Z170REG Signal Splitter Converter & Isolator from Ucontrol Pty Ltd in Australia
If a versatile solution is required for your signal conditioning application, look no further than the Z170REG signal splitter or signal duplicator from Ucontrol Pty Ltd in Australia. Ucontrol are a specialist in signal conditioning products automation and control instrumentation. Z170REG is a leading edge device with unrivalled flexibility which is simple to set up. It is manufactured in Europe by a manufacturer with pedigree for innovation and reliability. The Z170REG signal splitter has a universal programmable input for numerous signal inputs including 0-10 K ohms resistance, NTC thermistor, thermocouple type K,R,S,T,E,B, J, RTD sensors NI100, PT1000, PT100, 4-20 mA current which can source or sink, voltage 0-10Volts, potentiometer & linear mV ranges etc. The 2 outputs can be programmed independently of each other and either 0-10 Volt or 4-20 mA, again source or sink (active or passive). The external power supply requirement is a wide ranging 10-40 VDC or 18 - 28 VAC and there is a 18VDC transmitter power supply available for 2 wire 4-20 mA loop powered transmitters.
The Z170REG signal splitter is a pioneering product as far as universal DIN rail signal conditioners go. Besides splitting of signals the Z170REG and providing 4 ways galvanic optical isolation to 1.5kV, it is cost effective to use the Z170REG as a standard signal converter or 4-20 mA signal isolator. The Z170REG is a compact 17.5mm width mounting on a standard EN 50022 DIN 35 mm top hat DIN rail. There is only one model number for all inputs which is great for engineers and users alike so only one spare model number to stock. The inputs and outputs can be programmed by the user via on board dip switches, dip switch configuration is possible for most standard ranges, it is a very quick method and handy if PC access is not available. Or configuration can be managed via a PC using the EASY 1.8 programme software. EASY 1.8 software is aptly named and allows very simple configuration of the Z170REG by wizard based prompts there are no special interface cables just a standard 3.5mm stereo jack plug to D9 serial lead via RS232 or USB to RS232. The EASY 1.8 software also has live analysis tools to measure and display on the PC screen the input signal and manually drive the 4-20 mA or 0-10V outputs which is fantastic for testing and commissioning. EASY 1.8 can be downloaded free of charge and experimented prior to purchase please contact us for details.
