3.7 ADAM-4017/4017+/4018/4018M/4018+ 8-channel Analog Input Modules
ADAM-4017/4018 8-channel Analog Input Module
The ADAM-4017/4018 is a 16-bit, 8-channel analog input module
that provides programmable input ranges on all channels. This module
is an extremely cost-effective solution for industrial measurement and
monitoring applications. Its opto-isolated inputs provide 3000 V
DC
of
isolation between the analog input and the module, and protect the
module and peripherals from damaging due to high input-line voltages.
The ADAM-4017/4018 offers signal conditioning, A/D conversion,
ranging and RS-485 digital communication functions. The module
protects your equipment from power surges at the ground terminal by
providing opto-isolation of A/D input and up to 3000 V
DC
transformer
based isolation.
The ADAM-4017/4018 uses a 16-bit microprocessor-controlled
sigma-delta A/D converter to convert sensor voltage or current into
digital data. The digital data are then translated into engineering units.
When prompted by the host computer, the module sends the data to the
host through a standard RS-485 interface.
ADAM-4018M 8-channel Analog Input Data logger
The ADAM-4018M is a 16-bit, 8-channel analog input data logger
featuring programmable input ranges on all channels. This reliable and
easy to use analog input logger can store up to 38,000 measurements
for a maximum duration of 20 years.
The ADAM-4018M can accept various analog inputs such as
thermocouple, mV, V and mA. It also offers three configurable logging
modes, standard log, event log, and mixed log. Optically isolated inputs
provide 3000 V
DC
of isolation between the module and the analog input,
and protect the module and peripherals from damaging due to high
voltages on the input lines.
The ADAM-4018M is an extremely cost-effective solution for
industrial measurement and monitoring applications.
