DT230 series signal conditioners provide two independent I/O channels in a single, space-saving unit. The DT233 model is a dual two-wire transmitter that isolates and converts millivolt or thermocouple sensor inputs to proportional 4-20mA control signals. Power is received from the output loop current. High-voltage isolation separates all input and output circuits from each other. Isolation protects from surges, reduces noise, and helps eliminate ground loop errors. Setup and calibration are fast and easy with a convenient USB connection to your PC and Acromag’s Windows configuration software. The Android app enables setup with mobile devices. Advanced signal processing capabilities, variable range input/output, and convenient USB programming make this instrument very versatile. These transmitters can withstand harsh industrial environments and operate reliably across a wide temperature range with very low drift. They feature RFI, EMI, ESD, EFT, and surge protection plus low radiated emissions.

Performance Specifications

IMPORTANT: To prevent ground loop error between a grounded PC and a grounded input signal, Acromag strongly recommends use of a USB isolator like Acromag’s USB-Isolator when configuring a DT230 Series transmitter.
