Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 4-20mA thermostat and how does it work?

A 4-20mA thermostat is a temperature controller that outputs a current signal proportional to the measured temperature. It operates on a standard analog loop where 4mA typically represents the lowest temperature and 20mA the highest within the configured range. The thermostat reads the temperature from a sensor (like a thermocouple or RTD), processes it through internal control algorithms, and adjusts the output current accordingly. This signal is then transmitted to a PLC, DCS, or other control devices. The advantage of this system is its immunity to electrical interference and its ability to transmit over long distances without signal loss. Our thermostats also include control outputs (relay or SSR) to directly manage heating or cooling elements, ensuring precise temperature regulation.
Wiring a 4-20mA thermostat to a PLC is straightforward. Typically, you connect the thermostat's output terminals to an analog input module on the PLC, ensuring correct polarity. The 4-20mA loop usually requires a power supply (often 24V DC) and can be wired in a two-wire or four-wire configuration. Our thermostats are designed with clear terminal markings, making installation simple. For detailed wiring diagrams, please refer to the user manual provided with your specific model. Our technical support team is also available to assist you with any questions. It's crucial to ensure that the PLC input configuration matches the 4-20mA range and that proper grounding is implemented to avoid ground loops.
Yes, many of our 4-20mA thermostat models support PT100 RTD sensors. PT100 sensors are known for their high accuracy and stability, making them ideal for precise temperature monitoring. Our thermostats with PT100 input provide linearized output within the configured range, ensuring accurate 4-20mA signal conversion. You can select the appropriate sensor type via the thermostat's menu. For example, the XMTG-2001 series offers selectable K/E type thermocouples and PT100 inputs. When using a PT100, it's recommended to use a suitable connection (2, 3, or 4-wire) to minimize lead resistance errors. Our user manuals detail the connection methods. If your application requires PT100, we have models that are optimized for this sensor.
Our 4-20mA thermostats boast an accuracy of ±0.2% of full scale, which is exceptional in the industry. For example, if your temperature range is 0-400°C, the maximum deviation is ±0.8°C. This high accuracy is achieved through careful calibration and the use of high-quality components. Each unit is individually tested and a calibration certificate is provided upon request. For even higher precision, we offer models with a resolution of 0.1°C. In addition, the 4-20mA output itself has a linearity error of less than 0.1%, ensuring reliable signal transmission. Our commitment to accuracy ensures that your processes maintain tight control, reducing waste and enhancing product quality.
We offer comprehensive OEM/ODM services to tailor a 4-20mA thermostat to your exact requirements. You can specify parameters such as temperature range, sensor type, output configurations, display options, communication protocols (e.g., RS485 Modbus), and even custom housing or branding. Our engineering team will work closely with you to develop a solution that seamlessly integrates with your system. With in-house R&D and production capabilities, we can handle small to large batches. Contact our sales team with your specifications, and we will provide a detailed proposal and sample development timeline. We pride ourselves on our flexibility and quick turnaround times, ensuring you get the right product when you need it.
