Featuring 4 inputs for resistance temperature measurement, this module supports PT100 and PT1000 sensors and is optimized for 3-wire connection configurations. The \"c\" designation indicates that the electronics are protected by a conformal coating, providing superior resistance against condensation and corrosive gases, making it ideal for chemical processing, outdoor infrastructure, or humid production facilities. It delivers consistent data fidelity with a resolution of 0.1 deg C, helping to minimize thermal measurement errors in critical closed-loop control applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe module architecture is built on a 16-bit sigma-delta converter, ensuring high accuracy and low noise performance across all four channels. Each channel is independently configurable for sensor type, allowing for flexible integration of mixed PT100\/PT1000 sensor arrays within a single module. The X20cAT4222 supports a wide range of resistance measurements (0.1 to 4500 Ohm for PT100\/PT1000) and includes a configurable input filter (1 ms to 66.7 ms) to mitigate industrial noise. Diagnostics are managed through integrated status LEDs and software feedback, providing immediate alerts for open-circuit faults or measurement range overshoots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\"\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\"\u003eX20cAT4222\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\"\u003eB\u0026amp;R\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\"\u003eInputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\"\u003e4 (Resistance Temperature)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"5\"\u003eSensor Support\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"5\"\u003ePT100 \/ PT1000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"6\"\u003eResolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"6\"\u003e0.1 deg C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"7\"\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"7\"\u003e3-wire\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"8\"\u003eConversion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"8\"\u003e16-bit Sigma-delta\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"9\"\u003eCoating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"9\"\u003eConformal (Condensation \u0026amp; Corrosive Gas resistant)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"10\"\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"10\"\u003e-25 to 60 deg C (Horizontal)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"11\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"11\"\u003e1.5 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the benefit of the \"coated\" designation in X20cAT4222?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe conformal coating on the internal electronics protects the module from high humidity, condensation, and corrosive industrial gases.
