Thermocouple Extension Wire
A grade of wire used between the measuring
junction and the reference junction of
a thermocouple. Extension wire and
thermocouple wire have similar properties, but
extension wire is less costly.
Transmitter
A device that transmits temperature data
from either a thermocouple or RTD by way
of a two-wire loop. The loop has an external
power supply. The transmitter acts as a
variable resistor with respect to its input signal.
Transmitters are desirable when long lead or
extension wires produce unacceptable signal
degradation.
U
Undershoot
The amount by which a process variable falls
below the set point before it stabilizes.
V
Volt (V)
The unit of measure for electrical potential,
voltage or electromotive force (EMF). See also
Voltage.
Voltage (V)
The difference in electrical potential between
two points in a circuit. It is the push or pressure
behind current flow through a circuit. One volt
(V) is the difference in potential required to move
one coulomb of charge between two points in a
circuit, consuming one joule of energy. In other
words, one volt (V) is equal to one ampere of
current (I) flowing through one ohm of resistance
(R), or V = IR.
Z
Zero Cross
Action that provides output switching only at or
near the zero-voltage crossing points of the ac
sine wave.
