Product Description

The part number 3AI961. 6 is associated with an analog input module produced by B&R Industrial Automation, designed for use in a wide array of industrial automation applications. This module provides six channels of Analogue Inputs where each channel can be set to accept both Voltage and Current inputs; it makes this module easy to use with different types of sensors like thermocouples, RTDs, etc.

Besides it accepts multiple voltage inputs such as 0-10V, 0-5V, ~10V, ~5V, and current inputs 4-20 mA and 0-20 mA. Featuring a 16-bit A/D converter the 3AI961. 6 guarantees the high resolution of the data obtained to enable accurate measurements and control common in industries. The galvanic isolation between channels and the ground is also carried out at the module level to increase the safety and robustness of the signals. A fast-sampling rate allows for acquiring data in real-time which is important for dynamic industrial processes. They have incorporated the module in such a way that it can simultaneously interface with the remaining sheets in the autobus of B&R System 2003 easily. It comes with a snap-on mounting on the miniature DIN rails that make the installation work quite easy and also the space used is fairly small. Functioning in the environment of -20 degrees C to +60 degrees C the 3AI961. 6 is made out of materials that will be capable of enduring the tough environment in industrial use.

This analog input module is not only expandable where more modules can be added to it, but also reconfigurable by the configuration software, thus can be modified to suit specific application needs. Mainly it is employed in automation systems for supervising and regulating procedures in manufacturing, chemical process, and energy management concerns; thus, it is an essential factor in the improvement of productivity and dependability in industrial applications. The product is available at Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty period.
