Mass Measurement
The ADAM 4000 Series modules from ProMicro are designed as compact and versatile sensor-to-computer interface units for reliable operation in harsh environments. Their built in microprocessors in rugged industrial grade plastic housings allow them to provide independent, intelligent signal conditioning, analog I/O, digital I/O, data display and RS485 communication.
Only two wires are required to allow ADAM modules to communicate with the controlling host computer over a multidrop RS485 network. Their ACSII-based command/response protocol ensures compatibility with most computer systems.
The modules are capable of accommodating multiple types and ranges of analog input. Both type and range can be selected remotely by issuing commands from the host computer, By using only one type of module from the ADAM-4000 range, the measurement needs of an entire plant can be accomplished.
The ADAM-4000 Series analog input modules use microprocessor-controlled high resolution, 16-bit, sigma-delta A/D converters to acquire sensor signals such as voltage, current, thermocouple or RTD. Analog data is translated into engineering units, % of FSR, two's complement or ohms. After the modules receive a request from the host, they send the data in the desired format over the RS485 network.
ADAM 4000 Series modules may be DIN rail or wall mounted and can be piggybacked to save space.
