What is a Measuring Chain?
The temperature data used to monitor or control your process results from a sensor transmitting a signal to an electronic device (panel meter, chart recorder, or PLC). All components involved with the measurement are responsible for the accuracy of the data. From the tip of each sensor, via the connecting wires, signal interface, analog to digital conversion, conversion from millivolts to temperature, to display and printout of the measured values are referred to as the Measuring Chain.
