Terminal Modules
The HP E1313/E1413 is comprised of an A/D module and a spring-clamp type
terminal module. The screwless terminals utilize a spring-clamp terminal for
connecting solid or stranded wire. Connection is made with a simple push of a
three-pronged insertion tool (HP part number 8710-2127), which is shipped
with the HP E1313/E1413. If the spring-clamp type terminal module is not
desired, a crimp-and-insert terminal module (Option A3E) and an interface to
rack mount terminal panel (Option A3F) is available for the HP E1313 and
HP E1413 (see page 56).
The terminal module provides the following:
–
Terminal connections to field wiring.
–
Strain relief for the wiring bundle.
–
Reference junction temperature sensing for thermocouple measurements.
–
Ground to Guard connections for each channel.
The SCPs and
Terminal Module
The same terminal is used for all field wiring regardless of which Signal
Conditioning Plug-on (SCP) is used. Each SCP includes a set of labels to
map that SCP’s channels to the terminal module’s terminal blocks. See Step
4 on page 21 for the HP E1313 terminal module and page 25 for the
HP E1413 terminal module.
