Four channels for resistance temperature sensors
The UE20-4RTD measures four RTD inputs using two-, three- or four-wire sensor connections. It provides 16-bit resolution, temperature values in 0.1°C increments and eight bytes of process data. Magnetic isolation separates the internal bus from field inputs; channels are not isolated from each other.
Sensor selection and measuring limits
| Sensor type | Configured temperature range |
|---|
| PT100 | -200°C to +800°C |
|---|
| PT200 | -200°C to +630°C |
|---|
| PT500 | -200°C to +630°C |
|---|
| PT1000 | -50°C to +300°C |
|---|
| Ni120 | -79°C to +309°C |
|---|
The module has an overall measuring envelope of -200°C to +850°C. Use the configured sensor ranges above for temperature selection; the overall envelope does not extend a sensor type beyond its configured limit.
