Murrelektronik's temperature converters convert a temperature into the usual signal variables (0...10 V, 4...20 mA, 0...20 mA) in conjunction with a PT100 temperature sensor (IEC 751/ EN 60751). For this purpose, the MTW modules supply a constant current which causes a voltage drop at the PT100 resistor. This is linearized and converted into the corresponding output signals at the OUT terminals. All 3 signals can be used simultaneously. The 2-wire technique can be used for short distances between PT100 sensor and MTW module (<5 m). The 3-wire measuring method must be used for longer distances to compensate the measuring line resistance. For this purpose, a 3rd line (same length and design as the two measuring lines) is required. In this case, the factory-equipped bridge connecting E2 and E3 must be removed.
