Controls and Instrumentation Non-Isolated Square Root Extractor
NRTL/C
Function:
The NTC-XX-SIN is a microprocessor controlled
Square Root Extractor. It has an adjustable drop out
setting which defines the lower limit of the output at
which the square root extraction ceases. This feature
is important especially in environments where signals
are noisy since low input signals produce large results
after the square root function. For example, an input of
1% translates into an output of 10%. Therefore, if the
input fluctuates by approximately 1% in the lower (4-5
mA) region, the output may vary by more than 10%. By
setting the drop out to a few percent above 10% output,
the actual output will remain at 4 mA untill the true
output rises above the drop out setting.
Standard Features:
DIN-Rail Mount (small Size)
Industry Standard Inputs: 4-20 mA, 1-5 VDC, and
more (see back)
Industry Standard Output: 4-20 mA, 1-5 VDC, more
(see back)
Drop Out Setting for Lower Limit Input
Easy Field Calibration (Typ. calibration time < 2 min.
using handheld meter only)
Microprocessor Controlled for High Accuracy
Two Wire Supply for Two Wire Transmitters
Power: 24 VDC
High Noise Rejection
CSA and NRTL Approved
Calibration:
A multi-turn potentiometers is used to adjust the drop
out setting for the input. The drop out can be in the
range of 0-50% and can be read with a voltmeter at the
test point. The test point shows a voltage of 0-5 VDC
for a drop out setting of 0-50% .
Specifications:
Accuracy/Linearity:+/- 0.3% max., +/- 0.1% typ.
(@ 20-100% Output)
Operating Temperature: -40 Deg.C. to +50 Deg.C.
Temperature Effects: +/-0.5% max., +/-0.2% typ.
(for 40 Deg.C. change)
