4-20mA Sensors

Theory of Operation

Industry standard 4-20mA sensors can be used with the EA800. However, it is important to verify that this type of

sensor will operate properly over the entire output range.

Figure 6 shows an example of the loop circuit for a 4-20mA sensor whose minimum operating voltage is 8V or less

when connected to an EA800 base unit that is powered with 12VDC.

Figure 7 shows an example of the loop circuit for a 4-20mA sensor whose minimum operating voltage is greater

than 8V when connected to an EA800 base unit that is powered with 12VDC.
