Temperature measuring amplifiers with ultra high channel density

February 2017 Sensors & Transducers

Turck has added the IMX12-TI temperature measuring amplifier to its IMX interface technology series. With a width of only 12,5 mm and a high channel density, the devices save valuable space in the cabinet.

There is a single-channel variant, which is able to warn the control system if the temperature set point is exceeded via an additional relay changeover contact. Also on offer is a two channel version: one for resistance thermometers or thermocouples with a 2 or 3-wire connection, or another for 4-wire resistance thermometers.

With operating temperatures up to 70°C and operating voltages of 10 to 30 VDC, the IMX12-TI offers particularly versatile use, such as in applications with an onboard power supply, emergency power supply, or other battery-fed applications. All standard thermocouples can be connected as well as resistance sensors. Like all devices of the IMX12 series, the temperature measuring amplifiers are approved for all relevant markets, meet the requirements of SIL level 2 and are suitable for use directly in Zone 2.

The optionally available power rail system simplifies device power supply by feeding the voltage via a top-hat rail connection.
