The Woodward 5464-334 Isolated 4-20mA Analog Input 8 Channel Module is a component designed for industrial control and monitoring applications. With eight dedicated input channels, this module provides reliable and isolated analog input signals to a control system or data acquisition system.
Here are some key features and specifications of the Woodward 5464-334 module:
1. Analog Input Channels: The module offers eight input channels, allowing it to simultaneously monitor up to eight analog signals. Each channel is capable of accepting a 4-20mA current loop input.
2. Isolation: The module provides electrical isolation between the input channels and the receiving system. This isolation helps protect the system from electrical noise and interference, ensuring accurate and reliable measurements.
3. Input Range: The module is designed to accept 4-20mA current loop signals as input. The input range is commonly used in industrial applications to represent various process parameters such as temperature, pressure, level, or flow.
4. Resolution and Accuracy: The module is likely to have a specified resolution and accuracy that determines the precision of the analog-to-digital conversion and the measurement results.
5. Communication Interface: The module typically interfaces with the control system or data acquisition system through a standardized communication protocol, such as Modbus or Profibus. This allows for easy integration and data transmission between the module and the receiving system.
