Description
The National Instruments SCC-TCI is a specialized module designed to enhance the functionality of SCXI & Legacy systems. This module falls under the category of SCXI & Legacy and is specifically tailored for temperature input monitoring and measurement tasks. It is compatible exclusively with SCC Series modules, ensuring a seamless integration for users of this platform.
As a Temperature Input Module for SCC, the SCC-TCI is engineered to accommodate a single channel for thermocouples of types B, E, J, K, N, R, S, and T. This versatility makes it an invaluable asset for a wide range of temperature sensing applications. The module is equipped with a host of advanced features to optimize performance and reliability. These include high-impedance bias resistors and open-thermocouple detection to ensure accurate readings, support for both ground-referenced and floating thermocouples to cater to various installation needs, an onboard thermistor for cold-junction compensation to maintain precision in measurements, and 1 mA current excitation to enhance signal integrity.
While the SCC-TCI has been announced as obsolete by National Instruments, it remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that users can continue to rely on this critical component for their temperature measurement needs without disruption.
