External input/output modules for control units

MAV421, MAV422 – Modules with 4–20 mA Output

The MAV421 and MAV422 external modules are RS485 converters operating under the FINET protocol, providing galvanically isolated active current outputs of 4–20 mA or 0–20 mA. The MAV421 module has one current output (I1), while the MAV422 module has two current outputs (I1 and I2).

  • 1 or 2 active current outputs: 4–20 mA or 0–20 mA
  • Galvanic isolation of outputs from the supply voltage and the RS485 serial bus
  • A precise 16-bit converter ensures high accuracy of the output signal
  • Option to connect an external power supply for the analog outputs
  • FINET and FINET_SO protocols, configurable address in the range of 121 to 136
  • Integrated overvoltage protection for both inputs and outputs
  • Supply voltage range: 12 to 24 V DC
  • Mechanically designed for DIN rail mounting, 2 standard modules wide

Description

The MAV421 and MAV422 modules are designed to expand the number of 4–20 mA analog outputs on FIEDLER units. The modules, which feature one or two current outputs, are designed for mounting on a 35 mm DIN rail. LEDs indicate the power status, the output current loop, and communication with the H3 unit.

Applications

  • Increasing the number of analog outputs in control systems
  • Transmitting measured values to a higher-level system
  • Controlling frequency converters and servo valves; smooth machine control
