WIRING CONNECTIONS
Primary power is connected to terminals 7 or 3 (19.2 – 30 VDC) and 8 or 4
(GND 3). For best results, the power should be relatively “clean” and within the
specified variation limits. Drawing power from heavily loaded circuits or from
circuits that also power loads that cycle on and off, should be avoided.
The input signal is connected to pins 1 (In U,I) and 2 (GND 1). Connections
for the output signal are made on pins 5 (Out U,I) and 6 (GND 2).
INSTALLATION
The unit is equipped with a universal mounting foot for attachment to
standard DIN style top hat (T) profile rail according to EN50022 - 35 x 7.5 and
35 x 15. The unit should be installed in a location that does not exceed the
maximum operating temperature and provides good air circulation. Placing the
unit near devices that generate excessive heat should be avoided.
T Rail Installation
To install the IAMA on a “T”
style rail, angle the module so that
the top groove of the “foot” is
located over the lip of the top rail.
Push the module toward the rail
until it snaps into place. To
remove a module from the rail,
insert a screwdriver into the slot
on the bottom of the “foot”, and
pry upwards on the module until it
releases from the rail.
APPLICATION
Cost efficiency measurements of a printing company included the reduction
of bulk stock of the various inks used in their printing processes. The
company currently had various ink flow and level devices with different
current and voltage outputs and wanted to record these measurements into a
control room PC. Several IAMA Universal Signal Conditioning Modules
were the answer. The IAMA’s universal input allowed for easy signal
conditioning of the various output signals to the required PC’s Bus Board
0 to 10 VDC input signal. In this case, the IAMA’s re-transmitted 0 to 10
VDC output was field calibrated, negating the expense and time
required to rewrite the PC’s software parameters. In addition to
accepting multiple signal types, the IAMA also provides the
necessary electrical isolation between the control room PC
and the hazards of the printing floor electrical noise.
