GE Electric SR489-P1-HI-A20-EH High-Density Analog Input Module
The SR489-P1-HI-A20-EH is a high-density analog input module from Schneider Electric’s Modicon M580 series, designed for precision process control in industrial automation. With 20 differential channels supporting ±10V, ±20mA, and RTD inputs, this module delivers 16-bit resolution and ±0.05% accuracy, making it ideal for oil & gas, chemical, and power generation applications.
1. Product Overview
The SR489-P1-HI-A20-EH integrates with Modicon M580 PLCs to monitor temperature, pressure, and flow signals in real time. Its channel-to-channel isolation (2.5 kVrms) protects against surges, while HART protocol support enables digital communication with smart transmitters. The module’s -40°C to +70°C operating range and IP20-rated design ensure reliability in harsh environments.
