Conditioner Converts Pulse Rate Signals into 4-20mA

C16-10 Frequency to Analogue Converter The C16-10 is suitable for many applications where an analogue signal proportional to frequency or pulse rate is required, for example interfacing PLCs and other control and monitoring devices with analogue only inputs and where the outputs of flowmeters and water meters are converted into a 4-20mA signal for telemetry purposes.

The C16-10 handles a wide range of input signal types with open-collector, volt-free contact, 1-3mA pulse (NAMUR), and voltage inputs from10 mV to 250 Volts - sine, square or triangular waveforms all available as standard at the terminal connections.

The Frequency to Analogue Converter will accept frequencies from as low as 0 – 0.1 Hz up to as high as 0 – 10 kHz.

The C16-10 can be supplied pre-configured to customer's requirements or supplied with 'standard' settings for user configuration with the optional programming kit. The configuration software supports frequency range changing, for example - to suit a turbine meter replacement, and optimisation of digital filtering to suit noisy site conditions.
