Function
This isolated barrier is used for intrinsic safety applications.
The device transfers digital signals (NAMUR sensors/mechanical contacts) from the explosion-hazardous area to the non-explosion-
hazardous area.
Each input controls a passive transistor for the non-explosion-hazardous area load.
Via switches the mode of operation can be reversed and the line fault detection can be switched off.
During a fault state, the transistors revert to their de-energized state and LEDs indicate the fault according to NAMUR NE 44. A separate fault bus
is available. This fault bus can be monitored if the termination board supports a module fault detection.
This device mounts on a HiC termination board.
