IFMA signal converter: frequency / analog signal
device to transform a frequency (input signal) into an analog normalized signal (output signal to choose:  0 ... 5 V, 0 ... 10 V, 0 ... 20 mA o 4 ... 20 mA) 

The IFMA signal converter measures frequency / analog signals and processes and transforms an input frequency from 0 ... 1 Hz to 0 ... 25 kHz into an analog signal.  The IFMA signal converter can be easily programmed and controlled by means of a 7-terminal DIP switch, a round BCD switch, a sensing device and two LED. The IFMA signal converter is simply slid in a C-rail or on mounting rails. There are two versions of the IFMA signal converter:
 - IFMA - 1 signal converter (  9 ...  32 VDC)
 - IFMA - 2 signal converter (85 ... 250 VAC)

This link shows an overview of all the signal converters we have available to meet your needs.

 - transforms an input frequency range into an
   analog signal
 - Adjustable frequency range from  0 ... 1 Hz
   to  0 ... 25 kHz
 - Input and output LED, INFO 
 - four output ranges: 0 ... 5 V, 0 ... 10 V,
   0 ... 20 mA, 4 ... 20 mA
 - all sensors are adapted with the DIP switch.
 - AC or DC power supply
 - power supply / input / output with triple galvanic
   insulation
 - C-rail or mounting rails.

All standard sensors (PNP, NPN, permanent magnet, relay, CMOS or TTL) can be adapted through the three DIP switches.
PNP: resistance of 1 kOhm pull down, max. 12 mA for 12 V
NPN: resistance 3,9 kOhm pull up, max. 3 mA.
low hysteresis range: V = 0,25 V; V = 0,75 V
high hysteresis range: V = 2,5 V; V = 3,0 V
maximum V input: +/- 90 V; max. 2,75 mA (DIP switch1 and 3 in OFF)

Voltage: 0 ... 10 VDC o 0 ... 5 VDC / 10 mA, Current: 0 ... 20 mA o 4 ... 20 mA
Load: 500 Ohm for10 VDC

0 ... 1 Hz to 0 ... 25 kHz adjustable introducing a signal or with BCD switch.
