In complex and variable industrial control systems, signal isolators play a crucial role as an indispensable key component. They not only achieve stable signal transmission and conversion through the principle of linear optocoupler signal isolation but also win the favor of many industries with their low energy consumption and strong anti-interference capabilities. However, faced with a plethora of signal isolators on the market, how to choose high-quality products that are both durable and efficient has become a focal point for many engineers and procurement personnel.
Signal isolator precision is the primary indicator of its performance. High precision signal isolators can ensure the accuracy and stability of the signal during transmission, which is directly related to the operation effect of the entire control system. Therefore, when selecting a signal isolator, be sure to pay attention to its precision parameters and prioritize products with high precision coefficients. This not only reflects the manufacturer's exquisite craftsmanship and excellent design but also serves as an important cornerstone for ensuring the stable operation of the system.
Output ripple is one of the important factors affecting signal isolator precision. It originates from the presence of high-frequency AC components inside the signal isolator, and these high-frequency harmonics threaten the purity of the signal and may cause measurement errors. Therefore, when selecting a signal isolator, special attention should be paid to its output ripple level, preferably choosing products with low output ripple. This effectively reduces signal contamination and improves the accuracy and reliability of signal acquisition.
Temperature drift is an important indicator of signal isolator stability. During continuous long-term operation, signal isolators generate heat, which may cause their output values to shift, i.e., temperature drift. The smaller the temperature drift, the lower the energy consumption and the less heat generation, thus better maintaining its performance stability. Therefore, when selecting signal isolators, those with minimal temperature drift should be prioritized to ensure excellent performance in various working environments.
In addition to the above three key parameters, selecting high-quality signal isolators requires comprehensive consideration of other factors, such as power consumption and response time. Low-power signal isolators not only help in energy conservation and emission reduction but also reduce long-term usage costs. High-speed signal isolators can respond more quickly to input changes, ensuring timely and accurate system control. Therefore, when purchasing, be sure to comprehensively evaluate these parameters to choose the signal isolator that best meets your needs.
In short, choosing high-quality signal isolators requires comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. By focusing on key parameters such as precision, output ripple, temperature drift, power consumption, and response time, we can more accurately judge the performance of signal isolators, thus ensuring their stable operation and high performance in industrial control systems.
