December 2006
Temperature Measurement
The TxBlock and TxRail supplied by Mimic Components are fully programmable head/DIN rail mount temperature transmitters for Pt100 and thermocouple sensors. Isolated versions are also available.
Main features of the product are:
* Programmable input: Pt100, RTD and thermocouples type J, K, T, E, N, R, S and B.
* Two-wire loop powered 4-20 mA output. (0-10 V versions also available).
* Power Supply: 10-30 V d.c.
* Linearised output and cold junction compensation for thermocouples.
* Two or three wire Pt100 with linearisation.
* TxIsoBlock/Rail isolation: 1000 V a.c.
* Programmable working range.
* Windows configurator or Palm (optional).
* Accuracy: ±0,2% full scale for Pt100 and 0,3% max. of FS for thermocouples.
* Temperature effect: 0,0003% SPAN/°C.
Working temperature: -40 to +85°C.
* Programmable burnout upscale or downscale sensor failure protection.
