Features:
- High-Fidelity 16-Bit Signal Conversion
- Individually Isolated Channel Topology (/SI)
- Ruggedized Construction with Extensive Marine Type Approvals
The Bachmann AO202/SI utilizes a premium 16-bit resolution engine that translates digital parameters into ultra-granular 305 nA steps. This ensures fluid control over high-precision industrial processes, effectively eliminating stepped or jerky movements in proportional valves and motor drives.
By incorporating comprehensive 500 V galvanic isolation per channel, the Bachmann AO202/SI physically decouples each current loop from the other and from the internal backplane. This architectural design completely eliminates cross-channel interference and prevents devastating localized field faults from propagating to the core PLC system.
Engineered to thrive where standard controllers fail, the Bachmann AO202/SI carries prestigious global maritime certifications such as DNV, Lloyd's Register, and ABS. Its robust hardware layout resists heavy vibration, thermal shock down to -30°C, and severe electromagnetic fields typical of vessel engine rooms and wind turbine nacelles.
The AO202/SI Bachmann Analog Output Module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

- Marine Propulsion and Governor Control: The module provides steady current loops to regulate fuel injectors and electronic governors in massive marine diesel engines, where signal drifting could result in dangerous engine synchronization failures.
- Wind Turbine Blade Pitch Adjustment: Installed inside the rotating hub of utility-scale wind turbines, the hardware drives proportional hydraulic valves or servo-amplifiers to constantly tweak blade angles against turbulent wind vectors.
- Water & Wastewater Pumping Stations: It accurately regulates chemical dosing pump speeds and large main line flow control valves based on remote telemetry data, handling long field cable runs without losing signal precision.
- Power Plant Steam Valve Actuation: In conventional power generation facilities, the module safely modulates critical high-pressure steam valves, leveraging its isolated channels to reject massive grid-switching grid noise.
- High-Accuracy Under Thermal Stress: Unlike standard controllers that experience massive thermal drift, this module restricts total full-scale error to ±0.6% across its complete -30°C to +60°C operating window, ensuring stable output year-round.
- Sub-Millisecond Dynamic Settling Time: With a rapid maximum settling time of 3 ms to hit 0.1% of the targeted value, the hardware delivers instantaneous response times for high-speed industrial closed-loop controls.
- Advanced Cross-Talk Noise Rejection: Boasting a cross-talk attenuation of > 100 dB, the circuit layout maintains signal purity even when parallel channels are driving massively different loads simultaneously.
- Energy-Efficient Low Burden Optimization: Capable of pushing full 20mA signals into high 500 Ω loops while running cool, it minimizes internal heat dissipation inside closed, unventilated automation cabinets.
- Native SolutionCenter Workspace Integration: Complete hardware parameters, scaling limits, and safety fallback states are quickly declared inside Bachmann's centralized software environment, removing the need for manual code logic.
- Flexible Current Profile Scaling: Software registers allow the 2 output channels to be independently scaled for 0-20 mA or standard 4-20 mA configurations, accommodating a massive array of legacy and modern industrial field equipment.
- Deterministic I/O Registry Mapping: Channel value assignments are coupled directly to the M200 controller’s deterministic real-time tasks, ensuring that analog updates match exact CPU clock cycle execution for jitter-free control.
- Intelligent Error Handling & Failsafe Definitions: Programmers can pre-define specific fallback behaviors (such as Last Value Hold or Force to Zero) within the module's setup, protecting machinery if backplane communications ever drop.
