MU-Thermocouple1 CAN
Eight thermocouple inputs with on-board preprocessing and a CAN output
The MU-Thermocouple1 CAN takes eight thermocouples of one type (J, K or T, depending on the version) and sends their readings over high-speed CAN. A central microcontroller can preprocess the values before they go out on the bus.
Basic setup is done with the Thermocouple Configuration software and more advanced setups with PPCAN-Editor 2, both on a Windows PC connected to the same CAN bus.
Highlights
- 8 mini thermocouple sockets, type J, K or T depending on the version
- 4 galvanically isolated measuring modules, 2 sockets each
- On-board microcontroller for preprocessing
- Basic setup in Thermocouple Configuration, advanced setup in PPCAN-Editor 2
- Aluminium casing with flange, -40 to 85 C
Versions
- IPEH-002205-K: measuring range K, -200 to +1370 C
- IPEH-002205-J: measuring range J, -210 to +1121 C
- IPEH-002205-T: measuring range T, -200 to +400 C

Thermocouple probes are not part of the delivery. Setting up the module over CAN needs a PEAK CAN interface such as the PCAN-USB FD or the PCAN-USB.
For a CAN FD output, see the MU-Thermocouple1 CAN FD.
