Temperature Transmitters TxBlock & TxRail

TxBlock and TxRail are fully programmable temperature transmitters dedicated to PT100 and thermocouple industrial sensors with configurable working ranges. The TxBlock is a head mount unit and provides a 4-20mA outputs, the TxRail is a DIN rail mount unit and there are options for a 4-20mA and 0-10V outputs. Both units can be easily configured by the user using the TxConfig software and USB lead. The TxRail units also accept, 0-50mV, 0-10v and 0-20mA input signals.

TxConfig USB Interface

The TxConfig USB is the configuration interface to configure the whole Smart Transmitters family with 0 to 10Vdc and 4 to 20mA outputs. By using this interface the user can either perform the transmitter configuration without an external power supply and connected to the current loop. This interface works together TxConfig software.

Specifications

  • Easy to install, no special driver needed
  • USB communication between the PC and the transmitter
  • Configures the transmitter without external power supply, powered by USB bus
  • Electrical connections made easy
  • Compatible with USB 1.1 and 2.0
  • Operating system: Windows XP and Vista

TXConfig programming software allow you to set the input type, and measurement range:
