The APD 6380 accepts an AC voltage or current input and provides an optically isolated DC voltage or current output that is linearly related to the input.
Typical applications include signal isolation, conversion, boosting or a combination of the three. Full 3-way isolation (input, output, power) makes this module useful for ground loop elimination, common mode signal rejection or noise pickup reduction.
Sink/Source Output Versatility
For maximum versatility a milliamp output can be selectively wired for sinking or sourcing. This allows the APD 6380 milliamp output to connect to a powered or unpowered current loop. The 20 VDC output loop supply can be used to power a passive mA device if required.
LoopTracker
API exclusive features include two LoopTracker LEDs (green for input, red for output) that vary in intensity with changes in the process input and output signals. These provide a quick visual picture of your process loop at all times and can greatly aid in saving time during initial startup and/or troubleshooting.
Output Test
An API exclusive feature includes the test button to provide a fixed output (independent of the input) when held depressed. The test output level is potentiometer adjustable from 0 to 100% of output span. The output test button greatly aids in saving time during initial startup and/or troubleshooting
