Lab Session No. 8


Objective:
To plot the characteristic curve of a J-type thermocouple and RTD pt100 with the relative
signal conditioners.

Equipment:
➢ Temperature Transducer & Signal Conditioner Trainer
➢ Connecting Wires
➢ Power Supply Unit
➢ Digital Multimeter (DMM)

Temperature transducer and heating unit

The board mod. G34/EV consists of 10 functional blocks, each of which develops a separate
function. Each block is limited by a dotted line including the electrical diagram of the same

block which outputs and inputs are accessible to measurements, with an oscilloscope or
multimeter. The signal conditioners are 3, one for each transducer used. The temperature
transducers are located on the external unit mod. TY34/EV and are:
• Industrial semiconductor transducer (PTC);
• Thermoresistance NTC;
• Industrial RTD Pt-100;
• Thermocouple type J

Procedure RTD and Thermocouple:


➢ Connect module G34 to all necessary logic supplies (+12, GND,-12)
➢ Connect SET POINT output (terminal 2) to the input of POWER AMPLIFIER block
(terminal 11)
➢ Connect the HEATER and COOLER outputs of the POWER AMPLIFIER to the
corresponding inputs on the TY34/EV.
➢ Connect 7-Segment jack to SET-POINT jack 2
➢ Adjust SET-POINT potentiometer to the reference temperature (90 C)
➢ Connect the power supply (24VAC)
➢ Note the temperature reading from RTD and Thermocouple conditioners at terminals 35
and 40 respectively
➢ Complete the Table.
➢ Turn OFF heating at 60˚C and turn ON cooling fan and note the readings in the Table.
➢ Caution: When the temperature exceeds 120 C, switch off the Unit immediately
