ACI Transmitter Copper Averaging

Features

  • Two-wire, 4 to 20 mA loop-powered output signal with an optional 3-Wire voltage output signal available.
  • Designed to be installed in medium to large ducts or air handling units where moisture, UV Light Air Treatment equipment, critical temperature control, higher corrosion resistance, and faster response times when compared to similar Aluminum sensing elements.
  • Copper has also been proven to provide an anti-bacterial effect on molds, fungus, and other bacteria typically found in ducts.
  • All transmitters include Zero and Span adjustments for field calibration and are calibrated using NIST Certified Calibration equipment.
  • All units are hermetically sealed using our epoxy material to eliminate the effects of moisture on the sensors.
  • All Copper Averaging transmitters include a foam pad to properly seal the duct and limit vibration once installed.
  • Optional NEMA/IP-rated weatherproof enclosures are available as specified on the back of the product datasheet.

Automation Components, Inc. (ACI) creates, manufactures, and distributes building automation sensors for the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) Industry. Dpstar is ACI Authorised Distributor in Malaysia. Our product lines include Temperature Sensors, Relative Humidity Sensors, Current Sensors, Pressure Sensors, Gas Sensors, and Wireless Sensors.

The ACI Transmitter Copper Averaging Series features a two-wire, 4 to 20 mA loop-powered output signal with an optional 3-Wire voltage output signal available. The Copper Averaging sensors are designed to be installed in medium to large ducts or air handling units where moisture, UV Light Air Treatment equipment, critical temperature control, higher corrosion resistance, and faster response times when compared to similar Aluminum sensing elements. Copper has also been proven to provide an anti-bacterial effect on molds, fungus, and other bacteria typically found in ducts. All transmitters include Zero and Span adjustments for field calibration and are calibrated using NIST Certified Calibration equipment. ACI recommends the use of an 18 to 22 AWG shielded cable for all temperature transmitter installations to reduce the possibility of noise being introduced onto the signal lines. The 1K Ohm Rigid Averaging sensor assemblies include a continuous sensing element that covers the entire length of the 8 to 100-foot sensing elements and are manufactured using Etched Teflon lead wires to differentiate between the different sensor types. All units are hermetically sealed using our epoxy material to eliminate the effects of moisture on the sensors. All Copper Averaging transmitters include a foam pad to properly seal the duct and limit vibration once installed. Optional NEMA/IP-rated weatherproof enclosures are available as specified on the back of the product datasheet. For best accuracy, ACI recommends the use of the A/TTM Series Matched transmitters with a 3 or 5 Point NIST Calibration Certificate since they include a second calibration process in which the RTD and transmitter are calibrated together as a system.
