DSCA

High Performance DIN Isolated Analog Signal Conditioners

Description

Each Instrument-ClassTM DSCA module provides a single channel of isolated
analog input or output. Various input modules accept analog voltage or current
signals from all types of field sensors and sources and filter, isolate, amplify,
linearize, and convert these input signals to high-level analog outputs suitable
for use in data acquisition, test and measurement, and control systems. Output
modules accept high-level analog voltage signals from a system, then buffer, isolate,
filter, and amplify before providing a current or voltage output to a field device.
