ABB's 1TNE968902R1103, type AI563, completes the S500-eCo analog input family with 4 channels dedicated to thermocouple (TC) inputs at 16-bit resolution, wired 2-wire per channel. It shares the pluggable connector and IP20 housing of the other S500-eCo I/O modules and runs on the same AC500-eCo PLC backplane.
AI563 is the thermocouple-specific module in the S500-eCo analog input range: all 4 channels read TC sensors only, at 16-bit resolution, the highest resolution in this input group. That makes it the module to specify when the application measures temperature via thermocouples rather than RTDs or standard voltage/current loops, unlike the RTD-only or general-purpose U/I modules in the same range. The 2-wire connection per channel keeps wiring simple for thermocouple circuits that don't need multi-wire lead compensation.
