This DC Voltage sensor measures DC voltage up to 200V. Powered by an external 12VDC power supply, the DC Voltage Sensor provides a 0 to 5VDC analog signal that is linearly proportional to the voltage measured at the terminal blocks.
The DC Voltage Sensor can easily be mounted using the screw holes, or on a 35mm wide DIN rail for quick installation. The terminal blocks accommodate conductors of up to AWG #16.
The voltage sensor connects to an analog input on Phidgets I/O boards. The formula to translate the output voltage into measured voltage is:
V = Vout * 40You can use a 12V sensor adapter to connect this sensor to your InterfaceKit or Hub. See the "Compatible Products" tab for more details.

This voltage sensor requires a 12V power supply and outputs a 0-5V signal depending on the voltage measurement. For a simple way to provide 12 volts, you can use our 12V sensor adapter. It uses the 5V supply from your InterfaceKit or Hub and steps it up to 12V while simultaneously passing the 0-5V signal from the sensor into the Phidget cable.
