Introduction

1-channel analog input, temperature, RTD (Pt100), 16 bit

Introduction 1:
EL3201

The analog input terminal EL3201 allows the direct connection of one resistance sensor.

The measured resistance value can either be output directly in ohm or transformed into a temperature. If the temperature at the measuring point is of interest, the conversion from resistance to temperature can be done in the terminal according to different sensor characteristics (Pt100, Pt1000, Ni120, Ni1000, KTY types and others).

The EL3201 can operate sensors in 3- and 4-wire technology, for 2-wire connection an external bridge is necessary.

The EtherCAT Terminals indicate their measuring capability via LEDs and status bits in the EtherCAT process image.
