9. Electrical connections

9.3.2 Resistance thermometer (RTD) and resistance sensor

It is possible to connect an RTD resistance thermometer (e.g. per

EN 60751) or any resistance sensor in a 2-, 3- or 4-wire connection

method and to connect two identical resistance thermometers, having

the same measuring ranges, in a two-wire circuit. Configure the input

of the transmitter to match with the actual method of connection used.

Otherwise you will not fully exploit the possibilities of connection lead

compensation and, as a result, possibly cause additional measuring

errors (see chapter 6.3 “Configuration”).

9.3.3 Thermocouples (TC)

It is possible to connect one or two identical thermocouples. Make

sure that the thermocouple is connected with the correct polarity. If

the lead between the thermocouple and the transmitter needs to be

extended, only use thermal or compensation cable appropriate for the

connected thermocouple type.

Configure the input of the transmitter appropriately for the

thermocouple type and the cold junction compensation actually

used, otherwise measurement errors may be caused (see chapter

6.3 “Configuration”).
