DSCA30/31

Analog Voltage Input Signal Conditioners, Narrow Bandwidth

Description

Each DSCA30/31 voltage input module provides a single channel of analog

input which is filtered, isolated, amplified, and converted to a high level voltage

output. Signal filtering is accomplished with a five-pole filter which provides

85dB of normal-mode-rejection at 60Hz and 80dB at 50Hz. An anti-aliasing

pole is located on the field side of the isolation barrier, and the other four poles

are on the system side. After the initial field-side filtering, the input signal is

chopped by a proprietary chopper circuit. Isolation is provided by transformer

coupling, again using a proprietary technique to suppress transmission of

common mode spikes or surges.
Module output is either voltage or current. For current output models a dedicated

loop supply is provided at terminal 3 (+OUT) with loop return located at terminal

4 (-OUT). The system-side load may be either floating or grounded.
Special input circuits provide protection against accidental connection of

power-line voltages up to 240VAC and against transient events as defined by

ANSI/IEEE C37.90.1. Protection circuits are also present on the signal output

and power input terminals to guard against transient events and power reversal.

Signal and power lines are secured to the module using screw terminals which

are in pluggable terminal blocks for ease of system assembly and reconfiguration.
The modules have excellent stability over time and do not require recalibration,

however, zero and span settings are adjustable up to ±5% to accommodate

situations where fine-tuning is desired. The adjustments are made using

potentiometers located under the front panel label and are non-interactive for

ease of use.
