The NFAR181-S50 module serves as a specialized input interface for 12-channel Pt100 RTD sensing. It delivers a measurement range of -200 deg C to 800 deg C with a resolution of 1 second per update cycle. Each channel is galvanically isolated to 1500 V AC to prevent ground loop noise and transient voltage propagation into the system backplane. The module employs a 1 mA measurement current to excite the RTD elements, ensuring minimal self-heating errors while maintaining a temperature drift specification of 30 ppm/deg C. Additionally, the unit features configurable burn-out detection, which triggers a status alert within 60 seconds if a sensor open-circuit condition is identified.
Q: Can this module accommodate 2-wire RTD configurations?
A: The module is designed specifically for 3-wire Pt100 RTD configurations. Using 2-wire sensors will result in significant measurement inaccuracies due to lead-wire resistance, which cannot be compensated for by the hardware.
Q: Is the update rate of 1 second fixed or adjustable?
A: The data refresh cycle is fixed at 1 second per channel. This timing is optimized for stability in process-level temperature monitoring and cannot be reduced for high-speed dynamic applications.
Q: What is the procedure for clearing a burn-out detection status?
A: Once a sensor fault is detected, the status remains latched in the controller registers. Repair the physical sensor connection, and then perform a reset via the engineering station to clear the diagnostic fault flag.
