The isolated input signal conditioner Automation Direct FC-33 is a versatile DIN-rail or side-mount signal conditioner designed for industrial automation applications. It provides selectable input and output signal conditioning with 1500VDC isolation between input and output, as well as between the 24-volt power and I/O, ensuring safe and reliable operation in demanding environments. Its field-configurable input/output types support a wide range of signals, including 0-5V, 0-10V, 0-20 mA, and 4-20 mA, making the FC-33 Automation Direct isolated output signal conditioner highly adaptable to different system requirements.
The Signal Conditioner and Isolator FC-33 features built-in self-calibration along with OFFSET and SPAN adjustments. OFFSET allows 0 to 25% of full-scale input adjustment, while SPAN covers 80% to 102%, providing precise control over output signal scaling. A level LED provides visual feedback proportional to the input signal during normal operation and indicates the internal calibration process during setup, simplifying field adjustments.
A CAL pushbutton on the Automation Direct FC-33 enables easy calibration of OFFSET and SPAN or restoration of factory default settings. This user-friendly feature ensures accurate signal translation and quick system setup without requiring specialized tools.
The Automation Direct FC-33 PDF also offers three-way isolation, solving many configuration problems such as eliminating ground loops or converting sinking inputs to sourcing outputs. It allows current-to-voltage or voltage-to-current signal translation, making the Automation Direct FC-33 Signal Conditioner and Isolator ideal for systems with mixed signal types or limited analog input channels, enhancing flexibility and reliability in industrial control applications.
