Bachmann Analog Input/Output Modules Versatile, robust and highly compact

With their metal housing, the analog input and output modules of the M100 series

are highly compact, extremely robust and packed with functions.

The M100 hardware design minimizes failures caused by operating conditions

and guarantees high-efficiency operational performance over the long run.

The cost and performance optimized design of complex automation solutions

involves a large number of different sensor and actuator types.

The standard 10 V and 4 mA to 20 mA interfaces are often not sufficient to

achieve demanding objectives. With the universal talent UIO106. a single

module type covers all common analog and digital signals for inputs and outputs

that can be configured individually for each channel. The extensive versatility of

the module is rounded off by a wide range of additional functions such as

counters, encoders or pulse width modulation.

Temperature measurements represent the largest group of analog interfaces in

industrial automation. All the more reason why technical perfection and

cost-effectiveness are important requirements here. Both requirements are perfectly

covered by the AIO112 modules. Up to 12 Pt100/Pt1000 sensors can be

cost-effectively connected to a single module using a 2 wire connection technology.

If not all channels are required for temperature measurement, up to 6 channels can

be used as current outputs.

The range of the AIO104/I module type extends from current loops, high-impedance

voltage measuring ranges, temperature measurement via Pt100/Pt1000 sensor in 2-,

3- and 4-wire technology, as well as thermo-couples and free configurable resistance

measurement. The module offers the advantages of an extremely versatile multi-signal

type analog input/output module combined with channel-wise galvanic isolation.

The integrated measuring range and measured value monitoring enable both sensor

circuit faults as well as process alarms to be implemented easily.

The AIM112 module type is particularly useful when a large number of different interfaces

requires a correspondingly large variety of types of acquisition modules. Up to 12 analog

inputs can be individually configured to the desired signal type. Alternatively, channel types

for all industrially relevant thermocouples including integrated characteristic linearization

are available for measuring very wide temperature ranges.
