Introduction
Model 350 Temperature Controller
1.4.3 Measurement
Isolation
Optocouplers isolate the analog front end of the Model 350 from digital circuitry and
the instrument chassis. Optical isolation minimizes the effect of digital noise on the
measurement and breaks ground loops.
1.4.4 Configurable
Display
The Model 350 offers a bright, graphic liquid crystal display with an LED backlight
that simultaneously displays up to eight readings. You can show all four loops, all
inputs, or if you need to monitor one input, you can display just that one in greater
detail. Or you can custom configure each display location to suit your experiment.
Data from any input can be assigned to any of the locations, and your choice of tem-
perature or sensor units can be displayed. For added convenience, you can also cus-
tom label each sensor input, eliminating the guesswork in remembering or
determining the location to which a sensor input is associated.

1.4.5 Use Additional
Input Types with Option
Cards
The field installable input option cards add additional input types. The Model 3060
adds thermocouple capability. The Model 3061 adds capacitance sensor inputs. The
Model 3062 adds 4 Cernox™/platinum/diode input channels. While the option cards
can be easily removed, it is not necessary as the standard inputs remain functional
when the options are not being used.
1.5 Sensor
Selection
Cernox™ thin-film RTDs offer high sensitivity and low magnetic field-induced errors
over the 0.1 K to 420 K temperature range. Cernox™ sensors require calibration.
Platinum RTDs offer high uniform sensitivity from 30 K to over 800 K. With excellent
reproducibility, they are useful as thermometry standards. They follow a standard
curveabove 70 K and are interchangeable in many applications.
Silicon diodes are the best choice for general cryogenic use from 1.4 K to above room
temperature. Silicon diodes are economical to use because they follow a standard
curve and are interchangeable in many applications. They are not suitable for use in
ionizing radiation or magnetic fields.
Capacitance sensors are ideally suited for use in strong magnetic fields because they
exhibit virtually no magnetic field dependence. They can be used from 1.4 K to 290 K.
