This terminal block has special features for thermocouples, such as isothermal construction with a plastic cover to reduce thermal gradients, open-thermocouple detection circuitry, and automatic ground referencing circuitry. When utilizing the\u00a0<strong>TBX-1303<\/strong>\u00a0with the\u00a0<strong>SCXI-1102<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Series<\/strong>, this terminal block delivers a high-impedance path to ground, so that systems work dependably with floating or ground-referenced thermocouples. For applications with the\u00a0<strong>SCXI-1100<\/strong>, you can configure the channels to be ground-referenced or floating in blocks of eight channels. For general purpose applications, this terminal block is equipped with 108 terminals, including CH+, CH-, and shield for every input channel.
