Data Acquisition Unit 2100 (DAU 2100)
- DAU 2100 is used together with an associated radar level gauge for local read-out and for connection of temperature sensors.
- A multiple spot temperature sensor with up to 14 temperature elements can be connected to the DAU. The unit is powered from, and communicates through the radar gauge to which it is connected. The DAU is intrinsically safe using zener barriers on the Transmitter Interface Card (TIC) in the gauge.
- The weatherproof box houses a printed circuit board with a cable terminal for connection of the temperature sensors, as well as the power and communication cable. Cable glands are located at the bottom of the box
