Description
Based on previous searches, the Westinghouse 5X00241G01 appears to be an Ovation Analog Input Module used within the Emerson Ovation control system (formerly Westinghouse before the 1998 divestiture). Here’s a breakdown of its potential functionalities and what you can do to find more information:
Function:
The primary function of the 5X00241G01 module is to:
- Interface with various analog sensors and transmitters that output a continuous electrical signal proportional to a physical quantity (e.g., pressure, temperature, flow rate).
- Condition and scale the analog input signal to a suitable range for processing by the Emerson Ovation control system.
- Convert the analog signal into a digital value for further processing and analysis within the Ovation system.
Key Features (difficult to confirm without a datasheet):
- Input Signal Type: The specific type of analog signal the module can accept (e.g., voltage, current).
- Input Signal Range: The range of the analog input signal the module can handle (e.g., 0-10V, 4-20mA).
- Analog-to-Digital Conversion (ADC) Resolution: The resolution of the ADC within the module, which determines the accuracy of the converted digital values.
- Number of Input Channels: The datasheet will specify how many analog sensors the module can interface with simultaneously (it might be a single channel or multiple channels).
Applications (within Emerson Ovation Control Systems):
The 5X00241G01 Analog Input Module plays a vital role in various industrial automation and process control applications that rely on continuous measurement of physical quantities. Examples include:
- Monitoring process variables like pressure, temperature, or flow rate based on analog sensor outputs.
- Providing real-time data for feedback loops within control algorithms to maintain desired process conditions.
- Integrating analog sensor data into the Ovation system for visualization, data logging, and alarm generation.
