Advantech releases ADAM Analog Input Modules
(Cincinnati, Ohio – 3/26/08) – Advantech introduces two new ADAM analog input modules, the ADAM-5017P and ADAM-5018P. The ADAM-5017P has eight different independent configuration channels, supports power reverse, and also has a wide uni-polar or bi-polar input range. The ADAM-5018P is a Thermocouple Input Module which supports seven input ranges and types (J,K,T,E,R,S,B), and will filter functions to remove any unreasonable range.

Both will support the High Common Mode function, which means channel-to-channel differential voltages can be up to 200 VDC. Now even more measurements, such as battery or power transducer/transmitter measurements can be achieved with this new design. Furthermore, they have over-voltage protection to avoid ranges ±60 VDC that protects the modules from power surges. Also, there is built-in TVS/ESD protection to protect the high-density, miniaturization, and complex equipment. TVS diodes avoid ESD and protect the electronic components. The ADAM-5017P and ADAM-5018P are both ADAM-5550 series expansion modules which are supported by the ADAM.Net Utility.

In the Facility and Machine Automation market, these modules can withstand harsh requirements and provide ideal and cost-effective options. The ADAM-5017P and ADAM-5018P modules are now available to the market. To purchase or if you have any questions, please contact Advantech at 1-800-205-7940 or your regional Advantech authorized dealer for more information.
