SIL 2 TEMPERATURE SIGNAL CONVERTER, MULTIFUNCTION
DESCRIPTION
The single channel Temperature Signal Converter, D5072S, accepts a low level dc signal from millivolt, thermocouple or 2-3-4 wire resistance/RTD or transmitting potentiometer sensor, located in Hazardous Area, and converts, with isolation, the signal to drive a Safe Area load, suitable for applications requiring SIL 2 level (according to IEC 61511) in safety related systems for high risk industries. Output signal can be direct or reverse. Modbus RTU RS-485 output is available on Bus connector.
Cold junction compensation can be programmed as:
- Automatic: provided by an internal temperature sensor;
- Fixed: to a user-customizable temperature value;
Output function can be configured as: Adder, subtractor, low/high selector.
Modules are provided with alarm function, which is available via photoMOS output, Termination Board and Power Bus.
Mounting on standard DIN-Rail, with or without Power Bus, or on customized Termination Boards, in Safe Area / Non Hazardous Location or in Zone 2 / Class I, Division 2 or Class I, Zone 2.
