STANDARD SIGNAL CONDITIONERS Specifically designed for applications to provide signal and power conditioning. Paine Electronics signal conditioners are designed to typically convert one form of a electronic signal into a another and are primary used to convert signals that may be difficult to read into more easily read formats. Examples include: Amplification: When a signal is amplified, the overall magnitude of the signal is increased. Converting a 0-10mV signal to a 0 -10V signal is an example of amplification. Electrical Isolation: Provides electrical isolation between the input and output signal. There is no physical wiring between the input and output. The input is normally transferred to the output by converting it to an optical or magnetic signal then it is reconstructed on the output. By breaking the connection between input and output, unwanted signals on the input line are prevented from passing through to the output. Electrical isolation is also used to prevent ground loops. Linearization: Converting a non-linear input signal to a linear output signal. This is common for thermocouple signals. Cold Junction Compensation: Used for thermocouples. The thermocouple signal is adjusted for fluctuations in room temperature. Excitation: Many sensors require some form of excitation for them to operate. Strain gages and RTDs are two common examples. | Contact us for more information. |
