MODEL CUB5TC - MINIATURE ELECTRONIC 5-DIGIT
 THERMOCOUPLE INPUTS
Thermocouple types T, E, J, K, R, S, B, N, or mV
 PROGRAMMABLE TEMPERATURE OFFSET
 SELECTABLE °F or °C WITH 1 or 0.1 DEGREE RESOLUTION
 °F OR °C DISPLAY ANNUNCIATORS

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The CUB5 provides the user the ultimate in flexibility, from its complete user
programming to the optional setpoint control and communication capability.
The CUB5TC accepts a thermocouple input and provides a temperature display
in Celcius or Farenheit. The meter also features minimum and maximum
display capture, display offset, °F or °C indicator, and programmable user input.
The display can be toggled either manually or automatically between the
selected displays.
The CUB5 display has 0.48" (12.2 mm) high digits. The LCD is available in
two versions, reflective and red/green backlight. The backlight version is user
selectable for the desired color and also has variable display intensity.
The capability of the CUB5 can be easily expanded with the addition of
option cards. Setpoint capability is field installable with the addition of the
setpoint output cards. Serial communications capability for RS232 or RS485 is
added with a serial option card.
The CUB5 can be powered from an optional Red Lion Micro-Line/Sensor
Power Supply (MLPS), which attaches directly to the back of a CUB5. The
MLPS is powered from 85 to 250 VAC and provides up to 400 mA to drive the
unit and sensors.
