• Integrated Cold Junction Compensation (CJC) for accurate temperature readings.
• Supports a broad array of thermocouple types including B, C, E, J, K, N, R, S, and T.
• Designed for seamless integration into the ControlLogix backplane.
• Low power dissipation design suitable for high-density chassis configurations.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the ControlLogix chassis is powered down before inserting or removing the module to prevent electrical damage.
• Use shielded thermocouple extension wire to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) in industrial environments.
• Verify that the Removable Terminal Block (RTB) is securely seated and locked into the module housing.
• Maintain adequate spacing within the chassis to allow for proper airflow and heat dissipation.
• Follow standard ESD (electrostatic discharge) precautions when handling the module to protect internal circuitry.
