Model IRMA Intelligent RTD Module with Analog Output
Brand: Red Lion ControlsThe IRMA accepts a 2, 3, or 4-Wire RTD or resistance input and converts it into a 4-20 mA current output.
The 4 to 20 mA output is linearly proportional to the temperature or the resistance input. This output is ideal for interfacing to indicators, chart recorders, controllers, or other instrumentation equipment.
The IRMA is loop-powered which means that the same two wires are carrying both the power and the output signal.
The unit controls the output current draw from 4-20 mA in direct proportion to the input while consuming less than 4 mA for operation.
The conversion to a current output signal makes the IRMA less susceptible to noise interference and allows accurate transmission over long distances.
Two-way isolation allows the use of grounded RTD’s which can provide additional noise reduction benefits.
