The ADAM-4017/4018 is a 16-bit,8-channel analog b module that provides programmable b ranges on all channels. This module is an extremely cost-effective solution for industrial measurement and monitoring applications. Its opto-isolated bs provide 3000 V DC of isolation between the analog b and the module, protecting the module and peripherals from damage due to high b voltages. ADAM-4017/4018 offers signal conditioning, A/D conversion, ranging and RS-485 digital communication functions. The module protects your equipment from ground loops and power surges by providing opto-isolation of A/D b and transber based isolation up to 3000 V DC . The ADAM-4017/4018 uses a 16-bit microprocessor-controlled sigma-delta A/D converter to convert sensor voltage or current into digital data. The digital data is then translated into engineering units. When bed by the host computer, the module sends the data to the host through a standard RS-485 interface.
