  • Page 2: Hazardous Location Considerations

    SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module Hazardous Location Considerations This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D or non-hazardous locations only. The following WARNING statement applies to use in hazardous locations. EXPLOSION HAZARD WARNING •...
  • Page 3: Overview

    The RTD module receives and stores digitally converted analog data from RTDs or other resistance inputs such as potentiometers into its image table for retrieval by all fixed and modular SLC 500 processors. An RTD consists of a temperature-sensing element connected by 2, 3 or 4 wires that provide input to the RTD module.

    SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module Fixed Expansion Chassis Considerations The 2-slot, SLC 500 fixed I/O expansion chassis (1746-A2) IMPORTANT supports many combinations of modules. The combinations that are not supported by the fixed expansion chassis are shown in the table below. For a complete listing of valid combinations...
  • Page 7: Module Installation And Removal

    SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module Module Installation and Removal When installing the module in a chassis, it is not necessary to remove the terminal block from the module. Module Installation Procedure 1. Align the circuit board of the RTD module with the card guides located at the top and bottom of the chassis.
  • Page 8: Terminal Block Wiring And Removal

    SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module Terminal Block Wiring and Removal The RTD module contains an 18-position, removable terminal block. The terminal pin-out is shown below. Disconnect power to the SLC before attempting to install, ATTENTION remove, or wire the removable terminal wiring block.
  • Page 9: Wiring Considerations

    SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module Terminal Block Removal If the terminal block is removed, use the write-on label located on the side of the terminal block to identify the module location and type. To remove the terminal block: 1. Loosen the two terminal block release screws.

  • Page 16: Channel Configuration

    SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module Channel Configuration Once the module is installed, each channel can be configured to establish the way the channel will operate. You configure the channel by entering bit values into the configuration word using your programming software. Channels 0 through 3 on the NR4 are configured by entering bit values into output words 0 through 3 respectively.
