Sensor signal conditioners help convert sensor signals to a more usable format. Sensor signal conditioners allow industry standard sensors to be connected to available PC or PLC inputs. The PC or PLC input where the connection needs to be made is not normally sensor compatible. The signal conditioning converts the sensor signal format into the PC or PLC input format. Typical inputs for a PC are USB, Ethernet, etc. Typical inputs for a PLC can be RS232, RS485, 20mA, 10Vdc, etc.
LIVE ZERO 4-20MA INSTRUMENTATION SIGNAL KEY ADVANTAGE Below 4mA indicates an electrical problem. When we say live zero is a key advantage of 4-20mA instrumentation signals, how do you implement that, what do you use? The ROI-XMA is an improved way to read sensors. Multiple sensor types. Multiple signal ranges. High linearity. High precision. Fast response. Long […]

ANALOG SIGNAL CONDITIONER BENEFITS Analog sensor signal conditioners have specific features that offer capabilities that cannot be filled by a microprocessor signal conditioner. Microprocessor based sensor signal conditioners have a number of basic limitations, when compared to analog sensor signal conditioners. Speed and resolution are the two, most important differences. Microprocessor based sensor signal conditioners

Example 4-20mA thermistor transmitter wiring diagram A Simple 4-20mA Transmitter Operation Description The 4-20mA transmitter can be looked at as a temperature controlled variable load. It is in series with the power supply and current measurement shunt resistance. The effect is similar to the transmitter acting like a potentiometer. One that will vary total load
