The WK109TC0 signal converter converts signals from a thermocouple temperature sensor into a V or mA standard signal. The output signal is linearly proportional to the input. The device is fully set via DIP switches and is immediately ready for operation. The WK109TC0 is simply snapped onto a DIN rail for installation.
