## Overview 

The R45C PFM to Analog Output Converter connects to the PFM output of a sensor, and converts the PFM signal into an analog output. 

Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM) is a way to represent an analog measurement value from a sensor digitally, and the R45C-PF-xx translates that digital representation into an analog output signal. 

- Voltage range is 0 V to 10 V 

- Current range is 4 mA to 20 mA 

- PFM signal input range is 100 Hz to 600 Hz 

## Status Indicators 

The R45C PFM to Analog Output Converter has two amber LED indicators on both sides for connected sensor status and provides adequate indication visibility. There is also a green LED indicator on both sides of the converter, which signals the device's power status.

## Installation 

## Mechanical Installation 

Install the R45C to allow access for functional checks, maintenance, and service or replacement. Do not install the R45C in such a way to allow for intentional defeat. 

Fasteners must be of sufficient strength to guard against breakage. The use of permanent fasteners or locking hardware is recommended to prevent the loosening or displacement of the device. The mounting hole (4.5 mm) in the R45C accepts M4 (#8) hardware. 

See the figure below to help in determining the minimum screw length.

Screw Length (with screw head fitting in counterbore) = 12.9 mm + “X” mm + 3 mm 

CAUTION: Do not overtighten the R45C's mounting screw during installation. Overtightening can affect the performance of the R45C.
