BCD/mA CONVERTER BCD/mA - AK100 MODEL

The BCD/mA Converter is a device designed to convert BCD signals (8421) generated in the motor drive of a OLTC, representative of its position, into a DC current signal.

Typically, the BCD signal used in this application features positive voltage values. For instance, the high and low levels may be +24V and 0V, respectively. An electronic circuit reads the binary BCD levels and generates a current output proportional to the decimal input, for instance 4-20 mA.

Special converters can have BCD inputs triggered at direct voltages from 10 to 300 V and alternating voltages (50/60 Hz) from 10 to 300 V.
