Description
The cFP-PWM-520 is a digital output module designed specifically for the Compact FieldPoint automation platform. This module, bearing the part number 777318-520, is engineered to facilitate the control of DC-powered instruments by modulating their duty cycle for analog control purposes. It excels in various applications including the control of DC servo motor speed, adjustment of industrial heater heat output, and modulation of light bulb intensity.
One of the key features of the cFP-PWM-520 is its optical bank isolation, boasting a 2,300 VRMS breakdown isolation. However, it’s important to note that there is no channel-to-channel isolation, which may influence how it is implemented in certain systems. The module offers 8 PWM sourcing output channels, with an output frequency that can reach up to 1 kHz and a duty cycle range from 0 to 100%. This flexibility makes it a versatile choice for various control scenarios.
Additionally, the cFP-PWM-520 is equipped with on/off LED indicators for easy monitoring of its status and includes short-circuit protection for its outputs, enhancing its reliability and durability in challenging industrial environments. Its compact physical dimensions, 5.00 x 2.60 x 0.94 inches, and a weight of just 3.9 oz, allow for easy integration into a wide range of systems without requiring significant space. Finally, it is designed to operate over a wide temperature range from –40 to 70 °C, ensuring reliable performance under extreme conditions.
