Optocoupler Isolation Module PC817 EL817 Voltage Converter 1-Channel 24V DC Isolator Level Converter Module for PLC SPS Arduino, 1.8V-24V Output Signal, Set of 4, Green
The 1-channel optocoupler isolation module offers a professional solution for signal separation and level adjustment in modern electronics. In automated systems or when working with microcontrollers such as Arduino and PLCs, protecting sensitive components is crucial. The PC817 photocoupler is galvanically isolated to ensure that high voltage circuits and logic circuits remain physically isolated from each other, greatly increasing the operational reliability of your projects. This module is often used in industrial controls where 24V sensor signals must be converted into 3.3V or 5V logic level. Even when controlling inductive loads such as motors or relays, the insulator effectively protects the single-chip microcomputer from electromagnetic interference and reverse voltage. Thanks to the sturdy screw terminals in the 5.0 grid, installation is done quickly without soldering in control cabinets or on experiment boards. The set contains 4 pieces of green insulation boards. The input voltage is optimised to 24V DC, while the output voltage can be flexibly selected between 1.8V and 24V DC. With an insulation voltage of over 3000V and a wide working temperature range from -55 to 110 degrees Celsius, the module is designed for demanding environments. FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions What is the maximum frequency for pulse signals? The module supports a signal frequency of up to 5 kHz. For applications within this range, it provides efficient signal conversion. Can the module be used for power amplification? Yes, if the output current of a microcontroller is too low to directly control certain circuits, this module can be used to amplify the signal provided the output current does not exceed 50mA. Is the polarity selectable at the output? With the help of the integrated jumper cap, you can flexibly adjust whether the output terminal outputs high potential or low potential.
