### 2. Key Electronic Specifications
The electronic architecture is designed for high-precision signal conditioning and isolation.
* **Input Section:** Specifically designed for a 3-wire Pt 100 RTD. It features burnout protection (upscale as standard) to ensure the system detects a broken wire.
* **Output Section:** Provides a linear 4–20 mA signal proportional to the temperature sensed.
* **Isolation:** 3-way isolation (Input to Output to Power). This prevents ground loops and protects sensitive PLC/DCS equipment from electrical surges.
* **Response Time:** Usually $\leq$ 0.5 seconds (0 – 90%).

### 3. Connection Diagram (Internal Logic)
The device is a "Plug-in" type, meaning the electronic components are housed in a module that snaps into a base socket.
| Terminal No. | Function | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **1** | Output (+) | 4 – 20 mA positive lead |
| **2** | Output (-) | 4 – 20 mA negative lead |
| **3** | Power (L/+) | AC Live or DC Positive |
| **4** | Power (N/-) | AC Neutral or DC Negative |
| **5** | Input (A) | RTD Wire A |
| **6** | Input (B) | RTD Wire B |
| **7** | Input (B) | RTD Wire B (Sense) |
