Description
The 184396D-02 is part of the SCXI & Legacy category, specifically designed as a SCC-TCI model. This product is a SCC-TC02 Thermocouple Input Module, featuring screw terminals for convenient connections. Manufactured by National Instruments, it is tailored for temperature input applications within the SCC series.
This module is compatible with RTD inputs alongside other SCC Series modules, ensuring versatile use across different temperature measurement scenarios. It supports a single channel input, making it suitable for focused temperature monitoring tasks.
One of the key highlights of this module is its support for a wide range of thermocouple types, including types B, E, J, K, N, R, S, and T. This versatility ensures that the module can be used across various temperature measurement applications, offering reliable and accurate readings.
Furthermore, the module is equipped with several advanced features for enhanced performance and reliability. These include high-impedance bias resistors, open-thermocouple detection, and support for both ground-referenced and floating thermocouples. Additionally, it comes with cold-junction compensation, further improving the accuracy of temperature readings. A thermistor for cold-junction compensation is onboard, enhancing its functionality.
The module also provides a 1 mA current excitation, ensuring that it can drive a measurement signal through the thermocouple, enabling accurate and reliable temperature measurements.
Although announced as obsolete by National Instruments, this module remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that users of this module can continue to rely on its performance and functionality for their temperature measurement needs.
