Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about our products and services

DT6240 supports up to 4 channels, but the installed demodulator modules determine the active channel count. Configure a basic module and a DL6220 or DL6230 module for each required channel, together with the appropriate sensor head and cable.

The controller table specifies linearity below ±0.05% FSO with DL6220 and below ±0.025% FSO with DL6230. These are controller-only ratings: total linearity is the sum of controller and sensor contributions. Resolution and synchronization characteristics also depend on the selected module.

The manufacturer distinguishes a 5 kHz analogue bandwidth from a maximum digital measuring rate of 3.906 kHz. Bandwidth is not a substitute for the measurement-value output rate. An analogue path also requires a separate assessment of the connected DAQ.

The listed digital interface for DT6240 is PROFINET, and the controller protection class is IP40. A sensor head’s ingress rating must not be assigned to the controller. System suitability also depends on the selected module, cables and connections.
