INPUT SPECIFICATIONS

•Potentiometer: 0 – 50 Ω through 10 kΩ
If not specified, the input range is 1500 Ω.
Minimum span:
(Range) 0 – 50 Ω : 2.5 Ω
0 – 150 Ω : 5 Ω
0 – 300 Ω : 5 Ω
0 – 500 Ω : 5 Ω
0 – 1500 Ω : 150 Ω
0 – 10 kΩ : 1000 Ω
Reference voltage: 2.5 V (2.5 kΩ connected in serial)
Reference resistance: 2.5 kΩ
Excitation voltage:
2.5 × Connected Resistance ÷ (Connected Resistance + 2500) [V]
[Example] Resistance = 1000 Ω
2.5 × 1000 ÷ (1000 + 2500) = 0.7 [V]

PERFORMANCE

Overall accuracy: Input accuracy + output accuracy
Inversely proportional to the span. Except the accuracy of input resistor.
See CALCULATION EXAMPLES OF OVERALL ACURACY.
• Input accuracy: (% of range)
0 – 50 Ω : ±0.02 %
0 – 150 Ω : ±0.02 %
0 – 300 Ω : ±0.01 %
0 – 500 Ω : ±0.01 %
0 – 1500 Ω : ±0.01 %
0 – 10 kΩ : ±0.01 %
• Output accuracy: ±0.04 % of max. output range
Temp. coefficient: ±0.015 %/°C (±0.008 %/°F) of max. span
Response time: ≤ 1 sec. (0 – 90 %)
Burnout response time: ≤ 1 sec.
Line voltage effect: ±0.1 % over voltage range
Insulation resistance: ≥ 100 MΩ with 500 V DC
Dielectric strength: 2000 V AC @1 minute  (input to output to power to ground)

CALCULATION EXAMPLES OF OVERALL ACCURACY

[Example] Total Resistance 0 – 1 kΩ, Output Range 1 – 5 V
Max. Input Range (1.5 kΩ) ÷ Span (1 kΩ) × 0.01 % = 0.015 %
Max. Output Range (20 V) ÷ Span (4 V) × 0.04 % = 0.2 %
Overall accuracy = 0.015 + 0.2 = ±0.22 %
