Description

The FC-33 is a DIN rail mount, selectable input / output signal conditioner

with 1500VDC isolation between input and output and1500VDC isolation

from 24 volt power and input / output. The field configurable input/output

types allow a wide ranging capability for 0 - 5V, 0 - 10V , 0 - 20mA ,

4 - 20mA .

The FC-33 has user selectable factory-calibration, but also has OFFSET

(zero) and SPAN (full scale) adjustments of the input signal.

The OFFSET (zero) has an adjustment range of 0 to 25% of full scale

input, the SPAN (full scale) has an adjustment of 80 to 102%

Application

The FC-33 field configurable isolated input/output signal conditioner is

useful in eliminating ground loops and interfacing sensors to ourPLC

analog input modules. The FC-33 has 3 way isolation, this feature solves

many types of configuration problems. For example, the signal

conditioner can be configured for sinking input andsourcing output. It

also allows signal translation from current input to voltage output or

voltage input to current output.

This feature would be useful when you have limited type and number

of channels in your system design, i.e. 8 channels of 4-20mA , 7 which

are used and one transmitter that is 0 - 10V .

LEVEL LED

This LED is a powerful tool when setting up the signal conditioner.

During normal operation the LED will blink at a proportional rate to the

selected input signal level. When performing field calibration the LED is

used for indication of the internal calibration process.

CAL - Pushbutton

Thispushbutton along with various switch settings, allows you to

calibrate the signal conditioner for your application or restore factory

default calibration.

DC Selectable Input, Isolated Signal Conditioner

FC-33Input Selection

The signal conditioner can be configured for either DC milliamps or

DC volts. Input and Output signal types are 0 - 5V, 0 - 10V, 0 - 20mA ,

4 - 20mA .

Adjustments

The FC-33 has built-in self-calibration, but also has

OFFSET (zero) and SPAN (full scale) adjustments of the

input signal. If your application requires, different

span or offset (i.e. 3.6mA offset and

adjust accordingly.

Application adjustments

Calibrating the input signal level -

1. Select the signal range (i.e. 4 - 20mA ).

2. Connect 24 volt power to the signal conditioner.

3. Connect the minimum input signal level.

4. Turn Switch2 ON, press and hold the CAL

pushbutton until the LEVEL LED comes ON steady

(approx. 3 seconds), then release immediately. If the

pushbutton is NOT released while the Level LED is ON

steady, the signal conditioner will return to factory

calibration.

5. Repeat above sequence for maximum input signal.

6. Turn Switch 2 OFF.

To return to factory calibration-

1. Turn switch2 ON, press and hold the CAL

pushbutton until the LEVEL LED comes ON steady and

then starts flashing (approx. 10 seconds), then release

the pushbutton. The unit has now been returned to

factory calibration.

2. Turn Switch2 OFF.
