Isolated 4-20 mA Transmitter Output

Output Source:

 Process channel A, V, or P, max or min for 

channel A, V, or highest or lowest max or min of A and V, set points 

1-8, Modbus input, or manual control mode

Scaling Range:

 1.000 to 23.000 mA for any display range

Calibration:

 Factory calibrated: 4.000 to 20.000 = 4-20 mA output

Analog Output Programming:

 23.000 mA maximum for all 

parameters: Overrange, underrange, max, min, and break

Accuracy:

 ± 0.1% of span ± 0.004 mA

Temperature Drift:

 0.4 μA/°C max from 0 to 65°C ambient,

 

0.8 μA/°C max from -40 to 0°C ambient

 

Note: Analog output drift is separate from input drift.
