Limit-value switch for temperature, input NiCr-Ni-type K thermocouple 1 Straightforward application Suitable for severe operating conditions Compact construction Limit value freely adjustable by drum scale Anti-tamper seal for drum scale Meet high EMC-requirements Limit-value switches Volt-free output as change over switch contact Open-circuit or closed-circuit variants available Reference junction for temperature compensation integrated Broken-wire monitoring for input signal Operating characteristics displayed by integrated LEDs Flame-inhibiting and self-extinguishing body Suitable thermocouples are available Limit-value switches of series 5 Limit value switches of the series 5 are designed to monitor and process electric measured variables. Working principle: When the actual value of the measuring signal supplied reaches the setpoint, the built-in relay will operate. The switching status of the relay contact may, for instance, be monitored or individually processed by a machine controller. General notes on Type RTK5.. Description RTK5.. The Type RTK5.. is designed for the temperature monitoring Volt-free relay contact, closed-circuit or open-circuit version A volt-free relay contact is provided as a change over switch with NiCr-Ni-type K thermocouples according to EN60584-1.

The scale is graduated in degrees Celsius to suit the speciﬁc measuring range. Any value on the drum scale can be selected as the limit value. Monitoring sensor integrity The RTK5.. type series comes equipped with broken-wire monitoring. If either or both wires to the thermocouple should be broken, the relay output will operate, the red LED will light up, and the green
