AS-TT Temperature Transmitter

FCI provides temperature transmitters mounted in thermowells with integral or remote solid state electronics housed in protective hermetically or environmentally sealed enclosures for direct installation into piping and ducting on commercial and military aircraft, spacecraft, vehicles and marine applications. These transmitters utilize highly reliable Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) elements that provide a linear change in resistance that is directly proportional to temperature changes in the liquid or gas process. The FCI provided electronics are designed to provide up to three separate analog, digital or switch outputs that are calibrated by FCI over customer specified ranges to indicate temperature changes in the customer’s process fluid. The outputs are typically specified as 0 – 5 Vdc, 4 – 20 milliamps or a digital buss that interfaces with customer systems. FCI can provide Built in Test (BIT) or other type of health monitoring options on the output. FCI can also provide thermistor and thermocouple elements with transmitter electronics for requirements specified by the customer.
