Model DS1200-AMT-Ex Model DS1200-AMT-Ex Normal Opera Analogue 4-20mA Mode (3-wire) In normal opera on, the transmi er will produce a 4-20mA signal, which is propor onal to the level of moisture in the gas being monitored. The moisture reading is sampled and up dated once per second. The Model AMT-Ex has 3020 nct steps over the 4 to 20mA range corresponding to a resolu on of 0.005mA.
