The Thermocouple Module monitors up to 20 channels of Type J or K thermocouples. The RTD module monitors 8 RTD inputs. The temperature information is provided to the engine control system over SAE J1939 CAN bus. Temperature information can include exhaust temperature, winding temperature, and fluid temperature monitoring. All 20 channels of temperature data are automatically sent over the CAN bus when power is applied with no additional programming or configuration required. Integral diagnostics determine thermocouple integrity and thermocouple inputs are isolated from each other. CAN communications are via an isolated CAN interface with SAE J1939 protocol. A RS-232 interface allows for quick user adjustments using Windows HyperTerminal or other similar terminal software. Settings are saved to non-volatile memory upon command. The Thermocouple module and the RTD module feature identical rugged packaging and watertight Deutsch IPD connectors. Units are UL and cUL recognized to UL508 and C22.2 No. 142-M1987. The Thermocouple Module is suitable for use in European Zone 2, Group II environments and carries a CE mark. Applications include power generator sets.
