What is a Signal converter?

A signal converter is a device that converts electrical signals from various types of sensors into electrical current signals for industrial use. In general, the role of a sensor is to collect information such as temperature, load, and rotation speed of a machine's rotating shaft from the object to be measured, convey it to us as measurement data, and convey the obtained data to control equipment. The control device controls the system by outputting new commands. In this process, the signal converter converts the electrical signal output by the sensor into an electrical signal that can be handled by the control device. In addition to transmitting signals, signal converters also play the role of electrically disconnecting to prevent troubles in control equipment installed in the post-process of the circuit when abnormal electrical signals are output from the sensor. Signal converters include a wide variety of equipment. Both receive information from sensors and play a role in transmitting information to control devices.
