Description
The APD 4152 accepts a thermistor temperature input and
provides an optically isolated and linearized DC voltage or
current output.
max. ripple
RMS
The sensor type, temperature range and output range are field
configurable. The input type is set with switches and its range
is configured using front buttons, a multimeter and an input
simulator. This provides a versatile solution that works with all
commonly available thermistor sensors.
Microprocessor-based linearization uses 41 to 55 segments or
up to a 14th order polynomial depending on the sensor type.
The input is sampled, digitally converted to a linearized tem-
perature signal and then passed through an optocoupler to the
output stage.
Full 3-way isolation (input, output, power) make this module
useful for ground loop elimination, common mode signal rejec-
tion, and noise pickup reduction.
The low noise 18 bit analog output is isolated and can be set up
for common voltage and milliamp output types.

Output Sink/Source Versatility
Standard on the APD 4152 is a 20 VDC loop excitation supply
for the milliamp output. The output can be selectively wired for
sinking or sourcing allowing use with a powered or unpowered
milliamp device.
LoopTracker
An API exclusive feature includes a green LoopTracker LED that
varies in intensity with changes in the process input signal.
It provides a quick visual picture of your process input at all
times and can greatly aid in saving time during initial startup
and troubleshooting.
Output Test
An API exclusive feature includes an output test switch to
provide a fixed output (independent of the input) when pressed.
The output test greatly aids in saving time during initial startup
and/or troubleshooting.
The test output level is adjustable from 0 to 100% of the
output span.
