Signal Conditioning

Signal Conditioners are electronic instruments used in factory or machine automation, to convert sensor measurement signal levels to industry standard control signals. Industry standard control signals provide computer and control system manufacturers a common communication method to effectively receive and transmit measurement and control data.

Examples of measurement data include temperature or AC/DC voltage/current signals from various sensors. Examples of control data include on/off signals for a heating element or proportional signals for a valve actuator. There are many thousands of types of sensors used for very general or very specific measurement requirements. Since Signal Conditioners are used to enable process automation, most of the signals measured are produced by sensors and are electrical in nature. Sensor elements for automation usually provide an electrical output or a way of measuring changes in the sensor electrical properties.
