Why Choose the IMO DUALCON-6 Isolating Signal Converter?
The IMO DUALCON-6 is a versatile universal input isolating signal converter designed for signal conditioning, conversion, isolation and distribution in industrial automation and process control systems. As part of the IMO DUALCON signal conditioning range, it combines a configurable universal analogue input with two configurable analogue outputs in a compact DIN rail-mounted enclosure.
The DUALCON-6 accepts a broad range of analogue signals including current, voltage, millivolt, thermocouple, RTD and potentiometer inputs. Each of its two analogue outputs can be configured for voltage, current source or current sink operation, allowing one field signal to be converted and distributed to multiple PLC, controller, display or monitoring inputs.
Designed for 24 V-class control systems, the DUALCON-6 operates from 16–36 V DC or 18–32 V AC. It provides full 1000 V three-port isolation between the input, outputs and power supply and is housed in a compact 17.5 mm wide enclosure for standard TS35 DIN rail mounting.

Reliable Signal Conditioning for Industrial Automation
Signal converters provide an interface between field instrumentation and industrial control equipment by converting and electrically isolating analogue signals. The IMO DUALCON-6 combines universal input capability with two independent analogue outputs, allowing a single process measurement to be converted into suitable voltage or current signals for multiple control and monitoring devices.
Its full three-port isolation electrically separates the input, output stages and power supply, helping prevent ground loops and reducing the transfer of unwanted electrical interference between connected systems. User-selectable input and output ranges also allow the same DUALCON-6 platform to be applied to numerous signal conditioning requirements, reducing the need to stock multiple dedicated converter types.
Typical Applications
- Industrial process signal conditioning and isolation.
- PLC and automation system analogue interfaces.
- 4–20 mA transmitter and instrumentation loops.
- Thermocouple and RTD temperature measurement systems.
- Voltage and millivolt signal conversion.
- Analogue signal splitting between two control or monitoring devices.
- Industrial machinery and control panels.
- Process monitoring, measurement and data acquisition systems.
