Product Description

The MCPEA4-1 from B&R Automation's MCP series is a state-of-the-art Analog Input module that can handle high-precision signal conditioning. It has four input channels that can accept signals of 0 to 10 V nominal level with a maximum input signal deviation of -0. 3 V to +13 V, which allows for flexibility in the range of sensor outputs seen in many applications.

The module has a 10-bit input resolution to provide accurate signal conversion and it takes about 10 milliseconds to process each channel, making it suitable for real-time applications. The input current is very low, being less than 250 nanoamps, which ensures that the module does not consume a lot of power and does not interfere with other circuits. The MCPEA4-1 has a high level of precision with a basic accuracy of ~0. 3% at 20 degrees C. It has a very stable output with an offset drift of ~0. 0025% per degrees C and the gain drift is ~0. 025% per degrees C, which guarantees that the system will function properly in the designated temperature range. The linear power of the module is 0. 2%, which shows that the system is capable of generating outputs that reflect the input signals correctly. For operational integration, the module employs the AINA Standard Function Block that facilitates software coding and system configuration. The input signal and the converter value have a linear relationship wherein the input voltage range of 0-10 V corresponds to the output range of 0-1023, allowing for easy data interpretation.

Intended to work in conjunction with the Base Unit C (CP32), the MCPEA4-1 is a reliable solution for systems that need to provide accurate and stable management of analog inputs. This module is ideal for multi-tasking automation tasks that require precise and elaborate signal processing. The product is available at Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty period.
