Hi,
We are making proposal for centralized monitoring & logging device for our biggest client. The purpose of this system is to monitor temperature/ RH reading (via analog signal of 0/4-20 mA) & log it to a database being retrievable anytime.
The manufacturer of the "remote AI module" specifies that it should be located no more than 50m from the temperature/ RH controller. I would like to countercheck their claim on this, because I've read many threads on the forum that current loop runs long way without signal problem. So, I called them up & ask for the max. impedance of the "remote AI module" but they said it was not specified.
The wire they recommend is AWG16 (1.25mm2), shielded.
Is there any other way to countercheck the maximum length the "remote AI module" should be located? Anyway, the AI module is 220 Vac rated.
Thanks
