Advantech ADAM-6018+| 8-Ch Thermocouple Input Module

Eight Channel Thermocouple Temperature Acquisition
The ADAM-6018+ provides eight differential thermocouple input channels, enabling multiple temperature points to be monitored through one compact Ethernet I/O module. This supports efficient control panel design and reduces the number of devices needed for multi zone temperature applications.

Support For Seven Thermocouple Types
The module supports J, K, T, E, R, S, and B thermocouples. This broad sensor compatibility gives engineers the flexibility to measure a wide range of industrial process temperatures using the sensor type best suited to the application.

High Temperature Measurement Capability
The ADAM-6018+ supports temperature ranges from -100 to 400°C for Type T thermocouples and up to 1,800°C for Type B thermocouples. This makes it well suited for thermal processes involving ovens, furnaces, kilns, heat treatment equipment, and other high temperature production systems.

16 Bit Resolution And Reliable Accuracy
The module delivers 16 bit resolution with accuracy of up to ±0.1% of full scale range for J, K, E, R, and S thermocouple types at 25°C. This measurement performance helps provide dependable temperature data for process monitoring, quality assurance, and equipment protection.

Wire Burnout Detection For Sensor Diagnostics
Built in wire burnout detection helps identify disconnected or damaged thermocouple sensors. This capability allows connected systems to recognize potential sensor failures promptly and helps prevent inaccurate readings from being treated as valid process data.

Ethernet Protocol Flexibility For Industrial Systems
The ADAM-6018+ supports Modbus TCP, TCP/IP, UDP, and RESTful communication. D version models also support MQTT and SNMP, providing flexible connectivity for PLCs, SCADA systems, network management platforms, cloud connected applications, and industrial databases.

Standalone Logic With Peer To Peer And GCL Support
Peer to Peer connectivity and Graphic Condition Logic allow the module to be configured for direct I/O control and logic based actions. These functions can simplify automation architectures by reducing reliance on external controllers for selected monitoring and control tasks.

Industrial Isolation And Environmental Durability
The ADAM-6018+ includes 2,000 VDC isolation protection, TVS and ESD protection, and power reversal protection. It is designed for operation from -10 to 70°C, with D version models supporting operation from -40 to 70°C.
