YOKOGAWA ATR8S-00 Pressure Clamp Terminal Block
The Yokogawa ATR8S-00 is a pressure clamp terminal block specifically designed for Yokogawa's CENTUM VP Distributed Control System (DCS).Key features and purpose:Function: It securely connects field devices with Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) to the Input/Output (I/O) modules (FIO) within the CENTUM VP DCS system. RTDs are sensors that measure temperature by the change in electrical resistance of a material.Pressure Clamp Technology: This design ensures a reliable and vibration-proof connection between the RTD wires and the terminal block. This is crucial in industrial environments where vibrations could compromise loose connections.Compatibility: The ATR8S-00 is specifically made for the CENTUM VP system and might not be compatible with other Yokogawa DCS or PLC systems.Benefits: By using the ATR8S-00, you get a secure and reliable connection for your RTD temperature measurements within the Yokogawa CENTUM VP DCS, promoting accurate and consistent data acquisition.
