DBK100/D DBK100/T DBK101
DBK100/D is terminated in a Deutsch connector, enabling watertight connections to a mating connector with up to 14
thermocouples. Custom pin-configurations are available to match with existing mating connectors. Inside the Deutsch
connector [tethered to the DBK100/D] is the cold junction sensor, which is measured by the system and used to calculate
the TC reading.
DBK100/T accepts 14 industry standard mini-TC connectors.
DBK101 You can connect one or two DBK101 hubs to a DaqBook/2000 series A/D module. A total system channel
capacity of 896 channels per DaqBook/2000 system is possible when two DBK100 hubs are used.
