Board that accepts multiple analog inputs and outputs one analog out

Hello!
We are looking for a product that would accept multiple analog inputs and provide a single analog out. The analog output would be either max/min/avg of the values from the analog inputs.
Ideally the unit would accept loop powered 4-20mA inputs and be capable of a single loop powered analog output.
The product should be capable of at least 4 4-20mA inputs.
Please let me know if you require additional descritive information.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi michael1961,

I’m not an expert in this product type, but it seems like the DVP20EX200R PLC may be capable of accomplishing this. It can handle 4 channels of 4-20mA inputs and provides 2 channels of 4-20mA outputs.

I am not at all familiar with the particular software which is used with this PLC, but I would be surprised if it couldn’t do the min/max/average output that you require.

Presumably, any number of PLC’s could handle the software portion, but most would require external input and output modules to do the conversion from and to the 4-20mA signals, whereas the above mentioned part includes this capability in a single device.

I would recommend that you investigate the Delta software to verify suitability for your application. According to the documentation I have found, the recommended software for working with the Delta DLP series is IPSoft.

Thank you for the prompt response.
I will investigate that product and let you know if it fits the bill.
Thanks,
