What does a Signal Conditioner Do? / What is the Purpose of Signal Conditioning?
A signal conditioner is a device that processes an electrical signal and makes it suitable for further processing or display. The conditioner is used to optimize and transform signals to fit the user’s needs by amplifying signals, filtering out spurious noise/frequency components, isolating signals from electrical effects, and correcting signals to ensure that accurate measurements are represented, and standards are met. The resulting output signal is then ready for transmission to a process controller, recorder, or display instrumentation.
Acromag’s signal conditioners offer a rugged design and are used as essential components in industrial automation, energy management, water systems, and mining sites. They control, monitor, and support various input and output signals for reliable data transmission in demanding environments.
