System compatibility
cFP-CB-3 belongs to NI Compact FieldPoint platform.It mates with single-width Compact FieldPoint I/O modules and cFP-BP series backplanes,optimized for thermocouple temperature acquisition modules,widely used for industrial temperature signal wiring.It is spare part for legacy automation equipment overhaul.
Function
cFP-CB-3 is isothermal screw terminal connector block specially designed for thermocouple measurement.It adopts isothermal structure to minimize temperature gradient for accurate cold junction compensation,with wire strain relief for anti-vibration wiring.It supports hot-swap I/O module replacement without removing field thermocouple wires.
Installation
Mount cFP-CB-3 onto the front of single-width Compact FieldPoint I/O module,tighten captive mounting screws.Wire thermocouple cables to front screw terminals.Take ESD protection before installation.
Interface
‑Front 36 screw terminal block for thermocouple and field wiring
‑Rear mating connector to cFP I/O module
‑Wire tie anchor points for cable fixing
Feature
cFP-CB-3 classic NI thermocouple dedicated terminal block.Typical faults:screw terminal corrosion,isothermal sensor damage,connector pin oxidation.Inspect terminals and wire connections before replacement.
Diagnostic
Fault phenomenon:temperature reading drift,intermittent signal,poor contact.Check terminal screw tightness,clean contact pins,verify cold junction compensation status.

Product Brief
cFP-CB-3 is NI Compact FieldPoint 36-point isothermal screw terminal block dedicated for thermocouple signals,with built-in cold junction compensation and wire strain relief,used for industrial temperature measurement wiring.Mainly used for maintenance and replacement of old industrial automation equipment.ESD protection must be followed during handling.
