Signal Converter I/I or I/U

Input: 4...20 mA
Output: 0...20 mA or 0...10 V
Loop powered
Protected against incorrect connection
Accuracy better than 0.25% f.r.

Description
The 4...20 mA loop current is measured and converted into 0...20 mA
or 0...10 V, respectively, depending on the type of converter.

To minimize a possible voltage drop the converter must be located as

close to the voltage receiver as possible, whereas for current signals
large lengths of cables may be used.

The conversion is based on internal voltage and resistance references.

The signal converter can be used to convert a 4...20 mA signal into a
0...20 mA current signal or a 0...10 V voltage signal.
