SITRANS TSinsert measuring inserts are designed as a four-wire
system for single Pt100 if not mentioned differently. This makes
it possible to implement all of the aforementioned connection
types.
Double Pt100 measuring inserts (for 6 mm OD only) are de-
signed as a three-wire system.

Thermocouples
Circuit diagram for thermocouple
Where thermocouples are used, the use of head transmitters of-
fers particular advantages: The cold junction is already inte-
grated into the universal transmitter. There is no need for expen-
sive thermo or extension cable. This also removes a number of
possible error sources. The weak millivolt signal of the thermo-
couple is already converted into a stable and temperature-linear
DC or bus signal on site. This drastically reduces the effects of
electromagnetic factors on the measurement result.
If a head transmitter is not installed, the sensor feed line consists
either of the appropriate thermo or extension leads. The thermo
line is made from the thermo material of the relevant thermocou-
ple, while the extension lead uses a cost-effective substitute ma-
terial. The extension cable behaves similar to a thermo line at an
electrical level, within a limited temperature range of up to
200°C.
A wide spectrum of color coding is available for thermocouples
on an international level. This must be taken into account during
the electrical connecting.
