DI-8B36 Potentiometer Input Modules

0 to 10kΩ Input Range
DI-8B Industrial Signal Conditioning Data Acquisition Module

View the DI-8B Module Selection Guide

DI-8B modules are an optimal solution for monitoring real-world process signals and providing high level signals to a data acquisition system. Each DI-8B36 module isolates, filters and amplifies a single channel of potentiometer input and provides an analog voltage output.

Excitation for the potentiometer is provided by using two matched current sources. When using a 3-wire connection, this method allows equal currents to flow through the sensor leads, cancelling the effects of lead resistances. The excitation currents are small (0.25mA) which minimizes the self-heating of the potentiometer.

Signal filtering is accomplished with a three-pole filter optimized for time and frequency response which provides 70dB of normal-mode-rejection at 60Hz. One pole of this filter is on the field side of the isolation barrier for anti-aliasing, and the other two are on the system side.

A special input circuit on the DI-8B36 module provides protection against accidental connection of power-line voltages up to 240VAC. Clamp circuits on the I/O and power terminals protect against harmful transients.

The modules are designed for installation in Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations and have a high level of immunity to environmental noise.
