PR Electronics – 3118 Bipolar Isolated Converter/Splitter

A signal isolator or signal converter is a signal conditioning device used to interface process signals with other devices. Signal isolators ensure a stable and accurate signal output by offering superior resistance to electro-magnetic interference. They are also capable of converting and amplifying the process signals for improved performance and compatibility. PR electronics offers a range of isolators with superior performance and low power consumption.

Description

Application

  • The 3118 is an isolating converter and splitter which can be used for signal conversion of standard bipolar analog process signals into two individual unipolar analog signals.
  • The unit offers 4-port isolation and provides surge suppression and protects control systems from transients and noise.
  • The 3118 also eliminates ground loops and can be used for measuring floating signals.
  • Mounting of the 3118 can be in Safe area or in Zone 2 and Cl. 1 Div 2 area and is approved for marine applications.
  • The analog output can be easily configured and programmed to be bipolar in the ranges ±10 mA and ±20 mA (*special setup).

Technical characteristics

  • Flexible 24 VDC (±30%) supply via power rail or connectors.
  • Excellent conversion accuracy, better than 0.05% of selected range.
  • A green front LED indicates operation status for the device.
  • All terminals are protected against overvoltage and polarity error.
  • Meeting the NAMUR NE21 recommendations, the 3118 ensures top measurement performance in harsh EMC environments.
  • High galvanic isolation of 2.5 kVAC.
  • Fast input to output response time < 7 ms / > 100 Hz – 10 Hz bandwidth damping possible via DIP-switch.
  • Excellent signal/noise ratio > 60 dB.

Mounting / installation / programming

  • Easy configuration of factory calibrated measurement ranges via DIP-switches.
  • A very low power consumption allows DIN rail mounting without the need for any air gap.
  • Wide temperature operation range: -25…+70°C.
