INNOVATION IN MOTION

The new Penny+ Giles model SSC is a Sensor Signal Conditioning unit housed in an IP68 protected metal enclosure. It is suitable for use with any sensor that produces a dc output signal voltage in the range 0 - 5Vdc. The SSC also provides a 5Vdc source that may be used as a supply for many types of sensor, including potentiometers, contactless position transducers, tilt sensors, industrial pressure transducers and industrial load cells.

Choice of outputs

The SSC converts the sensor output voltage signal to a 4 - 20mA (or optional 5 19mA) current output, or by using additional module cards, into a variety of different voltage formats or a digital PWM output. Model SSC normally operate from an unregulated 10 - 30Vdc supply. Where lowest noise performance is required with the optional voltage module card, a negative supply in the range -10 to -30Vdc may also be employed.

Simple installation

The SSC housing is designed to be mounted on a bulkhead close to the sensor, by using M5 screws through the mounting holes that are located under the housing lid. The supply, output and sensor connections are routed through two IP38 rated industrial cable glands that can accommodate cable diameters of between 3 and 8mm. Connections are made to a screw terminal block on the SSC board.

User adjustment

The SSC module has the following user-enabled features that allow flexible set-up to suit a variety of applications:

Rugged protection in hostile conditions

The SSC module is housed in a rugged die-cast aluminium alloy housing, suitable for harsh environmental conditions and electrically noisy installations, with EMC Immunity to 100V/m. The housing features an impressive environmental performance, with dust and fluid protection to HP>8 and submersion to 2m.
