Description:
The model SC-FF is a signal conditioner which permits the user
to condition and scale the input pulses from a pulse producing
sensor into a high level output where each pulse represents an
engineering unit of measure.
Several pulse input types are supported including magnetic
pickup, contact closure, and an isolated pulse input.
The pulse scaling permits a user to apply a scaling multiplier with
a value of .0001 to .9999 with additional multipliers of 1, .1, .01,
.001 and .0001. Pulse scaling is accomplished by rotary encoded and dip switch selections.
The pulse output is available in isolated, non-isolated and relay
versions. User selections include output pulse duration and internal pullup resistors. The user may select his pulse output
configuration by means of a dip switch.
The unit is powered to 8 - 35 VDC. Reverse polarity protection is
provided. Power and Pulse input/output indicators are provided.
The unit is available in enclosures intended for either DIN rail,
NEMA4X or Explosion Proof.
