Overview
The Ametek SC-1326W is an isolated thermocouple (TC) transmitter manufactured by Rochester Instrument Systems, a division of Ametek. This precision instrument converts thermocouple millivolt signals into isolated analog output suitable for industrial process control, data acquisition, and temperature monitoring applications. The isolation barrier protects downstream control systems from ground loops and interference common in harsh manufacturing environments.
Key Features
- Isolated input design—eliminates ground loop noise and signal degradation
- Thermocouple input compatibility—accepts standard TC types across wide temperature ranges
- Industrial-grade construction—built for plant floor reliability and durability
- Compact form factor—mounts easily in control panels and enclosures
- Analog output—direct integration with PLCs, data loggers, and analog-input modules
