Sensor Installation Guidelines
Thermocouple inputs: Extension wire for thermocouples must be of the same
alloy as the thermocouple to limit errors.
When using a process signal (4-20mA, 0-5VÎ [dc], etc.) for the remote set point
or a voltage input for the digital input 2, use an ungrounded or isolated
thermocouple. If a grounded thermocouple is required, the signal to input 2 must
be isolated to prevent possible ground loops.
RTD input: Each 1Ω of lead wire resistance can cause a +2°F error when using
a two-wire RTD. A three-wire RTD sensor overcomes this problem. All three
wires must have the same electrical resistance (i.e., same gauge, same length,
multi-stranded or solid, same metal).
Process input: Isolation must be maintained between input 1 and input 2. If
both input 1 and input 2 are process signals, a separate power supply and
transmitter must be used for each input. These inputs must be electrically
isolated from one another to prevent ground loops.
There are no electrical connections between these blocks.

Watlow Series 96 Wiring ■ 3.1
NOTE:
It is advisable to check
Output 1-4 hardware.
These outputs may differ
from those listed for the
model number on the
controller and described
in this manual,
indicating a customized
hardware setup.
ç
CAUTION:
If high voltage is applied
to a low-voltage unit,
irreversible damage will
occur.
ç∫
WARNING:
To avoid damage to
property and equipment,
and/or injury of loss of
life, use National
Electric Code (NEC)
standard wiring practices
to install and operate the
Series 96. Failure to do
so could result in injury
or death.
ç
CAUTION:
Maintain isolation
between input 1 and
input 2 to prevent a
ground loop. A ground
loop may cause incorrect
readings, dashes across
the upper display or the
display of error codes.
Failure to follow this
guideline could result in
damage to equipment
and product.
