Original Press Release:



J and K Type Thermocouple to Frequency Signal Conditioner



Calex Mfg. Co., Inc. of Concord, California announces the availability of the Calex Model 8511 and 8512. These signal conditioners provide a low cost solution ideal for applications where single point, isolated thermocouple signal conditioning is required. The 8511 and 8512 are designed to operate into a common 24 volt, 7mA PLC high-speed counter input. They are well suited for applications such as remote temperature monitoring.

The 8511 is designed for use with a Type J Thermocouple over a temperature range of 0°C to 500°C. The 8512 is designed for use with a Type K Thermocouple over a temperature range of 0°C to 500°C. Both signal conditioners utilize linearization and cold junction compensation. The output frequency is 100Hz at 0°C to 5100Hz at +500°C providing 12 bit resolution. The output optocoupler provides DC isolation from the input and the 24 VDC power. The 8511 and 8512 are housed in a plastic case with a built in DIN Rail mounting foot. The case dimensions are 3.78"L x 1.06"W x 1.65" H. All connections are made to easily accessible screw terminals. The 8511 and 8512 are backed by Calex's five-year warranty and are UL 508 and UL 1604 compliant.

Pricing for the 8511 and 8512 models is $100.10/ea (100). Units are available from stock to 6 weeks.
