1.1.1 Introduction
The Model 9046 Intelligent Temperature Scanner is a 16 channel modular scanning system
designed to operate in harsh environments, such as turbine engine test cells. It uses an
Ethernet TCP/IP or UDP interface and has the same mechanical footprint, power and interface
connector, and front panel LED indicators as the Model 9116 Intelligent Pressure Scanner. The
instruction set is compatible with other NetScanner™ System products.
The module is designed to remotely report temperatures from a variety of sensors. These
include thermocouples, Resistance Temperature Detectors, and thermistors. It is also capable
of returning resistance values and DC voltages.
Once configured, the Model 9046 will return Engineering Unit temperature readings in degrees
Fahrenheit, or degrees Centigrade. It incorporates an adjustable (by channel) running average
filter for use with calibrators that have electrically noisy outputs or other signal sources with
noisy outputs.
Two input styles are available; direct wired side entry units or top entry miniature thermocouple
connector style. Both styles are splash-resistant upon proper installation. The side entry version
is CE rated. Power and Ethernet connections are made via one circular connector.
