1.2.2 About the 1701/05 Terminal Base (TB) and the 1701/06 Isolator
Terminal Base (ITB)
The 1701/05 Terminal Base is suitable for all applications
where transducers are installed in non-hazardous, Division
2, or Zone 2 areas. The 1701/05 Terminal Base can also be
used with external safety barriers.
The 1701/06 Isolator Terminal Base (ITB) is required for
applications where intrinsically safe transducers are
installed in Division 1 or Zone 0/1 hazardous areas. The
1701/06 ensures intrinsic safety by using a galvanically
isolated safety barrier (isolator) that is installed directly into
the ITB.
The terminal base provides:
the mounting platform for the system
•
slots for up to four monitors allowing up to 8 channels of
•
monitoring
slots for up to four internal or external transducer I/O
•
modules (one required for each monitor)
slots for up to four isolators (1701/06 ITB only, (one
•
required for each transducer I/O module)
an FMIM slot
•
a Keyphasor slot (one Keyphasor module per terminal
•
base, channel A only)
the power supply slot
•
I/O terminations
•
the Flexbus connection
•
9 coaxial connectors for buffered dynamic signals from
•
the 8 monitor channels and the Keyphasor output
a dynamic connector to connect the 8 buffered dynamic
•
signals to a "patch panel" for easy diagnostic access.
