Product Description

The AI204/2 is a high-precision analog measurement module for the Bachmann M1 system, featuring four galvanically isolated differential input channels. Engineered for environments where signal integrity is critical, it provides 16-bit high-speed A/D conversion, robust filtering, and full channel-to-bus isolation. Its slim 22 mm profile enables high-density I/O configurations, making it ideal for power plants, test benches, and precision process monitoring.

Operational Applications

  • High-precision monitoring of pressure, flow, and thermal sensors in energy and industrial sectors.

  • Prevents ground loops and cross-talk between distributed sensors.

  • Suitable for EMI-prone environments, ensuring stable, accurate analog readings.


Functional Hardware Comparison

  • Compared to the AI208, the AI204/2 emphasizes superior electrical isolation and per-channel accuracy.

  • The /2 variant provides enhanced filtering for high-fidelity signals.

  • Ideal for safety-critical or precision feedback loops, while AI208 is for general-purpose analog sensing.


Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the AI204/2 measure PT100/RTD sensors directly?
A: No. It is optimized for voltage and current inputs. For RTDs or PT100, use dedicated temperature modules (e.g., TI214) or convert to a 4–20 mA signal.

Q: Can each channel be configured independently?
A: Yes. Using Bachmann SolutionCenter, each of the four channels can be set for different signal types (e.g., Channel 1: 0–10 V, Channel 2: 4–20 mA).
