MX100 and MW100 30CH Input Modules



The Yokogawa MX100 and MW100 low speed data acquisition systems have a large variety of input and output modules available. Each module varies based on channel count, scan speed, types of connections (screw VS clamp) and what kind of inputs the module can handle. The most common module is the 10CH Universal Input module. It can handle DC voltages, DC currents, thermocouples, RTD's, and DI's. There is also a 30CH version of the Universal input module. The key differences between the 10CH and 30CH modules are:

  • Fastest scan speed on the 30CH module is 500ms whereas the 10CH module can scan as fast as 100ms

  • No RTD inputs are available on the 30CH module

  • The 30CH module comes either with a fixed screw or clamp terminal whereas the 10CH module can be used with a clamp, screw, 10 ohm, 100 ohm, or 250 ohm terminal
