Bently Nevada ORBIT 60 SERIES Temperature Module

Description

TC/RTD Temperature Module

The primary purpose of temperature modules is to interface

to the temperature transducers and convert the signal into a

digital representation. These modules condition and digitize

the inputs  at a rate that completely encompasses the signal

content and allows for removal of typical noise sources.

The Orbit 60 Series TC/RTD Temperature Input Modules

provide six channels of either Thermocouple (TC) or Resistive

Temperature Detector (RTD) temperature input sensors.

Each channel of the Orbit 60 Series TC/RTD input module is

individually configurable for sensor type and range using

Orbit Studio configuration software.

The RTD/TC inputs reference the internal system ground, and

for this reason, should only connect to transducers isolated at

the sensing end.

These modules occupy a single slot. The module OK LEDs

indicate proper functioning and the LINK LEDs indicate good

system communication. Six Channel Status LEDs on the utility

side of the module indicate a connected sensor in OK condition.

Sensor Types

TC sensors - The thermocouple configured channels provide

cold junction compensation for any J, K, E, or T Type

Thermocouple.

RTD sensors - The RTD configured channels can be

connected to the following:

• 3-Wire 100 Ohm Platinum 0.00392 RTD

• 3-Wire 100 Ohm Platinum 0.00385 RTD

• 3-Wire 10 Ohm Copper RTD

• 3-Wire 120 Ohm Nickel RTD
