Analog Input Modules
Analog input modules use an A/D converter to convert sensor voltage, current, ther-
mocouple or RTD signals into digital data. The analog input modules protect your
equipment from ground loops and power surges by providing opto-isolation of the A/
D input and transformer based isolation up to 2,500 VDC.

APAX-5013 8-ch RTD Module
The APAX-5013 is a 16-bit, 8-channel RTD input module that features programmable input
ranges on all channels. This module is an extremely cost-effective solution for industrial mea-
surement and monitoring applications. Its opto-isolated inputs provide 2,500 VDC of isolation
between the analog input and the module, protecting the module and peripherals from dam-
age due to high input line voltage.
