Hello Wesley, I join two pictures of a Promux PM8TC installation

On the first (named "PromuxClosed.jpg") :

All you see is the box containing  the PM8TC with is power Supply and his RS232/RS485 converter.
Surrounded by green :  Power supply output
surrounded by blue    :  RS232 output
surrounded by red      :  Thermocouples output

On the second (named "PromuxOpen.jpg") :

Surrounded by green : The  Power supply
Surrounded by blue    : RS232/RS485 converter
Surrounded by red      : The Promux PM8TC

As always, thanks for all the great feedback.  I've also come across an Omega TCIC 8ch over USB or RS232 (RS485 option available), priced at $630.  I really like the looks of the Promux PM8TC that Sebastien suggested as well..

Hello Wesley,

We are using a Promux PM8TC from Procon Electronics. You can connect up to 8 thermocouples, provided within the box, with a 2 meters cables.
The interface is Modbus RS-485.

Hope this helps,

There are also one-wire serial strings. They do not do well in a rediation environment - but they are cheap. We are distributing them around our equipment.

Depending you how dispursed the TC's are, you might consider something like the AdvanTech ADAM 4000 or 5000 series modules.

The ADAM4011 is a single channel device that communicates over RS485, and the ADAM 5000 family includes small, chassis based Ethernet or serially connected modules that can handle single - 7 channel devices.

Take a look at

000_page.htm>

Small, lightweight devices that don't require much support to do their job.

Later-

David
