Model Number | FC – TSAI – 1620M |
Brand | HONEYWELL |
Type | 16 – channel Analog Input Module |
Input Voltage Range | Accommodates a wide range including 0 – 10 VDC, which is commonly used for sensors with relatively low – voltage outputs; 4 – 20 mA, a standard current loop for transmitting analog signals over longer distances with better noise immunity; – 10 V to 10 V for sensors that measure both positive and negative values; and – 20 mA to 20 mA for applications requiring a wider dynamic range of current – based signals |
Input Impedance | A high input impedance of 10 MΩ ensures minimal loading on the connected sensors. This means that the module can accurately measure the analog signals without significantly affecting the sensor’s output, leading to more precise data acquisition |
Accuracy | With an accuracy of ±0.1%, the FC – TSAI – 1620M provides highly reliable data. In industrial applications where even a small error in measurement can have significant consequences, such as in pharmaceutical manufacturing where precise temperature and pressure control are essential for drug quality, this high accuracy is of utmost importance |
Linearity | The module boasts a linearity of ±0.05%, which ensures that the relationship between the input analog signal and the output digital value is consistent. This linear behavior is crucial for accurate calibration and the proper functioning of control algorithms that rely on the input data |
Operating Temperature Range | It can operate in a temperature range from – 20°C to 60°C. This wide temperature tolerance makes it suitable for use in various industrial environments, including those with extreme temperatures, such as outdoor oil and gas installations in cold regions or hot and humid manufacturing facilities |
Storage Temperature Range | The storage temperature range of – 40°C to 85°C allows for safe storage of the module under different environmental conditions. This is beneficial for companies that may store spare modules for future use or during periods of equipment upgrades |
Humidity | The module can withstand humidity levels of 0 to 95% RH, non – condensing. This makes it resilient to moisture in the air, which is common in industrial settings like chemical plants or food processing facilities, where high humidity levels can affect the performance of electronic components |
Number of Channels | Equipped with 16 channels, the FC – TSAI – 1620M can interface with a large number of sensors simultaneously. This reduces the need for multiple input modules, simplifies the system design, and improves the overall efficiency of data acquisition in industrial control systems |
Communication Interface | Designed to interface seamlessly with common industrial control system buses, the module enables smooth data transfer to the control system. Whether it’s a high – speed Ethernet – based bus for fast – paced industrial processes or a more traditional serial communication bus for legacy systems, the FC – TSAI – 1620M can adapt to different communication requirements |
Mounting | Its compact design is optimized for easy integration into standard industrial control cabinets. This allows for efficient use of space in control rooms, where multiple modules and components need to be installed in a limited area |
