INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
This device can be purchased as monitor (read process value only) or as
a controller.
• The iSeries Strain and Process monitors can measure a wide variety of DC
voltage and current inputs for all common load cells, pressure transducers
and strain gauge type of transducer. The voltage /current inputs are fully
scaleable to virtually all engineering units, with selectable decimal point,
perfect for use with pressure, flow or other process input.
• The iSeries monitor features a large, three color programmable display with
capability to change a color every time when Alarm is triggered. The standard
features include built-in excitation for transducers, selectable as 10V @ 60 mA
or 5 V @ 40 mA. (Built-in excitation is not available with optional isolated
RS-232/485 Serial Communication). Universal power supply accepts 90 to 240.
Low voltage power option accepts 24 Vac or 12 to 36 Vdc.
• Options include programmable RS-232 or RS-485 serial communication and
ethernet with an embedded web server.
