOUPLE CONVERTER

Functions & Features

• Accepting direct input from a thermocouple and providing

two standard process signals

• 5-segment linearization

• Burnout protection

• High-accuracy cold junction compensation

• Second channel output available at the front terminals

and at the Standard Rack connector

Typical Applications

• High-accuracy cold junction compensation benefits narrow

span measurements

• 0.1 μA burnout sensing enables long distance

transmission with minimum offset drifts

• Electric furnace (isolation)

• No burnout type can connect to a single T/C in parallel

with a recorder
