Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Voltages If hazardous voltages are connected to the module, take the following precautions. A hazardous voltage is a voltage greater than 42.4 V or pk 60 VDC to earth ground. Caution Ensure that hazardous voltage wiring is performed only by qualified personnel adhering to local electrical standards. Caution Do not mix hazardous voltage circuits and human-accessible circuits on the same module. Caution Make sure that devices and circuits connected to the module

Wiring the USB-9211/9211A The USB-9211/9211A has a 10-terminal, detachable high voltage screw terminal enclosure that provides connections for four thermocouple input channels. Each channel has a terminal to which you can connect the positive lead of the thermocouple, TC+, and a terminal to which you can connect the negative lead of the thermocouple, TC–. The USB-9211/9211A also has a common terminal, COM, that is internally connected to the isolated ground reference of the module. Caution

Each channel has an impedance between the TC+ and COM terminals and between the TC– and COM terminals. Each channel is filtered and then sampled by a 24-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC). There is a current source between the TC+ and TC– terminals. If an open thermocouple is connected to the

Minimizing Thermal Gradients Thermocouple wire can be a significant source of thermal gradients if it conducts heat or cold directly to terminal junctions. To minimize these errors, follow these guidelines:  Use small-gauge thermocouple wire. Smaller wire transfers less heat to or from the measuring junction.  Run thermocouple wiring together near the screw-terminal connector to keep the wires at the same temperature.  Avoid running thermocouple wires near hot or cold objects.  If you co
