Introduction
Your practical requirements are many
Just like our ACT20P signal isolating converters
The reliable isolation and specic conversion of analogue signals plays an
increasingly important role in many areas of industry and technology. When
we developed the ACT20P signal converter we took full account of various
technical requirements of machine engineering, the process industry and energy
technology. In particular, the specications of EN61010-1 provided important
basic parameters for the technology of the equipment.
Ideally suited for the process industry and energy
technology
In water treatment plants, conveyor technology, gas and
coal-red power plants, energy distribution stations and
in many other types of plant in the process and energy
technology sector signal converters have two main functions:
on the one hand, they provide reliable galvanic isolation –
especially if the cables of the sensors from the eld
are several hundred meters in length. On the other hand,
our signal converters enable individual signals such as
potentiometer signals from rotary encoders or TC type
J signals from temperature sensors to be adapted for the
standardised inputs of DCS- or Remote-i/o-systems.
Perfectly equipped for the machine engineering
sector
Filling systems and packaging machines used in the food
or pharmaceutical industry, for example, are a classic area
of application for signal converters. They convert analogue
signals such as temperature, pressure, ll level, ow, weight,
etc. directly into standard signals for processing by the PLC.
And best of all: a signal converter solution usually costs
much less than an input module in the remote-i/o-system
adapted to the specic requirements of the sensor.
