Circuit for resistance measurement
The following conditions apply when measuring the resistance and temperature with the
SM 431; AI 8 x 14 Bit:
Table 5- 50 Channels for resistance and temperature measurement of the SM 431; AI 8 x 14 Bit
Measuring type parameter Permissible for
channel n
Condition
Resistance
(4-conductor connection)
0, 2, 4 or 6
Resistance
(3-conductor connection)
0, 2, 4 or 6
Thermal resistance
(linear, 4-wire connection)
0, 2, 4 or 6
Thermal resistance
(linear, 3-wire connection)
0, 2, 4 or 6
You must disable the "Measuring type" parameter for channels
n+1 (1, 3, 5, 7).
Reason: The connections of channel n+1 are used to supply the
resistance that is connected to channel n.
Circuit for reference junction compensation for thermocouples
If you select "RTD on Channel 0" as a reference junction for reference junction
compensation for thermocouples, the following applies:
Table 5- 51 Thermocouple with reference junction compensation via RTD on channel 0
Measuring type parameter Permissible for
channel n
Condition
RTD on Channel 0 2 to 7 You must connect and configure on channel 0 a resistance
thermometer with linearization, a 3 or 4-conductor connection in
climatic range. This means that channels 0 and 1 are assigned.
Reason: If channel 0 is to be used as the reference junction, a
resistance-type sensor must be connected there to record absolute
temperatures in the climatic range.
Unused channels
Unused channels can usually be left open. Set the measuring range modules to position "A".
In measuring environments with strong interference, you can improve the module's immunity
to interference by short-circuiting the channels.
For unused channels, set the "measuring method" parameter to "deactivated". This reduces
the module's cycle time.
