Description
TC/RTD Temperature Module
The primary purpose of temperature modules is to interface
to the temperature transducers and convert the signal into a
digital representation. These modules condition and digitize
the inputs at a rate that completely encompasses the signal
content and allows for removal of typical noise sources.
The Orbit 60 Series TC/RTD Temperature Input Modules
provide six channels of either Thermocouple (TC) or Resistive
Temperature Detector (RTD) temperature input sensors.
Each channel of the Orbit 60 Series TC/RTD input module isindividually configurable for sensor type and range using
Orbit Studio configuration software.
The RTD/TC inputs reference the internal system ground, andfor this reason, should only connect to transducers isolated at
the sensing end.
These modules occupy a single slot. The module OK LEDs
indicate proper functioning and the LINK LEDs indicate goodsystem communication. Six Channel Status LEDs on the utility
side of the module indicate a connected sensor in OKcondition.

Sensor Types
TC sensors - The thermocouple configured channels provide
cold junction compensation for any J, K, E, or T Type
Thermocouple.
RTD sensors - The RTD configured channels can beconnected to the following:

CAUTIONLOCATION TEMPERATURE
AND HUMIDITY
While the system has beentested and capable of achieving
the design life when operating inenvironments up to 70°C,
whenever operating any
electronics system in elevatedhumidity or temperatures
exceeding 40°C, adding
environmental controls
maximizes the operational life ofthe system.
