Sun amplifiers achieve CE approval

Second Quarter 2007 Other technologies

Sun has announced that its line of proportional amplifiers has achieved CE approval.

Emissions tests were performed under test regulations EN55011: 1998/A1: 1999 Group 1, Class A.

Immunity tests were performed under test regulations EN61326: 1997/A1: 1998/A2: 2001 that met Criterion B.

Proportional amplifiers take a standard 0-10 V or 0-20 mA input value and output a proportional current value to operate a proportional solenoid valve.

Sun's range of amplifiers covers output current ranges from 0-600 mA and 0-1200 mA.

The devices form the basis of standalone control and can be configured for operating mode (for example direct- or inverse proportional control or 2-speed control), input range limiting, output range limiting and ramp times.

The amplifiers are configured using a handheld programmer that eliminates the need to remove protective covers or to manually adjust miniature potentiometers. Once configured, the settings are stored in permanent memory within the amplifier unit.
