DataShuttle and DynaRes 11-13-01 Introduction & Installation of the DataShuttle 1-5
DataShuttle-RTD
The DataShuttle RTD models are specifically designed for high accuracy RTD measurements. The DS-16-
8-RTD-115e version is suited for –200°C to 115°C measurements, and the DS-18-8-RTD-750C version is
suited for –200
o
C to 750 °C measurements. Both have signal conditioning set resistors pre-installed at the
factory for use with two or three wire RTDs. This model also features terminals for 8 digital I/O lines, with
room for up to 8 optically isolated modules. Two analog outputs are available on the –AO models: DS-16-
8-RTD-115C-AO and DS-16-8-RTD-750C-AO.
The DataShuttle-RTD can also measure non-RTD inputs. For channels that are required to measure other
signals, remove the pre-installed resistors at R3 and R4. See example in the Analog Auxiliary Components
section of Chapter 2 for a more detailed illustration.
