Connection of Resistance Thermometers in 2-wire Configuration to the \ Analog Inputs

When resistance thermometers (Pt100, Pt1000, Ni1000) are used, a constant current must flow to build the necessary voltage drop for the evaluation. For this, the module CI592-CS31 provides a constant current source which is multiplexed over the max. 4 analog input channels.

The following figure shows the connection of resistance thermometers in 2-wire configuration to the analog input AI0. Proceed with the analog inputs AI1 to AI3 in the same way.

Connection of resistance thermometers in 2-wire configuration to the analog inputs

Pt100	-50 °C…+400 °C	2-wire configuration, 1 channel used
Pt1000	-50 °C…+400 °C	2-wire configuration, 1 channel used
Ni1000	-50 °C…+150 °C	2-wire configuration, 1 channel used

The measuring ranges are described in the section Measuring Ranges CI592-CS31 - Digital and Analog Inputs and Outputs CI592-CS31 - Digital and Analog Inputs and Outputs:

The module CI592-CS31 performs a linearization of the resistance characteristic.

Configure unused analog input channels as “unused”.
