The 1738-ACNR is a Compact I/O Thermocouple/RTD Input Module that provides analog input channels for temperature measurement.
Here are some key features of the Allen Bradley 1738-ACNR module:
Supports up to 8 thermocouple or RTD input channels.
Compatible with a wide range of thermocouple and RTD types, including J, K, T, E, R, S, B, N, C, and RTD Pt100, Pt500, Pt1000.
Each channel can be individually configured for thermocouple or RTD operation.
Provides highly accurate temperature measurements with a resolution of up to 0.5 degrees Celsius.
Offers cold junction compensation for thermocouple inputs.
Supports multiple temperature ranges, selectable per channel.
Provides automatic detection of open or shorted thermocouple and RTD sensor conditions.
Offers channel-to-channel isolation for enhanced noise immunity and signal integrity.
Supports network communication via EtherNet/IP, allowing integration into larger control systems.
The 1738-ACNR module is typically used in industrial automation and control applications where precise temperature measurements are required. It is commonly found in process industries such as manufacturing, food and beverage, oil and gas, and others.
