Hi,
We are developing a new process using three reactors. Two reactors are each being heated/cooled by circulating oil temperature control systems. These units have their own controller as well as remote. Each reactor has two RTDs (one main, one backup) that report to the remote control cabinet which can switch between RTD inputs. Switching between inputs does not help. The controller in each of these cabinets displays temperature and functions correctly. The displays for the backup RTDs (Jenco 765 displays) are all over the map. I can use the zero function to dial it in and it remains stable for awhile then goes screwy. All RTDs are connected to their cabinets using 18AWG 3 conductor shielded cable. The heating units to have contactors which seem to affect the Jenco display for awhile. After a time they don't seem to bother it. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Joshua
