TC-IXL061 Honeywell 6-Channel Thermocouple Module 16-Bit Input

TC-IXL061 Honeywell Thermocouple Input Module, 6-Point

The TC-IXL061 is a 6-channel thermocouple input module for Honeywell control systems. It reads B, E, J, K, R, S, T, N, and C thermocouples. Resolution is 16 bits (1.4 µV typical). Accuracy is 0.1% FSR. Common mode rejection reaches 120 dB at 60 Hz. This module is replaced by the TC/TK-IXL062. Rewiring the terminal block is required when upgrading. A new pre-wire cable is needed when using the RTP. The module suits non-hazardous industrial cabinets.

Key Technical Data

• Points: 6 channels plus 1 cold junction channel
• Input ranges: -12 mV to +78 mV; -12 mV to +30 mV (high resolution)
• Resolution: 16 bits (1.4 µV typical); 0.70 µV on high resolution range
• Accuracy at 25°C: 0.1% FSR ±90 µV (78 mV range); 0.1% FSR ±42 µV (30 mV range)
• Cold junction error: ±0.3°C (remote); ±0.3°C to ±3.0°C (local, by channel)
• Common mode rejection: 120 dB @ 60 Hz; 100 dB @ 50 Hz
• Update rate: 50 ms for all channels
• Settling time: under 80 ms to 5% of full scale
• Open TC detection: upscale reading; 5 seconds typical
• Channel bandwidth: 0 to 15 Hz (-3 dB)
• Normal mode rejection: 60 dB @ 60 Hz
• RFI immunity: error under 2.0% at 10 V/m, 27 to 1000 MHz
• Overvoltage: 120 VAC/VDC continuous at 25°C
• Drift: 0.5 µV/°C offset; 65 ppm/°C gain
• Power dissipation: 4.3 W max
• Isolation: 2546 VDC for 1s, channel to channel and user to system
• Terminal block: TC-TBNH, 20-position
• Spare CJR thermistor: TC-CJRT01 (part no. 51109433-100)

Mounting and Enclosure Guidance

• Use a NEMA 4 or NEMA 12 enclosure.
• Size about 24 in. wide, 20 in. high, 8 in. deep (610 x 508 x 203 mm).
• This keeps reference junction compensation within ±3°C (±5°F).
• Mount away from direct heat sources.

Oiltech Controls’s Insight

• The TC-IXL061 suits legacy Honeywell racks with existing TC-TBNH terminal blocks.
• Plan a rewire if you migrate to the TC/TK-IXL062.
• The 16-bit resolution handles small thermocouple signals well.
• High resolution range (-12 mV to +30 mV) improves low-level accuracy.
• Check cold junction sensor type before commissioning.

Compatible Equipment

• Honeywell ControlNet and legacy I/O racks.
• Systems using TC-TBNH 20-position terminal blocks.
• RTP installations needing the new pre-wire cable.
• Non-hazardous NEMA 4 or NEMA 12 cabinets.
• Process lines with B, E, J, K, R, S, T, N, or C thermocouples.

FAQ

Q: Can I drop the TC-IXL061 into a rack that uses TC/TK-IXL062?

A: No. The TC-IXL061 is the older module. The TC/TK-IXL062 replaces it. You must rewire the terminal block. If you use the RTP, order the new pre-wire cable.

Q: Which thermocouple types does this module read?

A: It reads B, E, J, K, R, S, T, N, and C types. The 16-bit resolution handles small signal changes. Use the high resolution range (-12 mV to +30 mV) for low-level thermocouples.

Q: How do I keep cold junction compensation within ±3°C?

A: Mount the chassis in a NEMA 4 or NEMA 12 enclosure. Use a size near 24 in. wide, 20 in. high, and 8 in. deep. This matches Honeywell guidance for stable reference junction temperature.

Q: What happens if a thermocouple opens?

A: The module shows an upscale reading. Detection takes about 5 seconds. Check the wiring and the TC-TBNH terminal block if you see this fault.

Q: Should I buy new or refurbished for an obsolete rack?

A: For legacy racks, tested refurbished units often make sense. Confirm the terminal block type and the RTP cable need first. Oiltech Controls tests each module before shipment and offers a 12-month warranty.
