Isolated barriers to be used for intrinsic safety applications. They transfer digital signals (NAMUR sensors/mechanical contacts) from a hazardous area to a safe area.
The proximity sensor or switch controls a form C changeover relay contact for the safe area load. The normal output state can be reversed using switch S1. Switch S2 allows output II to be switched between a signal output or an error message output. Switch S3 is used to enable or disable line fault detection of the field circuit. During an error condition, the relays revert to their deenergized state and the LEDs indicate the fault according to NAMUR NE44. A unique collective error messaging feature is available when used with the Power Rail system.
