2 Features and Functions

Features

The U2802A Thermocouple Input conditioning device is complete with the following features:

Up to 31 differential input mode, or 31- single ended inputs in voltage input mode. Each of the 31 channels can be configured as either thermocouple or voltage input mode independently.

×97.673 gain setting for thermocouple input mode.

Built- in thermistor for cold junction compensation (CJC).

Built- in zeroing function to compensate for overall system offset errors due to temperature drift.

On- board EEPROM that allows user to restore back original factory calibration data.

Open thermocouple detection that allows user to check for any loose or broken thermocouple connection before starting the data acquisition process.

Supports thermocouple type J, K, R, S, T, N, E, and B.
