Novus TxIsoRail-HRT Operating Manual

TxIsoRail-HRT
TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER - OPERATING MANUAL – V1.0x D

INTRODUCTION

The TxIsoRail-HRT is a configurable DIN rail mount temperature
transmitter widely required in various industrial processes. Its
universal input can be configured to read RTDs, thermocouples and
mV signals.
It converts the input signal into a 4-20 mA linear output proportional
to the configured range. The TxIsoRail-HRT uses the HART®
communication protocol over the 4-20 mA output current loop.
The input and output are electrically isolated, enhancing their
performance and user and system safety.
