signal conditioner

A signal conditioner is a signal conditioning device used between a signal source and a reading device, such as an attenuator, a preamplifier, a charge amplifier, and a level shifting device for nonlinear compensation of a sensor or amplifier.

The main purpose of signal conditioner is to ensure that the signal is suitable for further processing, transmission or conversion by other equipment or systems ... Signal conditioner is widely used in industrial automation, process control, data acquisition system, scientific research and those that need accuracy and reliability. ...

Signal conditioners play a vital role in industrial automation. They can not only optimize the signal quality, but also improve the reliability and efficiency of the system. Through signal conversion, amplification, isolation, filtering, linearization and other functions, the signal regulator ensures the accurate transmission and processing of sensor data, providing solid technical support for industrial production.

Signal conversion: The signal regulator can convert nonstandard signals (such as thermocouple, RTD, millivolt, resistance, frequency, current or voltage, etc.) output by the sensor into standard industrial signals (such as 4-20mA, 0-10V, 0-5V, etc.) for compatibility with the control system. This conversion function enables different types of sensors to be seamlessly integrated into the automation system.

Signal amplification: The signals output by many sensors are very weak and easily disturbed by noise. The signal conditioner can amplify these weak signals to a level suitable for further processing through an amplifier. For example, instrumentation amplifier has high input impedance, high gain and common-mode rejection ratio, which can effectively improve the signal-to-noise ratio.

Signal attenuation: When the signal voltage output by the sensor exceeds the dynamic range of the data acquisition system, the signal regulator can reduce the signal amplitude through the attenuator to make it within the range of ADC. This is especially important for measuring high voltage signals (such as over 10V).

Signal linearization: there is a nonlinear relationship between the output signal of some sensors (such as thermocouples) and physical measurement. The signal conditioner can convert these nonlinear signals into linear outputs through linearization function, thus improving the accuracy of measurement.

Signal isolation: The signal regulator isolates the input signal from the output signal through electrical isolation (such as transformer coupling) to prevent the grounding loop, noise and transient voltage from affecting the control system. This isolation function not only improves the stability of the system, but also protects sensitive equipment (such as PLC) from interference.

Signal filtering: The signal conditioner can use low-pass filters or other types of filters to remove high-frequency noise and retain effective signal components. Digital filter can flexibly adjust the filter parameters to adapt to different application scenarios.

Signal splitting: In some industrial applications, it is necessary to split a signal into multiple outputs for use by multiple devices. Signal conditioner can realize this function through splitter, thus saving I/O resources and reducing costs.

Excitation function: For some sensors (such as strain gauges), the signal regulator can provide external excitation voltage or current to ensure the normal operation of the sensor. For example, a voltage excitation source is usually used in a Wheatstone bridge configuration.

Limit alarm: The signal regulator can set the upper and lower limit values. When the process signal exceeds the set range, it will output an alarm signal (such as relay contact) to remind the operator of the abnormal situation.

Mathematical operations: Some advanced signal conditioners support basic mathematical operations (such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, square root, average value, etc.) to realize more complex signal processing functions.

Digital interface: Modern signal conditioners usually support digital interfaces (such as RS-232, RS-485, Ethernet, etc.) to transmit sensor data to remote control systems or cloud platforms. This digital interface not only improves the reliability of data transmission, but also supports remote monitoring and maintenance.

Power management: Signal conditioner usually has built-in power management function, which can provide stable excitation voltage for the sensor and protect the control system from power fluctuation through power isolation.

Environmental adaptability: Signal conditioners in industrial environments usually have good anti-interference ability and can operate stably in harsh environments such as high noise, high humidity and high temperature. For example, the WAGO 857-800 signal conditioner supports a variety of sensor connection methods, and has the function of sensor disconnection/short circuit detection.

Modular design: Many industrial signal conditioners adopt modular design, allowing users to choose different input/output types and functions according to their needs. For example, series 931 signal conditioners are available in various models to meet different signal isolation, conversion and amplification requirements.

Intelligent function: With the development of Industry 4.0, the signal regulator is developing towards intelligence. Some advanced signal conditioners support edge calculation, remote monitoring and predictive maintenance, and can process data in real time and provide early warning.
