    DATA SHEET

Models JH4001 and JH4001I provide a DC output proportional to temperature as measured by a resistance thermometer (RTD). Both are fixed-range devices, precisely calibrated to your specified ranges at the factory. 

Three-wire input circuitry compensates for lead wire resistance. ( A 4-wire input option is available.) When ordered for use with platinum RTDs, linearization is included. All other types are not linearized: output is proportional to the input resistance. Contact the factory for nonstandard requirements or for use with resistance inputs other than RTDs.

Red-green Quick-Check LEDs give a quick indication of the relative output. Red is brighter at the low end, green at high, while at mid-scale both are approximately equal. Red-only indicates offscale low while green-only indicates offscale high.

Available options include input/output isolation (Model JH4001I), AC or DC power choices and reverse-action Option RT (decreasing output with increasing input).

ORDERING INFORMATION

Model Number:  

Select JH4001 (nonisolated) or JH4001I (input-output isolated). Add suffix –AC for AC power or –DC for DC power.

RTD:  

Specify any standard RTD type between 10 and 2,000 ohms, or provide details for nonstandard RTD or resistance input.

Input Range:  

Specify any range allowed by the "Input Capabilities" spec, below.

Output Range:  

Specify any DC voltage or current range allowed by the "Output Capabilities" spec, below.

4-Wire RTD:

Specify Option 4-Wire

Power:  

Specify 115Vac, 230Vac, 12Vdc or 24Vdc.

Reverse-Acting Transmitter  (decreasing output with increasing input):

Specify Option RT.

Loop-Powered Output:  

4/20mA "current sink" output stage for connection to devices whose inputs provide 24Vdc loop excitation. Specify Option LPO.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS

These transmitters plug into any standard 8-pin circular ("octal") relay socket. JH Technology offers two sockets: DS008 for DIN-rail or surface mounting and ST008 for Snap-Track mounting (see the Accessories page). Pin connections are:

Pin 1: Power (AC or, if DC power option, DC plus).
Pin 2: No connection. (If 4-wire, same end of RTD as Pin 6)
Pin 3: Power (AC or, if DC power option, DC minus).
Pin 4: RTD.
Pin 5: RTD compensation (same end of RTD as Pin 4).
Pin 6: RTD (opposite end from Pin 4).
Pin 7: Output plus.
Pin 8: Output minus.
