VT420 4-20mA Current Loop Converter

Description

The VT420 converter of direct current 4-20mA is used for measurement of constant current on 4-20mA from different sensors and converting data into the format of an IP monitoring system. The system interface allows you to assign the sensor and introduce the function data conversion.

The sensor is also an analog plug-and-play sensor. It can be connected to any analog (A1-A8) port of any monitoring system or an analog port of the VT408 / Analog extension unit. It outputs the data received from a 3rd party current loop sensor into the analog signal recognized by the Vutlan monitoring unit. You can then configure thresholds, type of 3rd party sensor,

The maximum amount of sensors and maximum length can be extended using the VT408 / Sensor extension unit.

Use cases

  • Industrial Automation: The VT420 is ideal for monitoring processes where current sensors are employed, such as in automated production lines or machinery.
  • Environmental Monitoring: It can be used in environmental systems that rely on current-based sensors for tracking variables like temperature, humidity, or pressure.
  • Building Management Systems (BMS): The converter can be integrated into BMS for monitoring and controlling HVAC systems and other critical infrastructure.
  • Diesel backup tanks: Monitor diesel level current sensors.

Sensor features

Logic schemes

Logic schemes are used to specify automatic actions to events that occur in the system.

Dashboard view

The system allows to customize the dashboard individually for each user and displays the most important information on it in a visual form.
Add widgets with multi graphs, gauge meters or knobs.

Thresholds

Each sensor has Low Alarm, Low Warning, Normal, High Warning, and High alarm threshold states for logic control & sending of notification.

Graphs and Logging

Vutlan supports SD card logging up to 500 Gb. You can log a whole systems loaded with sensors for 3 years.

Add more analog sensors using VT408 or VT408DIN

'VT408 Sensor extension unit' and 'VT408DIN Sensor extension unit" increase the number of analog sensors connected to any Vutlan monitoring unit. Each VT408 unit adds 8 analog sensors. Multiple VT408 units can be connected using a daisy CAN chain. Sensors connected to the extension unit appear in the system automatically.

Systems with CAN ports:

To read data from the CAN sensors, you need a Vutlan monitoring and control system. A monitoring system may have x1 or x2 CAN ports.
