(3G), 5 to 200Hz (when operating) Impact Resistance: 196.1m/s (20G)/11msec Use the EDX-13A in an area where vibration and impact can be kept within the scope of specifications. Continuous vibration or severe impact may cause deteriorated performance and system failure.
EDX-13A. Regardless of the replacement parts, the EDX-13A itself gradually deteriorates with age. Before the expected service life is reached, consider replacing the EDX-13A with a new one or the latest series as preventive maintenance.
2 Be sure to use the shielded cable for connecting thermocouples. 3 Be sure to connect the shield wire of the thermocouple into the SHIELD terminal of the EDX-13A. 4 The total cable length of the thermocouples must be less than 30 m.
1. OUTLINE OF THE PRODUCT 1-1 OUTLINE OF THE PRODUCT The EDX-13A is a measuring unit for thermocouples. The EDX-13A has to be installed in the EDX-10A. One EDX-13A is capable of measurement of 4 channels and maximum 16 channels with 4 EDX-13A units.
After connecting the terminal block, fasten the screws (right and left) on the terminal block. ② SHIELD terminal For connecting the shield wire of the thermocouple. 2-2 TOP ③ ③Unit-coupling connector Connector for connecting the EDX-10A or measuring units on the EDX-13A.
④ ⑥ ⑦ ⑤ ④Clearance hole For fixing the EDX-10A or measuring unit on the EDX-13A by using a screw. ⑤Finger slot For connecting/disconnecting the EDX-10A and a measuring unit. ⑥Rubber foot slot The EDX-13A has small rubber feet to keep it from sliding around when placed on a flat surface.
You can connect the measuring units up to 4 units. Do not connect 5 or more measuring units. 1) To connect the EDX-10A or a measuring unit on the EDX-13A, remove the cap of the EDX-10A or a measuring unit to be connected.
4. CONNECT THERMOCOUPLES The EDX-13A is a measuring instrument for thermocouples. Connect thermocouples as follows. NOTE Before connecting thermocouples, disconnect the USB cable and AC adapter from the EDX-10A to turn OFF the power. Before starting operation, touch a grounded source to discharge the static electricity in your body.

4) Insert the terminal block into the Input Connector of the EDX-13A. 5) Fasten the screws (right and left) on the terminal block by using the screwdriver (standard accessory). 6) Connect the shield wire of the thermocouple into the SHIELD terminal of the EDX-13A. NOTE Be sure to use the thermocouples;...
5-2 INTERNAL SAMPLING FREQUENCY The internal sampling frequency of the EDX-13A is 2 Hz or 0.5 Hz. The default setting is 2 Hz. Under the environment where measured values vary widely, you can reduce the dispersion of measured values by...
Items to be checked and countermeasure against various phenomena are described in the following table. If troubles are not solved despite countermeasures, contact KYOWA or our representative. If the EDX-13A is damaged due to disassembling or remodeling by the user, KYOWA may refuse the repair. Trouble...

Potential interference Potential interference occurs when the target to be measured has a DC/AC potential. At this time, grounding the EDX-13A is not necessarily a good thing. It may be appropriate to connect the target to be measured and EDX-10A.
The EDX-13A is not designed for continuous operation of 24 hours. We do not guarantee the continuous operation of the EDX-13A and shall not be responsible for any failure of the EDX-13A to perform within the warranty period.
"error due to internal reference junction compensator", and "error due to the thermocouple". * To satisfy the accuracy of the internal reference junction compensation ±1.0˚C Condition No. 1: When connecting the EDX-13A and other measuring units (EDX-11A and EDX-12A) into one EDX-10A, be sure to mount the EDX-13A at the very bottom.
