Whatever the industry sector, temperature monitoring is a necessary consideration to ensure operations run smoothly. There are a number of ways to monitor temperature, but choosing the correct technology for the application can make a significant difference. For instance, Omniflex’s Maxiflex Telemetry and Data Acquisition system is a good choice for high density temperature monitoring applications. With its fully inter-channel isolated thermocouple and RTD input modules, and the ability to integrate into DCS, scad and alarm/trip systems, it can provide significant advantages and costs savings over PLC and hockey puck solutions.
Benefits of the Maxiflex RTD module:
• Supports Pt100 and Ni20 STD.
• High Inter-channel galvanic isolation (500 VAC).
• 4 set points per channel.
• Rate of change alarms.
• Converts RTD to degrees Celsius/Fahrenheit at a resolution of 0,1°.
Benefits of the Maxiflex T/C (thermocouple) module:
• 8 T/C channels per module.
• Supports type E, J, K, T, N, B, R, S thermocouples.
• High inter-channel galvanic isolation (500 VAC).
• 4 set points per channel.
• Rate of change alarms.
• Input range and T/C type can be configured differently for each channel.
