Meggitt Vibro-Meter IPC707 Signal Conditioner

Signal conditioner for use with accelerometers (CA) and dynamic pressure sensors (CP).The IPC707 signal conditioner is a high-quality, high-reliability charge-converter for use with piezoelectric sensors: CA accelerometers and CP dynamic pressure sensors.The IPC707 is highly configurable (transfer function with optional integration, transfer sensitivity, high-pass and low-pass filtering, and optional diagnostic circuitry), and provides either a current output or a voltage output. It is compatible with different piezoelectric materials and replaces the previous versions of the IPC704 signal conditioner (PNR 244-704-000-xxx).The IPC707 is designed and built for long-term use in environments characterised by hazardous areas (potentially explosive atmospheres). It is also designed for use in safety-related applications (functional safety contexts/systems) such as SIL 2 in accordance with IEC 61508 and PL c Cat 1 in accordance with ISO 13849-1.Note: The IPC707 signal conditioner is a form, fit and functionally equivalent replacement (fully backward compatible) for the IPC704 signal conditioner and earlier IPCxxx signal conditioners, that matches or betters the outstanding measurement specifications of the IPC704. The IPC707 also adds a number of significant improvements, including:New filters as per ISO 2954, independent of transfer gain and input impedanceNew grounding concept for improved frame-voltage immunitySmaller output impedance for voltage output signal transmission over longer distancesOptional diagnostic circuitry (that is, built-in test equipment (BITE)) providing continuous feedback on the health of the measurement chain (sensor, cabling and the signal conditioner itself)Suitable for use in functional safety contexts: SIL 2 in accordance with IEC 61508 and PL c Cat 1 in accordance with ISO 13849.New DIN-rail mounting adaptor and removable screw-terminal connectors for easier installation.FeaturesSignal conditioning for CA accelerometers and CP dynamic pressure sensorsVery wide frequency range (0.5 to 20000 Hz) with configurable high-pass and low-pass filters, independent of transfer functionConfigurable transfer function (sensitivity and units), with optional integrator to provide a velocity outputCurrent output for signal transmission over long distances or voltage output for signal transmission over medium distancesCertified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and/or safety-related applications PARAMETER VALUE (IMPERIAL | METRIC) Output type Current (2-wire) or voltage (3-wire) Measurement system CA vibration or CP dynamic pressure Sensor CA accelerometers or CP dynamic pressure sensors Sensitivity See transfer function characteristics in data sheet Frequency range 0.5 to 20000 Hz Linearity <0.2% Operating temperature range ?40 to 185 °F | ?40 to 85 °C Protection rating IP40 Hazardous area certifications Ex ia, AEx ia, Ex ec, AEx ec, Ex nA
