TxIsoBlock-HRT
TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER − USER GUIDE – V1.1x C
1.
INTRODUCTION
TxIsoBlock-HRT is a configurable head 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. TxIsoBlock-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.
