  • Page 7: Thermocouple Wiring Circuits

    Thermocouple Wiring Circuits Use thermocouple and extension wire that conforms to the appropriate thermocouple type specified on the serial number tag. In thermocouple circuits, the negative lead is colored red. Extension wires must be of sufficient size so that on long runs the thermocouple circuit resistance does not exceed 100 ohms.
  • Page 8: Operation

    The typical control system contains the sensor, controller (2000/3020) Operation and the process (load). The sensor produces a small signal propor- tional to the measured temperature of the process. This signal is amplified by the controller, where it is compared with setpoint tem- perature.

    Layout of the front panel is shown below. To reach the adjust- Front Panel Layout ments, swing the top of the door forward and down. The pro- portional band adjustment is on the right side and sets the gain of the controller. The offset (manual reset) adjustment is on the left and corrects for offsets from the setpoint tempera- ture.
