JUXTA M Series for Unified Signals

M Series unified signal converters are plug-in type signal conditioners for common instrumentation signals. They have an I/O signal range of 4 to 20 mA DC or 1 to 5 V DC.

Details

The M Series bring Yokogawa performance and reliability to the popular plug-in style. Using industry standard pin configurations, anyone can upgrade to JUXTA performance by just plugging one in. The M Series signal conditioners for unified signals are applicable to the unified input/output signal applications for cost saving design.

  • For 4 to 20 mA DC or 1 to 5 V DC unified input/output signal applications.
