Description

Application – 5105B Ex isolated driver

  • Safety barrier for current signals transmitted to I/P converters and displays mounted in hazardous area.
  • Safety barrier for analog current / voltage signals transmitted to hazardous area.
  • 1 : 1 or signal conversion of analog current / voltage signals.

Technical characteristics

  • The 20 factory-calibrated measurement ranges in the 5105B can be selected by the internal DIP-switches without the need for a recalibration. Special measurement ranges can be delivered.
  • PR5105B is based on microprocessor technology for gain and offset. The analog signal is transmitted at a response time of less than 25 ms.
  • Inputs, outputs, and supply are floating and galvanically separated.

Mounting / installation

  • Mounted vertically or horizontally on a DIN rail. By way of the 2-channel version up to 84 channels per meter can be mounted.

Note

  • Not suitable for new installations requiring certification to the latest ATEX standards – see ATEX certificate DEMKO 99ATEX126014 and EU Declaration of Conformity for details.
