General Description

The DAT4235 is a high-performance universal signal converter designed for industrial signal isolation and conversion. It supports a wide range of input types—such as thermocouples, RTDs, mA, V, mV, resistance, and potentiometers—and converts them into linear 4-20mA or voltage outputs. With galvanic isolation between input, output, and power supply, and a compact 12.5 mm DIN rail mountable enclosure, the DAT4235 is ideal for space-saving installations in control panels and distributed I/O systems.

Key Features

  • Universal Input: Accepts thermocouples, RTDs (2/3/4 wire), mA, V, mV, resistance, and potentiometers.
  • Bipolar Input Capability: Handles negative input signals such as -10V or -20mA.
  • Linearized Output: Converts the input signal into linear 4-20mA or voltage output.
  • Cold Junction Compensation: Built-in compensation for thermocouple inputs with automatic linearization.
  • High Accuracy: ±0.1% of full scale with thermal drift less than 0.01%/°F (0.02%/°C).
  • Configurable Ranges: Input and output ranges can be programmed freely within specified spans; includes selectable high or low burnout.
  • PC Programmable: Easily configured using DATEXEL ProSoft software (v3.06), available for free download at www.datexel.com.
  • Full Galvanic Isolation: 1500 Vac isolation between input, output, and power supply to eliminate ground loops and improve system safety.
  • Compact DIN Rail Design: Just 12.5 mm wide, mountable on top-hat or G-type DIN rail per EN-50022 and EN-50035 standards.
  • EMC Compliant: Fully compliant with EMC Directive 89/336/CEE for electromagnetic compatibility.
  • DAT4235SEL Version: Special variant with SEL input to enable/disable the output signal remotely—useful for multiplexer setups.

The DAT4235 is engineered for flexibility and accuracy in signal conditioning applications across process control, automation, and instrumentation. Its compact size, universal input range, and strong isolation make it a valuable tool for demanding industrial environments.
