Intended use
The Type 6132 p/i Converter converts a pneumatic signal into a standardized electric signal.
It is especially used as an intermediate element between pneumatic and electric control and
measuring equipment.
The input variable is a pneumatic signal and the output variable an electric DC current signal
or DC voltage signal. The pneumatic input signal from 0.2 to 1 bar is converted into an elec-
tric DC signal from 0/4 to 20 mA or a DC voltage signal from 0/2 to 10 V.
The device is designed to operate under exactly defined conditions. Therefore, operators
must ensure that the device is only used in applications where the operating conditions corre-
spond to the technical data. In case operators intend to use the device in other applications
