Assisting the automation industry since 1986 User manual METER SRT-73-XA Firmware: v.5.18 or higher • Input type: TC K/S/J/T/N/R/B/E • Two-colour display • Read the user's manual carefully before starting to use the unit or software. Producer reserves the right to implement changes without prior notice.
User manual - METER SRT-73-XA Explanation of symbols used in the manual: - This symbol denotes especially important guidelines concerning the installation and operation of the device. Not complying with the guidelines denoted by this symbol may cause an accident, damage or equipment destruction.
2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS The SRT-73-XA meter is equipped with thermocouple input (K, S, J, T, N, R, B, E). The measurement range depends on connected thermocouple type. Measurement is linearised by the polynomial characteristics referred to particular thermocouples and temperature of cold ends is compenssated automatically.
