Dent ELITEpro XC Operator's Manual page 27

The following sensor types are supported and selected through the ELOG 15 software interface.

0/4–20 mA externally powered current loop

0–30* VDC single ended, non-isolated
NOTE: The ELITEpro XC can measure input voltages up to 30.0 volts. The polarity protection circuitry
however can only withstand 15 volts of reverse-applied polarity without permanent damage to the
meter. The maximum allowable current flowing into the analog input terminal is 23 mA.
CAUTION: Ensure that the sensor current/voltage is within range and the channel is correctly
configured using ELOG 15 before connecting external sensors. Sustained exposure to elevated
signals may damage the ELITEpro XC and this will void your warranty.
CAUTION: Observe the correct signal polarity when connecting voltage sensors to the ELITEpro XC
above 10 volts. Damaging currents may flow from the connected sensor in the event of reverse
polarity or misconfiguration and this will void your warranty.
Channel types (voltage or current) should be configured using the ELOG software prior to connecting
external sensors. This sequence will prevent the unexpected/unpredictable combinations of voltage
transducers connected to low impedance loads (499 ohm) or current transducers with an open circuit.
The first set of Sensor and Output fields on the screen represent the Physical Range. This is where the
user enters the low and high process values from the sensor. This data can typically be found on the
data plate or data sheet of the sensor (typical sensor image below). The second set of Sensor and
Output fields represent the Electrical Output. This is where the user enters the minimum and maximum
electrical output values of the sensor, also listed on the data plate or data sheet.
