Microcontroller-based temperature monitoring and alarm annunciation system design
Abstract : Wide range temperature monitoring and annunciation systems are implemented in many industrial applications and the present work is intended to develop a modern and easy-to-install temperature monitoring system that serves monitoring and annunciation of several nodes. The proposed system uses type-k thermocouples as primary sensing element; the output voltage from the thermocouple is amplified using suitable thermocouple amplifier circuits. The system is intended to measure temperatures in the range from 0 to 1250 °C at two different measuring points.
