The Mtl Sum5 Range Of Modules Concept; Mtl Sum5 Range Description - Eaton MTL SUM5 Instruction Manual

1.2
The MTL4 range of modules and its accessories represent a simpler, general purpose
approach to what used to be a more complex, tailored method of choosing individual
isolating interfaces to suit the circuit type. The simplicity arises from the use of a
'universal' isolator that is mounted in a base chosen to suit the field wiring type, i.e.
hazardous-area or safe-area (general purpose).
This new approach incorporates loop-disconnects and pluggable surge protection
without any additional wiring. This not only reduces cabinet space, but dramatically
reduces the number of hand-wired connections, thus removing many possible points of
failure. Secondly, it drastically reduces spares inventory by the use of a single universal
isolator interface for inputs, outputs, analogue or digital circuits.
The main module carrier can be chosen for general purpose screw-terminal connections
or to suit the interfaces of existing control system manufacturers. Diagnostics and
configuration control can be carried out remotely, significantly reducing installation and
maintenance down-time.
