Installation
Electrostatic Sensitivity
The MicroTC is an electrostatic sensitive device. The terminals should
not be touched except during soldering. Soldering should be performed
at electrostatic discharge protected workstations. Wires attached to the
MicroTC should not be touched either.
If an electrostatic discharge protected workstation is not available, use a
grounded wrist-strap and ground the MicroTC. Do not handle the device in
areas where static charges are obviously present. Always store the MicroTC
in an anti-static bag or container when not in use.
Electrical Installation
Wires soldered to the signal terminals should be covered with heat shrink
tubing. This will both protect the terminals from electrical shorting as well as
provide strain relief for the wires.
The signal terminals on the MicroTC are color coded and labeled to help
determine which supply or output signal corresponds to which terminal. The
signals and terminal colors are shown in the table below:

Linearization Formulas
The output of the MicroTC is a linear 5 mV/°C over an input range
of -25 °C to 400 °C. Outside of this range, linearizing formulas
can be used to determine temperature within the specified error.
The following formulas use the voltage from the amplifier as the
independent variable and generate temperature in °C.
T = Temperature in °C
V = Voltage from amplifier
Range: -60 °C to 970 °C
T = 0.1744 x V4- 0.8386 x V3- 1.4378 x V2+ 204.33 x V - 1.6323
Range: -200 °C to 100 °C
T = -137.02 x V4+ 35.24 x V3- 0.3931 x V2+ 207.1 x V - 1.1512

Operations
The MicroTC must be powered with +7 to +16 V and a common. See
Electrical Installation section of this manual for instructions on how to
connect these supplies to the proper terminals. The MicroTC signals should
be measured with respect to the common terminal.
Current flows in the ground line, so there will be a voltage drop along the
length of the conductor. This will create an offset if the signals are measured
with respect to the common at the Remote Amplifier Control Unit. It is
recommended that the signals are measured with respect to the common
wire at the amplifier. This can be accomplished by adding a second common
line from the amplifier to the recording device.

Data Recording Device
Slip Ring
6
The output high is measured relative to the ground wire. It is
recommended that a separate wire for signal common is added to
the common terminal to reduce errors from voltage drops along
the power common wire. When using the MicroTC with a slip ring
assembly, a separate signal common can be added to the stator of a
slip ring to decrease the amount of rings needed, but it is important to
place the amplifier as close as possible to the slip ring.
The thermocouple sensor should be attached using the provided
mating connector (Omega± HMPW-*-M). If a thermocouple input is
left unused or if the thermocouple opens, the output of the amplifier
will rise to V+. The amplifier will not be damaged if a thermocouple is
left unattached.

Operation with PS Series Amplifier Control Unit
Any Michigan Scientific Remote Amplifier Control Unit will provide
±15 Volts and common. These control units have switches that control
bridge excitation and shunt calibration. For use with MicroTC units,
the Bridge Excitation switch should be turned on, and the Shunt
Calibration switch is unused.
The Remote Amplifier Control Units reverse the polarity of the ±15 V
terminals when the bridge excitation switch is off. The MicroTC-S will
power off in this condition.
