Analog I/O Module Features
•
Application temperature, that is, the temperature of the physical location
where the thermocouple is being used.
Module Error at 25 °C (77 °F)
Table 5
lists the 1756-IRT8I module error at 25 °C (77 °F) when using a
thermocouple input type.
EXAMPLE
When a 1756-IRT8I or 1756-IT16 module is used with a thermocouple input
type in the following conditions, module error at
25 °C (77 °F) is ±3.74 °C (38.73 °F):
•
Connected to a type S thermocouple
•
Application temperature of 1200 °C (2192 °F
)
In other words, the difference between the temperature the module
reports and the actual application temperature can be ±3.74 °C (38.73 °F).
The module can report an application temperature of 1200 °C (2192 °F
)
in
this case when the actual temperature can be in the range from
1196.26…1203.74 °C (2185.268…2198.732 °F
)
.
These calculations used a typical error of 0.02% of full scale range.
