MLTE-P | Ethernet & 4-20 mA Output | Process & Ration Signals | DIN Rail Transmitter

he Micron Meters 4-20 mA output, process signal input transmitter provides zero and span adjustment for use with a wide range of industrial transducers. Six DC voltage and four DC current input ranges are jumper selectable. The two most sensitive voltage ranges, 200.00 mV and 2.0000V, provide a high input impedance of 1 GΩ to minimize the load on the voltage signal.

The transmitter can be set to a ratio mode (or potentiometer follower mode) by making selections at the connector and in software. In this mode, the transmitter output tracks a ratio of the applied excitation voltage and is unaffected by changes in the excitation voltage. This capability is used for resistive bridge sensors and voltage dividers, such as potentiometers which track wiper position. Ratiometric measurements provide an exceptional accuracy of 0.01% of reading ± 2 counts.

Fast read rate at up to 50 or 60 conversions per second while integrating the signal over a full power line cycle is provided by Concurrent Slope (Pat 5,262,780) analog-to-digital conversion. High read rate is ideal for peak or valley capture and for real-time computer interface and control. Digital signal filtering modes are selectable for stable readings in electrically noisy environments. The internal digital readings and analog output can be individually selected to be either unfiltered or filtered.

Standard features of Micron MLTE transmitters include:

  • Ethernet I/O, isolated. Supported protocols are Modbus RTU and ASCII (tunneled via Modbus TCP) and Custom ASCII. The latter is simpler than the Modbus protocol and is recommended when all devices are Micron units. Note that RS232 or RS485 data I/O in lieu of Ethernet is provided by MLT Series transmitters.
  • 4-20 mA, 0-20 mA or 0-10V analog transmitter output, isolated, jumper-selectable and user scalable. All selections provide 16-bit (0.0015%) resolution of output span and 0.02% output accuracy of a reading from -99,999 to +99,999 counts that is also transmitted digitally. Output isolation from signal and power grounds eliminates potential ground loop problems. The supply can drive 20 mA into a 500 ohm (or lower) load for 10V compliance, or 10V into a 5K ohm (or higher) load for 2 mA compliance.
  • Dual solid state relays, isolated. Available for local alarm or control. Rated 120 mA at 130 Vac or 180 Vdc.
  • Universal 85-264 Vac power. Low-voltage 10-48 Vdc or 12-32 Vac power is optional.

Discovery and configuration of the Ethernet Nodes is easily achieved with the Node Manager Software, and the discovered transmitters can then be programmed using the  Instrument Setup Software. Both software's run on a PC under MS Windows and can be downloaded from this website at no charge.
