Overview
The AI2 2500M/AI2/XXXXX/XXXXXX is a 2-channel universal analog input module originally manufactured by Eurotherm (now part of Invensys Foxboro).
This analogue input module is used to monitor analogue signals from a wide range of plant sensors. The mA and TC inputs each require the appropriate Terminal Unit.
The second channel of the AI2 has a special high impedance range for use with zirconia probe inputs.

2500 Unit Controller
High performance, high accuracy, high functionality in an I/O system that provides cost effective access to a wide range of advanced functions including PID control with auto tuning and gain scheduling.
Designed to communicate with Modbus RTU™, Profibus™, DeviceNet™ or Modbus TCP/IP masters, it can be used for signal conditioning, alarm monitoring, remote data acquisition or devolved control, for systems such as the Eurotherm Visual Supervisor, PC based SCADA packages and PLC’s.
Eight PID blocks, provide an extensive range of control strategies. Each block offers one-shot auto tuning to optimise control performance without the need for specialist knowledge. Every PID block may be a Single PID, Cascade, Ratio or Override controller, each providing the choice of analogue, time proportioned or valve position output.
Six base sizes are available to take from 2 to 16 I/O modules each. Up to 16 bases may be daisy chained to provide acquisition and multiloop control solutions with up to 128 loops.
DIN rail mounting allows the 2500 to be located where the control action is required, minimising the cost of the cable used, as only the communications need be taken to the User Interface. The 2500 may also be mounted on part of the machine, saving the cost of centralised control cubicles.
A friendly Windows configurator package, ‘iTools’ is used to set up the 2500. ‘iTools’ parameterises and commissions the I/O points, the Toolkit and PID function blocks and interconnects the different variables, alarms, function blocks and I/O. ‘Toolkit blocks’ provide local combinational logic and mathematical calculation.
