6 Keysight U2802A 31-Channel Thermocouple Input User’s Guide
Introduction to Keysight U2802A 31-Channel Thermocouple Input
The Keysight U2802A 31- channel thermocouple input is a thermocouple
input device that functions to convert low input voltage signal
(< ±100 mV) from a thermocouple into an output voltage range suitable for
data acquisition (DAQ) device 10 V).
The Keysight U2802A thermocouple signal conditioner is to be used in
conjunction with the U2355A or U2356A model DAQ to enable
temperature measurements using thermocouples.
It works as a standalone device attached to a single DAQ. The U2802A
thermocouple device is connected to the modular DAQ via SCSI cables.
Keysight U2802A accepts eight standard thermocouple types defined in the
NIST ITS- 90 Thermocouple Database, which are Type B, E, J, K, N, R, S
and T.
It is ideal for a broad variety of temperature and voltage measurement
applications in education, industrial and scientific environments. The
U2802A comes with an on- board EEPROM features. Hence, it allows user
to store calibration data in volatile memory. Therefore, the U2802A is
robust, cost- effective, and user friendly device.
