Data Sheet  |   Configure System popup

The National Instruments cFP-TC-120 is an 8-channel input module for direct measurement of temperature from standard J, K, T, N, R, S, E, and B thermocouple types. With signal conditioning, double-insulated isolation, input noise filtering, and a high-accuracy delta-sigma 16-bit analog-to-digital converter, the NI cFP-TC-120 delivers reliable, accurate temperature or millivolt measurements. Designed from top to bottom for productivity and reliability, the cFP-TC-120 features HotPnP (plug-and-play) operation, easy configuration, self-diagnostics, and automatic scaling to engineering units. An onboard microcontroller compensates and linearizes thermocouple readings to the NIST-90 standard, using an advanced linearization routine for maximum accuracy. The cFP-TC-120 module comes with a NIST-traceable calibration certificate ensuring accurate, reliable measurements.
