NX-AD3603 High-Performance Analog Input Module | Omron Industrial Automation Solutions
Precision Analog Signal Acquisition for Industrial Automation
The Omron NX-AD3603 represents the pinnacle of analog input module technology within Omron's premium NX Series, engineered specifically for mission-critical industrial automation applications. This high-performance module delivers exceptional signal conversion capabilities with laboratory-grade precision in rugged industrial environments. Designed for seamless integration with Omron's NX-series programmable controllers, the NX-AD3603 provides four isolated channels of analog-to-digital conversion with industry-leading 16-bit resolution and rapid 100μs conversion speed per channel. Its robust construction meets stringent industrial standards while maintaining compact dimensions (32 × 98 × 85 mm) for space-constrained installations. Backed by Omron's 1-year manufacturer warranty, this module offers reliable performance in temperature extremes (0°C to 55°C) and challenging electrical environments.
Advanced Technical Features and Operational Benefits
- Multi-Channel Versatility: Four fully configurable input channels supporting both voltage (±10V, 0-10V, 1-5V) and current (0-20mA, 4-20mA) signals with individual channel configuration capability
- High-Fidelity Conversion: 16-bit analog-to-digital converter (65,536 divisions) delivers ±0.1% voltage accuracy and ±0.2% current accuracy for precise process monitoring
- Ultra-Fast Response: 100 microsecond per channel conversion speed enables real-time closed-loop control and rapid system response to process variations
- Enhanced Signal Integrity: Channel-to-channel isolation (500V AC for 1 minute) eliminates cross-talk and ensures measurement accuracy in electrically noisy environments
- Industrial-Grade Construction: DIN rail mountable design with vibration resistance (10-150Hz) and shock resistance (147m/s²) for reliable operation in demanding factory conditions
- Energy-Efficient Operation: Low power consumption (2.5W typical) reduces heat generation and minimizes impact on system power budgets
- Wide Environmental Tolerance: Operates reliably across industrial temperature ranges (0°C to 55°C) and humidity conditions (10% to 90% RH non-condensing)
- Global Compliance: CE, UL, and cUL certifications ensure compliance with international safety and EMC standards for industrial equipment
- Omron Quality Assurance: Manufactured under Omron's strict quality control standards with 1-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship
Industrial Application Solutions
