4 Description of the converter
The converter is a universal converter designed for process monitoring and
control using one or several optek-sensors.
Fig. 1 Surface Control 4000
One optek-sensor can be connected to converters C4101, C4121 and C4151,
up to two sensors can be connected to converters C4201, C4202, C4221,
C4222, C4251 and C4252, up to three sensors to converters C4322 and C4352,
and up to four optek-sensors can be connected to the converters C4422 and
C4452. The exact number depends on the sensor.
Converters with several sensor inputs allow redundant measurements and
simultaneous monitoring of several parameters.
In measuring mode the converter processes up to four customized measuring
results as text, bar graphs or trend values.
The software features include calculation capabilities, linearization and
compensation functions for product change, ranging, zero point and hold.
Converters with mA-inputs (C4121, C4221, C4222, C4322 and C4422) feature
remote control functions for the control via an external control system.
Converters C4151, C4251, C4252, C4352 and C4452 are also equipped with a
PROFIBUS
®
PA interface and can therefore be interconnected with only one
cable and integrated into a control system.
The integrated data logger can capture vital process information for quality
assurance and plant control records. The data is easily transferred to a PC via
an RS-232 port.
Analog and digital inputs and outputs allow for comprehensive sensor
measurement as well as signal processing from other measuring devices.
Furthermore, the converter is capable of using up to four optek inline sensors
and / or probes simultaneously.
