Description
This block allows conversion to and from °C. A selection of curves for various junction types are available.
The following modes curves are available:
Junction Type | Comments/Description | ANSI Color Code |
---|---|---|
E Type | 0°C to +800°C Continuous | |
J Type | 0°C to +750°C Continuous | |
K Type | 0°C to +1100°C Continuous | |
N Type | −270°C to +1300°C Continuous | |
R Type | 0°C to +1600°C Continuous | N/A |
S Type | 0°C to +1600°C Continuous | N/A |
T Type | −185°C to +300°C Continuous |
Block Parameters
Parameter Field | Values | Comments/Description |
---|---|---|
Name | Alpha-numeric text | This parameter is a unique identifier which is used as a prefix for the probes and calibration tables created by the subsystem. |
Conversion | Drop-down list | 'Thermocouple' mode converts mV to °C, and 'Cold Junction' mode converts °C to mV. |
Thermocouple Type | Drop-down list | Selection of junction types supported by this conversion. Causes the lookup table data specific for the selected thermocouple type to be loaded into the underlying table lookup blocks. |
Lookup Data Type | Drop-down list | Selects the underlying data type for the table interpolation. |
Instrumentation Group | Alpha-numeric text, single-quote enclosed | Determines Folder name and hierarchy. Use "|" character between folder names to delineate subgroup structure. |
