The 5B40 and 5B41 are wide-bandwidth single-channel signal conditioning modules that amplify, protect, filter and isolate analog input voltages. Both modules provide a 10 kHz bandwidth which ideally suits them to measuring signals that vary rapidly with time. Examples include pressure inside a plastic injection molding machine, strain on an automobile chassis during a crash test and vibrations on a machine bearing shortly before failure.

A single-pole anti-aliasing filter resides at each modules input. A three-pole, low-pass filter in the output stage sets the bandwidth and yields optimal noise performance for accurate measurement of small signals in high electrical noise.
