Function

This isolated barrier is used for intrinsic safety applications.

The device transfers DC signals of fire alarms and smoke alarms from the hazardous area to the non-hazardous area. The device can also be
used to control I/P converters, valves, indicators, and audible alarms.
A reverse polarity protection prevents damage to the device caused by faulty wiring.
The device is loop powered. From the control side no additional power supply has to be connected.
Use the technical data to verify that proper voltage is available to the field devices.

Application
The device is used for isolation of power loops for the control of positioner, I/P converters etc. A current source is connected to
the safe area terminals.
The device is used for isolation of a current signal from fire detectors or similar sensors. In this case, a voltage source can be
connected to the safe area terminals. A specific measurement current across a passive sensor can be measured in the safe area
with a series resistor (min. 50 ). When a voltage supply is used, the measuring resistor can also provide current limitations.
