Sums / subtracts up to three voltage or current input signals. The
output signal may be current or voltage and will be proportional to the sum or
difference of the input signals. This unit will perform an averaging function
with equal input ranges. See 112-6A for number of inputs greater than three. |

Rate Limiter |
A range of
signal conditioners providing functions which control the rate of change in the output
signal for a change in input signal. These units may also provide signal
conversion. The time constant is adjustable by a front panel mounted dial.
Times to FSD are calibrated to order and are typically available from 0-60s up
to 0-120s. |

Slow Up Fast Down
Response Unit: the response curve is an exponential and the time to steady
state output is the same for any magnitude of change of a rising input signal.
However for a negative going change in input signal, the output response is
virtually instant. |
|
Type |
B12-17/0 |
|
|
|
|
Rate Limiter:
the response curve is linear giving a ramp with a fixed rate of change. The
effect on the output is a response time proportional to the magnitude of the
input signal change. |
