RTD Excitation
Current
Two current values are user-selectable:
•
0.5 mA - Recommended for use with higher resistance ranges for both RTDs and
direct resistance inputs (1000
Ω
RTDs and 3000
Ω
resistance input). Refer to RTD
manufacturer for recommendations. Cannot use for 10
Ω
Copper RTD.
•
2.0 mA - Must use for 10
Ω
Copper RTD. Recommended to use for all other
RTD and direct resistance inputs, except 1000
Ω
RTDs and 3000
Ω
resistance
input ranges are limited. Refer to RTD manufacturer for recommendations.
