Temperature

The temperature signal converters They are essential devices in industrial automation and control systems, as they transform temperature signals from sensors such as thermocouples or RTDs (Temperature Dependent Resistors) into standard output signals, such as 4-20 mA or 0-10 V. This conversion allows temperature measurements to be processed and monitored by control and data acquisition systems.

Main functions of temperature signal converters:

  • Signal conversion: They transform temperature signals from sensors into standard output signals, facilitating their integration into control systems.
  • Isolation: They provide electrical isolation between the temperature sensor and the control system, protecting sensitive equipment from possible overloads or interference.
  • Amplification and linearization: They adjust and linearize the output signals to ensure an accurate and proportional representation of the measured temperature.

Common applications:

  • Industrial automation: Monitoring and control of processes that require accurate temperature measurements.
  • Air conditioning systems: Temperature regulation in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) installations.
  • Quality control: Monitoring of manufacturing processes where temperature is a critical parameter.
