2.2 Power Supply
figure 5
The Model S214 operates from a +24VDC
(nominal) input. This unregulated source is
fed to a converter board that produces
voltages (see figure 4). These signals are the
source for operating all of the circuitry on the
control and the display boards, and supplying
the sensor with power. Terminal connections
inside of the housing have been provided for
accepting the input power.
