Expanded Performance Range for Water Treatment
With the multiCELL multichannel transmitter Bürkert offers a complete, flexible system for various measuring analysis, regulation and metering tasks. The system consists of a full-featured basic unit with functions that can be individually enhanced as needed by adding modular hardware and software. The new signal input card improves the system by further increasing the number of possible applications, since it is now possible to connect almost any sensor available on the market to the microprocessor-controlled transmitter/controller. It was developed to make use of the standard signal inputs that are supported by most sensors, regardless of the manufacturer. The plug-in card features two 4-20mA signal inputs for any type of transmitter with a suitable signal output. For example, these connections can be used for transmitters for measuring pressure, level or turbidity, as well as sensors for measuring oxygen, free chlorine, ozone and other substances.
Signal input card for Bürkert multiCELL transmitter 8619
• Connections for up to four additional sensors
• Two 4-20 mA analog signal inputs for any type of transmitter
• Two NPN and PNP digital signal inputs for transmitters with frequency output
• Optional choice of all important measuring units, such as bar, mbar, pascal, psi, °C, Fahrenheit, K, m, cm, mm, ft, ppm ppb, %, l/min, l/s, m3/h, gallon/min, etc.
The card is also equipped with two digital NPN and PNP inputs for the connection of transmitters with frequency output, such as flow transmitters, for example. The Type 8619 transmitter is equipped with the new signal input card at the factory. The user just has to parameterize the inputs and select the scaling and units as needed. All standard units for pressure, temperature, flow rate and many other types of measurements are available. Optionally, a free text unit, such as "Brom ppm" can also be defined.
If needed, the multiCELL transmitter can be equipped with up to six pre-configured I/O boards, making it suitable for complex tasks. Optional software packages allow additional adaptation to individual applications. Users benefit from this customised functional range by paying only for the features actually needed. Since the multiCELL enables use of a standard transmitter type for many different applications, such as analysis measuring technology, or flow rate measurement, the costs for employee training and warehousing of different variants are also reduced.
