2-2 ADAM 5000 IO modules User’s Manual
Analog input modules use an A/D converter to convert sensor voltage,
current, thermocouple or RTD signals into digital data. The digital data is then
translated into engineering units. The analog input modules protect your
equipment from ground loops and power surges by providing opto-isolation
of the A/D input and transformer based isolation up to3,000 V

2.1 ADAM-5013 3-channel RTD input module
The ADAM-5013 is a 16-bit, 3-channel RTD input module that features
programmable input ranges on all channels. This module is an extremely
cost-effective solution for industrial measurement and monitoring
applications. Its opto-isolated inputs provide 3,000 V

from damage due to high input line voltage.
Note: Owing to the conversion time required by the A/D converter, the
initialization time of each ADAM-5013 module is 5 seconds. Thus the
total initialization time will be about 20 seconds if all 4 I/O slots in
an ADAM-5000 main unit contain ADAM-5013 modules.
