ADAM-6217 Industrial Analog Input Module Features
Eight Differential Analog Input Channels
The ADAM-6217 provides eight differential channels for collecting analog process signals from transmitters, sensors, and industrial instrumentation.Flexible Voltage Current And Millivolt Signal Support
The module accepts a broad selection of voltage and current ranges, including 4 to 20 mA process signals, enabling connection to a variety of field measurement devices.16 Bit Resolution With High Speed Sampling
The ADAM-6217 delivers 16 bit analog input resolution and selectable total sampling rates of 10, 100, or 250 samples per second. High speed mode supports responsive monitoring where signal changes must be captured more quickly.Reliable Measurement Performance
Voltage input accuracy is rated at ±0.1% of full scale range at 25°C, while current input accuracy is rated at ±0.2% of full scale range at 25°C. High speed mode provides ±0.2% of full scale range voltage accuracy and ±0.3% of full scale range current accuracy at 250 samples per second.Daisy Chain Ethernet Connectivity
Two 10/100Base TX Ethernet ports allow modules to be connected in a daisy chain arrangement. Auto bypass protection supports network continuity when an individual module unexpectedly shuts down.Peer To Peer And Graphic Condition Logic Functions
Peer to Peer communication supports direct data exchange between compatible I/O modules, while Graphic Condition Logic enables configured logic rules for local measurement and automation tasks. These functions cannot operate simultaneously.Industrial Isolation And Protection
The ADAM-6217 includes 2,500 VDC isolation protection, built in TVS and ESD protection, and power reversal protection to support dependable operation in electrically demanding industrial environments.
