L32E On board temperature sensor

4 posts in this topic

Good Day,

I have done a quick search and couldn't find any pertinent information, so I was hoping somebody else might have been through this in the past. We are using a 1769 L32E and are trying to record the ambient temperature of the cabinet the PLC is in. We don't want to incur the expense or use the space that an external temperature sensor/thermocouple would entail. Is there an onboard temperature sensor that has a tag available in the ladder?

Thanks,

Jed

A 1 foot length of Type E or T thermocouple wire twisted at the end would suffice.

...as long as you already have a thermocouple input module with a free input channel.

But, of course!
