Signal Path and Interface Details
The transmitter accepts a raw proximity probe signal and amplifies it internally. Next, it filters noise and converts the result into a proportional current loop. Because the design draws power from the same two wires, field wiring stays simple. The 991-06-70-01-CN supports long cable runs without extra supply conductors.
Energy Storage and Power Draw
No internal battery or supercapacitor resides inside this module. The unit relies entirely on the external loop supply for operation. Consequently, power loss immediately interrupts the output signal. System designers should therefore provide an uninterruptible 24 Vdc source.
Installation Notes
Operators mount the housing on a standard DIN rail inside a control cabinet. Shielded twisted-pair cable minimizes electromagnetic interference over distance. Meanwhile, the IP65 enclosure tolerates dust and water spray in industrial settings. Always verify loop polarity before energizing the circuit.
