Description
The API 4380 G HV3 accepts a DC voltage input and provides
an optically isolated DC voltage or current output that is linearly
related to the input. This module is unique because it is field
rangeable for voltage inputs to ±200 VDC. Typical applications
include signal isolation and signal conversion.
The optical isolation between input and output makes this
module useful for ground loop elimination, common mode
signal rejection, and noise pickup reduction. The module
power supply is isolated, resulting in full 3-way (input, output,
power) isolation.
The API 4380 G HV3 input and output can be field-configured
via external rotary and slide switches. Common range settings
are on the module label. Most common ranges are built-in, and
can be selected from the table on the module, however virtually
unlimited combinations are possible. Consult the factory for
assistance with special ranges.
LoopTracker
API exclusive features include two LoopTracker LEDs (green for
input, red for output) that vary in intensity with changes in the
process input and output signals. These provide a quick visual
picture of your process loop at all times and can greatly aid in
saving time during initial startup and/or troubleshooting.
Output Test
An API exclusive feature includes the Functional Test Button
to provide a fixed output (independent of the input) when held
depressed. The test output level can be set via a potentiometer
from 0 to 100% of the output span.
The functional test button greatly aids in saving time during
initial startup and/or troubleshooting.
Installation
The API 4380 G HV3 plug into an industry standard 8-pin octal
socket sold separately. Sockets API 008 and finger-safe API
008 FS allow either DIN rail or panel mounting.
The plug-in design, 3-way isolation, and robust electronics
allows the module to be quickly hot-swapped without removing
the power or I/O signals.
