T280 2-Wire Transmitter

Isolated Universal 2-Wire Transmitter for Pt-100 RTD Thermocouple, & mV – T280


Product Description

T280 2-Wire Transmitter

The T280 2-Wire Transmitter is an isolated, 2-wire temperature and mV input transmitter designed to fit in a standard industrial thermal-head. The T280 supports Pt-100 RTD and thermocouple inputs as well as voltages up to 100mV. Thermocouples supported include B, E, J, K, L, N, R, S and T. If thermalhead mounting is not required, the T280 can either be mounted directly on a bulkhead or to a DIN rail using the included DIN rail clip.

Three different series make up the T280 family. The –1xxx units are for Pt-100 RTD inputs. The default configuration from the factory is 3-wire, but the units can be easily reconfigured for 2-wire, as explained in the installation instructions. The –2xxx units are for thermocouple inputs and the –3xxx units are for millivolt inputs.
