EX10SC Signal Conditioning 283
SECTION 9
EX10SC SIGNAL CONDITIONING
OVERVIEW
The EX10SC modular signal conditioning chassis is designed EX10xxA instruments. This modular
chassis allows users to add signal conditioning capabilities not currently addressed by the EX10xxA
family.
TABLE 9-1: EX10XXA FAMILY COMPATIBILITY WITH EX10SC
The EX10SC is designed to be easy-to-implement and is designed with groups of sixteen channels.
The additional signal conditioning capability comes through the use of 8B signal conditioning plug-
ins. One 8B module is provided per channel. The EX10SC is intended for users that required
channel-to-GND and channel-to-channel isolation.
Additional capabilities addressed by the EX10SC are:
Wider range of input voltages ±60 V
Isolation up to 300 V (input to ground), 1500 V rms isolation (module only)for industrial and
voltage stack measurements (i.e. solar cells and batteries)
4 mA to 20 mA current measurement loop capability
Three- and four-wire RTD measurement capability
Full-bridge strain gage/bridge measurements
Frequency measurement capability

CONNECTING POWER TO THE EX10SC
Connect mains power to the EX10SC power receptacle located at the rear of the mainframe. Prior
to powering on the EX10SC, ensure that all connections have been made, that proper grounding has
been observed, and that mains power does not exceed the power rating noted in the EX10SC General
Specifications section that follows.
