LV10/FC10 CatalogMetrolog LV10 and FC10 Signal Conditioners
Metrolog LV10 is a compact lightweight signal conditioner for LVDT sensors. Supplied integrated with a user selected LVDT sensor, LV10 conditioner gives a DC proportional output signal for direct connection with signal acquisition boards, PLCs, IHMs, external display, and other compatible devices. All necessary electronic circuits are embedded inside an aluminum casing, with a DC ±10V output (pre-calibrated to sensor's full range) and a digital zero crossing signal. LV10 plus LVDT sensor is factory calibrated and supplied ready to use.
The Metrolog FC10 conditioner if a DC-DC signal conditioner with integrated AC-DC power supply capable of generate the required LV10 symmetrical DC ±15VDC supply voltage, capable of converting symmetrical analog DC signal (±10V) to asymmetrical 0-5V and 0-10V signals, and with one relay NO/NC contacts available (activated by a zero crossing signal from LV10 or other external device).
When associated, the LV10 and FC10 conditioners allow ease interface of LVDT sensors with machines and automation equipments, without the need of DC power supplies or external additional electronic circuits.
