Acromag, Inc. microBlox® uB Series - 2-Wire Transmitter Field Input Module with Loop Excitation uB42

Description
Field Input: 0-20mA or 4-20mA DC ranges Host Output: 0-5V, 1-5V or ±5V ranges Acromag’s microBlox™ uB Series I/O modules offer a compact, high-performance solution for interfacing sensors and field devices with data acquisition systems. uB signal conditioning modules are ideal to isolate, filter, convert and amplify a wide variety of signal types for test, measurement and control systems. Just plug uB modules into 4, 8, or 16-channel back panels in any mix for a high-density analog I/O interface. Channel-to-channel isolation provides optimal noise and surge protection from ground loops, spikes, and high common mode voltages. The uB42 model conditions and converts a DC process current field input signal from a 2-wire transmitter to a scaled 0-5V or ±5V output. It provides field excitation (12V/22 mA) for the transmitter and is useful to isolate non-isolated transmitters. This module can also interface AC current signals with the model 5020-350 toroid sensor producing a 0 to 11.17mA input. Bluetooth® wireless technology versions enable configuration using a smart phone or tablet. Acromag’s Agility™ app, available for Android™ and iOS® mobile devices, helps you vary input/ output ranges and scaling to your specific application. The Agility app can also set an alarm output function with a set point limit and deadband. Other app functions include polling inputs, trending values in a sharable chart, updating calibration, and diagnostic troubleshooting. For cost-sensitive projects, a commercial-grade version is available (-CG models). These units offer similar performance, but over a limited temperature range and lack hazloc approvals. Back panels provide power, I/O wiring terminals, and host access to an industry-standard analog signal bus. Modules are hot-swappable without screws. Data acquisition boards can access all host I/O signals on the DB25 bus connector. Agility™ Config Tool is available for free. Wide variety of input and output ranges Mixes with different I/O types on compact 4, 8, or 16 channel back panels Select fixed I/O range models or Bluetooth wireless technology user-configurable models Cost-saving commercial-grade versions available for less demanding applications Android® and iOS® apps simplify wireless configuration with a smartphone or tablet Mobile app configures I/O ranges, sets scaling, calibrates and performs diagnostics Optional alarm function with set point and deadband control driving 0/5V host output Poll and trend I/O values to sharable charts High accuracy, noise immunity, and stability Isolated field-to-host and channel-to-channel (1500Vac peak, 250Vac/354Vdc continuous) Over-molded I/O circuits offer superior shock, vibration, moisture, and dust protection. Wide operating temperature range UL/cUL Class I, Div 2, ABCD and ATEX Zone 2 hazardous location approvals
