TMT121
Function and system design
Measuring principle Electronic recording and conversion of various input signals in industrial temperature measurement.
Measuring system The iTEMP® TMT 121 DIN rail temperature transmitter is a 2-wire transmitter with an analog output.
It has measurement input for resistance thermometers (RTD) and resistance transmitters in 2-, 3- or
4-wire connection, thermocouples and voltage transmitters. The TMT 121 is set up using a
configuration kit (see accessories, → ä 8) and the free of charge setup software ReadWin® 2000.
Input
Measured variable Temperature (temperature-linear transmission behavior), resistance and voltage.
Measuring range Dependent on the sensor connection and input signal the transmitter evaluates a number of
different measurement ranges, see ’type of input’.
