4.Features
Compatible with various types of thermocouple inputs
This product is compatible with a wide range of thermocouple input types such as J(IEC60584-1), K(IEC60584-1), E(IEC60584-1),
N(IEC60584-1), R(IEC60584-1), S(IEC60584-1), and T(IEC60584-1).
Cold junction compensation function within
As cold junction compensation is integrated in the product, there is no need to install a temperature sensor for cold junction
compensation externally, and temperature can be measured simply by connecting a thermocouple.
LED indicator for status check
The error status of thermocouple such as disconnected, not-connected, or sensor circuit trouble can be checked with the LED indicator.
Easy installation and removal
This product can be installed in and removed from the CPU unit without any tools.
Adaptable to a wide range of temperature between -20
and +60°C
The product is capable of operating in the temperature between -20 and + 60°C. It can be installed in the various environments.
No electrolytic capacitor
Without an electrolytic capacitor, which has a limited life, we are creating the product with a longer life.
