Description
The part number 777318-124 identifies a specific module in the FieldPoint category, known as the FP-RTD-124. This module is designed to handle 4 Wire RTD Input and is characterized by its 16 Bit resolution, making it a precise tool for temperature and resistance measurements. However, it is important to note that this module is not recommended for new designs.
It comes equipped with 8 inputs that are compatible with both 2-wire and 4-wire RTDs, ensuring versatility in its applications. The channel configuration of the FP-RTD-124 is meticulously designed, with each channel featuring four terminals: a positive sensing input, a negative sensing input, an excitation output, and a common input. This arrangement allows for accurate and reliable measurements.
Data obtained from the module can be scaled to either resistance or temperature, providing users with flexible options for analysis. The module offers linearization for 100 Ω or 1000 Ω nominal resistance platinum RTDs and supports 6 TCR values, enhancing the accuracy of temperature readings.
The temperature ranges that can be measured with the FP-RTD-124 are extensive, covering from –200 to 850 °C, 73 to 1,123 K, or –328 to 1,562 °F, with a fine resolution of 0.016 °C. This makes the module suitable for a wide variety of applications across different industries. The update rate of 1 update/second per channel ensures timely data collection.
In terms of power efficiency, the module consumes a minimal 35 mW from a network module, highlighting its energy-efficient design. Users have the option to scale data to resistance (Ω) or various temperature units (°C, °F, °K), according to their specific requirements.
Moreover, the FP-RTD-124 boasts several user-friendly features such as the ability to be hot-swapped, auto configuration for ease of use, built-in signal conditioning for improved data quality, and 50/60 Hz noise rejection filters to minimize environmental noise interference. These features collectively enhance the module’s functionality and reliability in demanding applications.
