How do I stage multiple 24VAC contact closures to one proportional analog output?
This is an application question that ACI receives on a regular basis. ACI’s 6N1-ISO-STG interface device is the perfect solution for this. The 6N1-ISO-STG is a true staging device. It can be used in retrofit applications to interface existing two orthree-stage thermostats to new SCR heaters/RTUs.
This is a common example with two inputs and 0-10V output. When the first stage is on, the 6N1-ISO-STG will output 5V. When both stages are on, the output is 10V.
The 6N1-ISO-STG can accept up to 6 inputs
Outputs include 0-5V, 0-10V, and 4-20mA. The 6N1-ISO-STG also offers a second staging mode. It will check inputs sequentially high(#6) to low(#1), to set output percentage. The output percentage is based on the highest input pressed, and ignores others. This is based on the Input # priority.
Example:
4 Inputs used, 0-10VDC output
Activate Input #3. Output = 7.5VDC (3/4 = 75%)
There are endless applications where the 6N1-ISO-STG can be used!
Other applications include commercial or hotel laundromat dryers. Based on the number of dryers running, the exhaust fan will ramp up.
- 1 dryer on = 2.5V
- 2 dryers on = 5V
- 3 dryers on = 7.5V
- 4 dryers on = 10V
Occupancy and alarm for CO system
- No occupancy = 0V
- Occupancy = 5V
- CO Alarm = 10V
