The Rheintacho 5873.x01 F/I(U)-Converter is a frequency-to-analog signal converter designed to convert frequency or rotational-speed sensor signals into standardized analog current or voltage outputs. It is suitable for drive, machinery, and process monitoring systems where speed/frequency signals must be transmitted to PLCs, indicators, recorders, or other control equipment.
Features
- Converts frequency signals into linear analog signals
- Selectable 0–20 mA, 4–20 mA, or 0–10 V output
- Compatible with multiple speed-sensor technologies
- Supports RS232 configuration
- Programmable measuring range and response characteristics
- Suitable for rotational-speed measurement
- Provides standardized signals for PLC and automation systems
- Compact IP20 enclosure
- Designed for marine and industrial control applications
- DNV GL type approval documented for the 5873 series
