USER GUIDE

SCC-TC Series Thermocouple Input Modules
The SCC-TC Series thermocouple input modules, SCC-TC01 and
SCC-TC02, accept input signals from B-, E-, J-, K-, N-, R-, S-, and T-type
thermocouples. The thermocouple inputs are filtered and passed into a
differential amplifier with a gain of 100. The output of the amplifier passes
through a dual-pole 2 Hz filter. Each module contains thermistor circuitry,
powered by a 2.5 V reference, to compensate for cold-junction effects.
Each module also can detect open thermocouple circuits.
Alternatively, you can connect voltage signals up to ±100 mV to the screw
terminals of the SCC-TC02 and use it as a low-bandwidth millivolt-input
module.
