YOKOGAWA VJH7-016-ASN0
Product Overview
The Yokogawa VJH7-016-ASN0 is a microprocessor-based, multi-function isolator belonging to the JUXTA VJ Series of signal conditioners from Yokogawa Electric Corporation. This plug-in device is engineered to receive DC current or voltage signals from industrial field instruments and convert them into pairs of isolated DC voltage or current signals for control systems, PLCs, and DCS. Part of Yokogawa’s renowned VJ series, the VJH7 combines high-performance capabilities with a compact, space-saving design, making it an ideal choice for demanding industrial automation environments where reliable signal isolation and integrity are essential.-27-2
Model Number Breakdown: VJH7-016-ASN0
The VJH7-016-ASN0 model suffix code follows Yokogawa’s structured part numbering system. Based on technical reference manuals and selection tables for the VJH7 series, the breakdown is interpreted as follows:
| Position | Code | Interpretation |
| Product Series | VJH7 | Multi-function Isolator |
| Output Type | 0 | Isolated single output or dual output configuration |
| Power Supply / Input Signal | 16 | Specific input signal type and power configuration |

Functional Capabilities
Field Configuration
The VJH7 series supports on-site configuration using either a PC running the VJ77 Parameter Setting Tool software or the Handy Terminal JHT200. Through the 5-pin communication connector on the front panel, engineers can configure:
Input type selection (VOLTS for DC voltage or CURRENT for DC current)-38
Input range 0% and 100% values-38
Software filter settings (OFF / LOW / MIDDLE / HIGH)-38
Output action direction (DIRECT or REVERSE)-38
External input resistance correction for precise current input-38
Alarm setpoints, hysteresis, ON/OFF delay, and relay action direction-36
Alarm Output Configuration
When output-2 is specified for alarm output, the following functions become available:
Two independent alarm setpoints (Alarm-1 and Alarm-2)
Configurable alarm action direction (HI-LO or LO-HI)
Adjustable hysteresis
Configurable ON delay and OFF delay timers
Relay contact rating: 30 V DC 1 A maximum
Advanced Circuit Design
The Yokogawa VJH7 leverages a custom-designed ASIC PWM/analog conversion IC, manufactured internally by Yokogawa Electric, that has been specifically optimized for signal conditioning applications. This IC offers significantly improved noise immunity compared to conventional solutions.
The input section consists of four functional blocks: input processing circuit, limiter circuit, voltage/PWM conversion circuit, and pulse output suppression circuit. The input processing circuit handles DC voltage or current signals, adjusts input range width, and performs linearization as needed. For applications requiring thermocouple or RTD inputs, sister models VJU7 within the VJ series provide universal temperature conversion capabilities.-19-3
The voltage/PWM conversion circuit converts the limited voltage signal into a pulse-width modulated (PWM) voltage signal, which is then routed through an opto-isolator—a highly effective method for reducing static current consumption while maintaining robust signal isolation. This design approach has enabled the VJH7 series to achieve noise immunity levels that equal or exceed previous-generation isolators, despite a significantly reduced footprint. The surface mount area required for PWM/analog conversion has been reduced to approximately one-third of prior designs.-17
The modular architecture separates the first and second output sections onto independent printed wiring boards, allowing the dual-output configuration to be built by adding the second output module to the single-output base specification—a design that improves both manufacturing flexibility and serviceability.-17
Certification & Compliance Notes
Important certification notice: The VJH7 series, including models VJA4, VJA7, VJH7, VJP8, VJQ7, VJQ8, VJS7, and VJU7, carry CE, UL, and CSA markings. However, compliance for these models is only guaranteed when powered by 15–30 V DC supply voltage. For units powered by 100–240 V AC/DC, confirm certification applicability with your local Yokogawa representative.-14-3
If option codes /C0 or /FB are specified, conformity to safety and EMC standards is excluded, and CE marking does not apply.-24
