The TX13 in-head mounting thermocouple transmitter converts a thermocouple input over a configured range to a standard industrial (4 to 20 mA) transmission signal. A simple push button operation allows the user to select thermocouple type, burnout direction, select fixed ranges and trim 4 and 20 mA points. The in-head transmitter incorporates the latest digital technology to ensure accurate drift-free performance.

The default factory scaling is for a range of 0 to 1000°C and Type K thermocouple input, with up-scale burnout.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great buy Excellent device for tight applications. I put it inside a 3" junction box and fit perfectly.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Beginner I like the transmitter that you guys have, as it's very versatile. I am new to the field and I'm teaching myself setup and calibration. I thought that it would have been nice to know that I would have to expect to do that in advance and with more direction. The device certainly needed trimmed to the (-100C / 100C) range of the T type thermocouple. I thought that it would be a lot closer to the 4mA & 20mA output than it was. I had to buy a calibrator and learned how to operate the new machine and was able to trim that device to exactly (-100C / 100C) to 4mA & 20mA, and that was fun, and the device was easy to configure. It was so far off though it surprised me, it seems the true zero and span for the T type was actually set to something other than (-100C / 100C) so it's not plug and play, and maybe they never are. I'm a beginner, and now maybe a novice! What I've learned I will be able to apply to many things in our facility and I certainly like the easy configuration that your product offers, now that I know how it all works. The Best School is the School of Hard Knocks!

To use with Omega SA2C-K, type K TC with -50 to 200C range: -50 to to 200 is not one of the preconfigured ranges for TX13. What is the PN to order if we want the transmitter come with -50 to 200 reconfiguration?

Asked by: emali53
Thank you for the inquiry. You can add factory configuration option to a new TX13 with part# TX13-TX-SCALED. When placing order add scaling detail to description on PO copy. Else, if placing order via web site, add scaling details to Special Instructions box in line item details in shopping cart. Best regards OMEGA

Can you use any type of TC on this TX? ex. J or T if it only states K on the device?

Asked by: NCJOe
Thank you for your inquiry NCJOe. TX13 is compatible with K, J, N, E, T, R, S Thermocouples.
