Current, voltage and frequency converter

December 2017 Sensors & Transducers

Parker Hannifin has introduced the SCMA-VADC-710 current, voltage and frequency converter. This manageable device is switched between SensoControl measuring instruments such as The Parker Service Master Plus or The Serviceman Plus and hydraulic installations or motors and pumps, in order to capture the switching status of these components.

Furthermore, third-party sensors, for measuring parameters such as torque, force or stroke, may be connected via the converter, to SensoControl measuring instruments. The unit is equipped with galvanic isolation meaning that several converters can be connected to one hand-held measuring instrument. Short circuits are not possible. The converter also possesses CAN and analog outputs and is therefore compatible with the latest generation of SensoControl hand-held measuring instruments.
