2-Wire Miniature Universal Temperature/Process Transmitters

Input and Output Connection Drawings | Specifications | How to Order

Temperature transmitters are used for a variety of reasons. The use of temperature transmitters can eliminate the need for long costly runs of thermocouple wire, vs. less expensive copper signal wire. When the environment is electrically noisy, sending a 4-20 mA signal to the control panel reduces the chance of error.
The Tempco ETM Series of 2-wire transmitters offers both isolated and non-isolated versions. They are designed to fit in a standard aluminum or iron industrial connection head.

 Design Features
  • Accepts T/C and 2- or 3-wire RTD sensors
  • Field programmable with easy to use MS Windows®-based configuration software and a PC
  • Consistent sensor break function
  • Full access to all features while in operation
  • Temperature linear output
  • NAMUR-compliant
  • Configuration, editing & reading without external power
  • Easy wiring with a large center hole

 Additional Design Features for Isolated Version:
  • Fully universal, linearized and isolated 3/4 wire RTD, T/C, mV and Ohm
  • Sensor and system error correction
  • Low sensor isolation detection
  • Simplified loop check up with calibration output
The ETM Transmitters are built using surface mount components and employ digital technology with non-volatile memory to retain the configuration  after programming and the cable is removed.
