Overview
Precision current sensor, measures current between 0 and 22.5mA
Can read IEC 60381-1 Type 2 and Type 3 sensors (unit signal)
High accuracy (0.15%), resolution (up to 0,172µA) and sampling rate (up to 240 PLCs)
It is possible to detect whether a sensor is connected/defective
Description
With the Industrial Dual 0-20mA Bricklet 2.0, you can measure Bricks currents from 0 to 22.5mA.
The Bricklet can be used to read out up to two IEC 60381-1 type 2 and type 3 sensors.
The measured current can be read out in Na. In addition, events can be configured that are triggered when a certain current value is exceeded or fallen below.
The Bricklet has no galvanic separation to the Tinkerforge system. This means that there is a direct electrical connection between the terminals of the Bricklet and the rest of the system. If this leads to unwanted connections, ground loops or short-circuits in the respective application, the use together with an insulator Bricklet is advisable.
The Industrial Dual 0-20mA Bricklet 2.0 has a 7-pin Bricklet plug and is connected with a 7p-10p Bricklet cable with a brick.
