    Thermocouple Measurement

    You can use the PXIe-2527 and the TB-2627 to measure thermocouples. NI software can convert a thermocouple voltage to the thermocouple temperature. For example code, visit ni.com/examples, and enter PXIe-2527 in the Search field.

    When measuring thermocouples, be sure to account for error in your measurements. The total error in thermocouple measurement is the sum of the system error (determined by the thermal EMF of the PXIe-2527 and the CJC temperature of the TB-2627) and the thermocouple error (determined by the type of thermocouple used).

    Determining the System Error

    To determine the system error for the PXIe-2527 and TB-2627, first calculate the error due to thermal EMF of the PXI-2527 using the following equation:

    E E M F = ( T + 1   −   T V + 1   −   V ) ( V E M F ⁢ )

    where[7]

    • EEMF = error due to thermal EMF of the PXI-2527
    • T = temperature being measured, in degrees Celsius
    • T+1 = T + 1 °C
    • V = voltage that corresponds to T
    • V+1 = voltage that corresponds to T+1
    • VEMF = thermal EMF of the PXIe-2527[8]

    After you have determined the error due to thermal EMF, calculate the system error using the following equation.

    ES = EEMF + ECJC

    where

    • ES = system error of the PXIe-2527/TB-2627
    • EEMF = error due to thermal EMF of the PXIe-2527
    • ECJC = error due to CJC temperature sensor of the TB-2627[9]

    Example

    Measuring a K-type thermocouple at 200 °C with a CJC temperature of 25 °C, the system error of the PXI-2527/TB-2627 is calculated below.[10]

    Assuming typical thermal EMF (2.5 μV), first calculate the error due to thermal EMF using the following equation:

    E E M F = ( 201 °C   −   200 °C 8.178 mV   −   8.138 mV ) ( 0.0025 mV ⁢ ) = 0.063 °C

    To determine the system error, add the error due to thermal EMF to the error due to the CJC temperature sensor using the following equation.

    ES = 0.063 °C + 0.5 °C = 0.563 °C

    Determining the Thermocouple Error

    Independent of the PXIe-2527/TB-2627 system, thermocouple error is the greater of the following values: ±temperature range or ±percent of the measurement.

    In the example, a standard grade K-type thermocouple is used to measure 200 °C. The error for a standard grade K-type thermocouple is ±2.2 °C or ±0.75% of the measurement temperature.[11] Because ±0.75% of 200 °C (±1.5 °C) is less than ±2.2 °C, the error of a standard grade K-type thermocouple is ±2.2 °C.

    Determining the Total Error

    The total error in thermocouple measurement is the sum of the system error and the thermocouple error. Use the following equation to determine the total error in thermocouple measurement:

    ET = ES + ETh

    where

    • ET = total error in thermocouple measurement
    • ES = system error
    • ETh = thermocouple error

    To determine the total error in thermocouple measurement in the example, add the thermocouple error to the system error using the following equation:

    ET = 0.56 °C + 2.2 °C = 2.76 °C

    Assuming typical thermal EMF, the total error in thermocouple measurement at 200 °C for the PXIe-2527/TB-2627 with a K-type thermocouple is ±2.76 °C.

    • 1 Switching inductive loads (for example, motors and solenoids) can produce high voltage transients in excess of the module’s rated voltage. Without additional protection, these transients can interfere with module operation and impact relay life. For more information about transient suppression, visit ni.com/info and enter the Info Code induct.
    • 2 The minimum switch load is not recommended for 2-wire resistance measurements.
    • 3 DC path resistance typically remains low for the life of the relay. At the end of relay life, the path resistance rapidly rises above 1 Ω. Load ratings apply to relays used within the specification before the end of relay life.
    • 4 To ensure the typical thermal EMF, power down all relays and avoid pulsing high currents near the channels you are measuring. For more information about powering down latching relays, refer to the Power Down Latching Relays After Debounce property in NI-SWITCH or the Power Down Latching Relays After Settling property in NI-DAQmx.
    • 5 The relays used in the PXIe-2527 are field replaceable. Refer to the NI Switches Help for information about replacing a failed relay.
    • 6 The PXIe-2527 can recognize trigger pulse widths less than 150 ns if you disable digital filtering. Refer to the NI Switches Help for information about disabling digital filtering.
    • 7 In thermocouple reference tables, T and T+1 are known values used to calculate the slope of the thermocouple Temperature vs. Voltage graph. Refer to a thermocouple reference table to determine the values of V and V+1 that correspond to T and T+1, respectively.
    • 8 Refer to the Input section of this document to determine the thermal EMF value of the PXIe-2527. For optimal thermocouple measurement performance (VEMF = 2.5 μV), power down the latching relays of the PXIe-2527.
