F0-04RTD

About the F0-04RTD

The Automation Direct Facts Engineering Koyo F0-04RTD is a four channel resistive temperature detector input module. This module is compatible with DirectLogic 05 and DirectLogic 06 programmable logic controllers. Four RTD channels on the module offer 0.1 ℃/℉ temperature resolution capable of displaying in ℉, ℃, as well as magnitude plus sign or 2’s complement. The RTD module provides direct temperature readings, and does not require any extra scaling or converting.

Known for accurate and stable temperature readings, F0-04RTD bases its calculations on data provided by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The module supports a number of input ranges. These include types: Pt100, Pt1000, jPt100, CU-10/25, and NI-120. Each supports a wide range of temperatures that can be selected based on need. The module requires specific software requirements in order to function properly. When operating in a DL05 PLC, firmware version 4.70 or later and DirectSOFT32 Version 3.0c or later is required. If a DL06 controller is used, firmware version 1.50 or later and DirectSOFT32 Version 4.0, Build 16 or later is needed.

Though it can detect temperatures as high as 1562℉, ambient temperatures around the device should be closely regulated. When operating in a DL05/06 series controller, temperatures can range from 0℃ to 70℃, or 32℉ to 140℉. Should the device be placed in storage, temperatures can range as low as -20℃, or -4℉, and as high as 70℃, or 158℉. Technical support for F0-04RTD was originally provided by Automation Direct. Be sure to refer to the module’s user manual and datasheet for all wiring and installation parameters.
