The Ultra SlimPak G408 is a DIN rail mount,
DC input signal conditioner with 1800VDC isolation between input, output and
power. The field configurable input and output offers flexible, wide ranging
capability for DC current and voltage signals.
The input of the G408 Ultra SlimPak can be
configured for any one of 12 voltage ranges from 10mV to 100V or 6 current
ranges from 1mA to 100mA (see table 1). The output is linear to the input and
can be set for either 0-5V, 0-10V, 0-1mA, 0-20mA or 4-20mA (for models
G408-0001) and -5 to +5V or -10 to +10V (for model G408- 1001).
Wide ranging, precision zero and span pots
allow 50% adjustability of offset and span turn-down within each of the 18
switch selectable ranges. For example, the 0-2mA input range could be turned
down to 0-1mA and provide a full scale output signal (e.g. 4-20mA), or turned
down and offset to achieve a 1-2mA/4-20mA I/O combination.
The G408 also accepts bipolar inputs (e.g.
10V range set to bipolar = -10 to +10V) and offers selectable normal or reverse
operation (e.g. 4-20mA/20-4mA). The ASIC based I/O channel is optically
isolated to 1800VDC and is transformer isolated from the power supply.
Application The Ultra SlimPak G408 field
configurable isolator is useful in eliminating ground loops, converting signal
levels, and providing signal drive. The field configurable, wide ranging
capability ensures maximum flexibility for most DC to DC applications,
minimizing spare part requirements. |
