The 599 RTD Temperature Sensor Converter is a device which allows an RTD, or resistance temperature detector, to be used as a temperature sensor with the ILX Lightwave LDT-5910B, LDT-5525 Temperature Controllers, ILX Lightwave Laser Diode Controllers (LDC-3700 Series), and the LPA-9000 Series Laser Parameter Analyzers.
Lightwave Laser Diode Controllers (LDC-3700 Series) and the LPA-9000 Series Laser Parameter Analyzers. 2. Sensor resistance setting is internally switch selectable. 3. Specification of ILX Lightwave LDT-5910B Temperature Controller used with the 599 RTD Temperature Sensor Converter and a 100 ohm platinum RTD temperature sensor.
(Switch positions are labeled on the printed circuit board.) Reassemble the 599 enclosure. Note: Opening the 599 enclosure will NOT void the ILX Lightwave Warranty. However, the user should not adjust any internal trimpots, as the 599 has been factory calibrated.
This effect is usually quite small and can be minimized by property selecting the type of wire used to connect the RTD leads to the 599 Temperature Converter. In addition, these effects may be offset by properly adjusting the calibration constant TSC-599...
= V * C2 Replace C1 with C1new by selecting the C1 parameter of the Temperature Controller and entering the new value, C1new. Similarly, replace C2 with C2new. It is not necessary to repeat the calibration procedure at this point. 06_03 TSC-599...
