Fieldbus to Current Converter

Source: Smar International Corp
The FI302 converter from Smar International converts a fieldbus signal into a 4 to 20 mA signal

Now exhibiting at the Texas A&M Instrumentation Symposium

The FI302 converter from Smar International converts a fieldbus signal into a 4 to 20 mA signal. The fieldbus signal can, for example, be a request from the bus to a frequency converter to set a conveyor speed to 3.4 feet per second. If the frequency converter does not have fieldbus capability, the bus signal can be converted into a conventional 4 to 20 mA by the FI302.

This instrument has three independent channels, which means that three 4 to 20 mA outputs are available. The FI302 incorporates PID control, linearization, damping, local display, local adjustment and master capability. It features open loop detection. Configuration is achieved by local adjustment or via fieldbus communication.
