FP0 Thermocouple Input Expansion Units
Enable high precision temperature control at low cost
The FP0-TC4 and FP0-TC8 thermocouple units are suitable for user
friendly temperature acquisition using standard thermocouples with
high precision.
Up to three units can be added to each control unit, enabling
temperature control of up to 24 channels.
The temperature data obtained using the thermocouple is converted to
the digital value to be read into the FP0 control unit.
Standard types of thermocouples can be used: K, J, T and R
3 temperature measurement ranges are available:
-100°C to +500°C (Thermocouple types: K and J)
-100°C to +400°C (Thermocouple type : T)
- 0°C to +1500°C (Thermocouple type : R)
The temperature data measured using the sensor is converted to
degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit inside the Thermocouple Unit.
The converted data (°C or °F) is averaged, so that even unstable input
signals can be properly read.
Broken thermocouples can be detected.
