Flexible computation transmitter functionality plus convenient
reprogrammability makes this instrument extremely powerful and
useful over a broad range of applications. Input operators for
addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division are provided.
The unit also provides functions for square root, absolute value,
min/max selection, exponential, logarithmic, power, sine, cosine,
tangent, arc-sine, arc-tangent, and arc-cosine generation, plus IF-
THEN-ELSE conditional constructs. The output may produce a
normal (ascending), or reverse (descending) response.
All IntelliPack modules are designed to withstand harsh
industrial environments. They feature RFI, EMI, ESD, EFT, and
surge protection, plus low temperature drift, wide ambient
temperature operation, and isolation between input, output, and
power. They also have low radiated emissions per CE
requirements. As a wide-range DC-powered device, the unit may
be powered from DC power networks incorporating battery back-
up. Additionally, the input power terminal is diode-coupled,
providing reverse polarity protection. This allows the unit to be
connected to redundant power supplies, or several units to safely
share a single DC supply.
Units are DIN-rail mounted and removable terminal blocks
facilitate ease of installation and replacement, without having to
remove wiring. Transmitter power and output wiring are inserted
at one side of the unit, while input wiring is inserted at the other
side. Connectors are an industry standard screw clamp type and
accept a wide range of wire sizes.
The safe, compact, rugged, reconfigurable, and reliable
design of this transmitter makes it an ideal choice for control
room and field applications. Custom IntelliPack module
configurations are also possible (please consult the factory).

Generous Mathematical Operator & Function Support
-
This transmitter may mathematically combine up to four
inputs using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and
division. In addition, functions for square root, absolute
value, min/max detection, exponential, logarithmic, power,
sine, cosine, tangent, arc-sine, arc-tangent, and arc-cosine
generation are supported. Conditional constructs with IF-
THEN-ELSE are also included. Other functions are
possible
—please consult the factory.
•
IF-THEN-ELSE Support
- Module will evaluate a conditional
formula using IF-THEN-ELSE, AND, OR, plus >, >=, <, <=,
=, and <>.
•
Nonvolatile Reprogrammable Memory
- This module has
an advanced technology microcontroller with integrated,
non-volatile, downloadable flash memory and EEPROM.
This allows the functionality of this device to be reliably
reprogrammed thousands of times.
•
Fully Isolated
- Input, output, and power are isolated from
each other for safety and increased noise immunity. Inputs
share common and are not isolated channel-to-channel.
•
Universal Analog Outputs
- Supports process current
output ranges of 0-20mA, 4-20mA, and 0-1mA, or 0-5V and
0-10V. Current outputs may drive up to 550
, typical.
Voltage outputs include short circuit protection.
