PERFORMANCE

Conversion accuracy (in percentage of input range)
±0.1 % (@ input range -20 - +20 mA)
Conversion accuracy is inversely proportional to input span.
  Conversion accuracy computation example:
  When input range is 4 - 20 mA: conversion accuracy = nominal input span (40 mA) ÷ input span (16 mA) × 0.1(%) = 0.25 (%).
Nominal input span is the same as the span at input range 
-20 - +20 mA DC.
Conversion rate: 4 msec. @ 4 input
Input circuit time constant: Approx. 1 msec.
Data range: 0 – 10000 of the input range
Data allocation: 2
Module addresses in use: 2
Power output (input connector): Rated current 0.5 A DC per channel (rated current 3 A for internal fuse (slow blow fuse i2t (A2sec.) max. 5.04); Total: 1 A DC
Temp. coefficient: ±0.015 %/°C (±0.008 %/°F)
Insulation resistance: ≥ 100 MΩ with 250 V DC
Dielectric strength: 300 V AC @ 1 minute
(input to exc. supply)
1500 V AC @ 1 minute
(input or exc. supply to internal bus or internal power to ground)
