EICT

SIGNAL CONDITIONING MODULE

The EICT signal conditioning module has been specifically designed to operate the ICTrange of contactless linear position transducers. This module, housed in a high strength IP66 enclosure, incorporates a high performance circuit that drives the transducer and provides a choice of output signals with zero and span adjustment for simple user configuration. Maximum recommended distance between transducer and EICT module is 10m.

Special housings have been developed to provide increased immunity to EMC. The ICT transducer is supplied with a Sensor Calibration Module Card (SCMC) which is calibrated to match the transducer electrical stroke. This card must be inserted into the EICT signal conditioning unit before operation. The EICT is user configurable for input and output options.
