Overview

The 4WHB10K provides the completion resistor required for four-wire half-bridge measurements. This module should be used with sensors that have a 10 kΩ resistance.

Data Logger Considerations

The 4WHB10K uses two sequential differential analog inputs; the first differential channel must have an adjacent analog ground channel to accept the "ground prong" of the 4WHB10K. Not all data logger terminal strips have this sequence on all channels, so please check your data logger's wiring panel to confirm channel assignments, especially if you plan to use multiple Terminal Input Modules.

Newer CR10X Wiring Panels and the CR10XTCR Thermocouple Cover are deep enough to cover the data logger input channels with a Terminal Input Module attached; older CR10TCRs are not deep enough.

Programming

The 4WHB10K is measured either with CRBasic's BrHalf4W Instruction or Edlog's Instruction 9 (Full-Bridge with Excitation Compensation).
