Product Overview
AO801 from Oiltech Controls is an 8-channel unipolar analog output module for 0…20 mA and 4…20 mA signals. It performs cyclic self-diagnostics and sets outputs to a safe state upon error detection. The module is short-circuit proof to ZP or +24 V, with detachable connectors for process and power wiring.
Key Features & Benefits
- 8 channels – 0…20 mA or 4…20 mA, unipolar single-ended
- OSP – sets outputs to a predefined safe state on fault
- Short-circuit secured to ZP or +24 V
- Detachable connectors for fast wiring and maintenance
- Groupwise isolated from ground for noise immunity
- 12-bit resolution with 0.1 % accuracy
- Rise time 10 µs, update cycle 1 ms
