Sensor Installation Guidelines

Thermocouple inputs: Extension wire for thermocouples must
be of the same alloy as the thermocouple to limit errors.

When using a voltage input for the digital event on Input 2, use
an ungrounded thermocouple on Input 1. If a grounded
thermocouple is required, the signal to input 2 must be isolated
to prevent possible ground loops.

RTD input: Each 1

of lead wire resistance can cause a +2°F

error when using a two-wire RTD. A three-wire RTD sensor
overcomes this problem. All three wires must have the same
electrical resistance (i.e., same gauge, same length, multi-
stranded or solid, same metal).

CAUTION:

If high voltage is applied
to a low-voltage unit,
irreversible damage will
occur.

WARNING:

To avoid damage to
property and equipment,
and/or injury of loss of
life, use National Electric
Code (NEC) standard
wiring practices to install
and operate the Series
97. Failure to do so could
result in such damage,
and/or injury or death.

ç

CAUTION:

Maintain isolation
between input 1 and
input 2 to prevent a
ground loop. A ground
loop may cause incorrect
readings, dashes across
the upper display or the
display of error codes.
Failure to follow this
guideline could result in
damage to equipment.
