11.2.1 Voltage Measurement with Isolated/Non-Isolated Thermocouples
Module 464-8MA11/8MA21 is recommended for voltage measurement with thermocouples. With
floating sensors (e. g., isolated thermocouples), the permissible potential difference V
terminals of the inputs and the potential of the standard mounting rail must not be exceeded. To
avoid this, the negative potential of the sensor must be connected to the central ground point (see
Figure 11-1). Jumper terminals 1 and 2 together if you do not use compensation boxes.

With non-floating sensors (e. g., non-isolated thermocouples), the permissible potential difference
V
must not be exceeded (see maximum values of the individual modules).
