FW Murphy TDX6 Installation And Operation Instructions

TDX6 Temperature Scanner/Pyrometer
Installation and Operation Instructions
Please read the following instructions and warnings before installation. Visually inspect the product for any damage that may have occurred
during shipping. It is your responsibility to have a qualified person install this unit and make sure it conforms to NEC and local codes.

Description

The TDX6 is an advanced design 6-point temperature
scanner and pyrometer. It continually scans six
grounded or ungrounded thermocouples, displays
tt
the temperature of the thermocouple selected and has
adjustable trip points for each input. A trip point read/
scan knob provides for display and check/adjustment of
the thermocouple temperature trip point. If any trip point
is reached, its output turns ON and can be used as a
control signal or to initiate alarms and/or shutdown.

Accuracy:
With J-type thermocouple: from 50-150° F (J0-66° C) +3° F ( +2° C),
from 150-1200° F (66-649° C) ±1.0% of reading
With K-type thermocouple: from 400-2000° F (204-1076° C) ±1.0% of
reading

Trip Point Adjustment Range: 0-1999 Degrees
Open Thermocouple Input: A number 1 appears in the display to the
right of the channel number and the trip point operates
* An isolation barrier is needed between the TDX6 and an Annunciator rated for Class I, Division I, Group D, Hazardous Areas.
When used with approved ignition. Contact FW Murphy Production Controls for details.

t When power requirements are used as stated in Specifications section.
tt Using grounded thermocouples introduces the risk of odd currents or voltages being imposed on the thermocouple signal which can affect the accuracy of the reading. This is
an inherent problem of grounded thermocouples, and the reason why we prefer unground ed thermocouples.
