Description
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 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 G408 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.
