Do you need MTL5500 range MTL5546 ISOLATING DRIVER for 4–20mA HART® valve positioners?

The MTL5500 range launches a new industry standard for DIN rail mounting products, ideally suited to a wide variety of interface tasks for process instrumentation.

The MTL5500 range modules are versatile yet simple to apply; use the latest technology and yet are well proven.

These contrasting attributes stem from the progression of our expertise in the design and manufacture of isolators for intrinsic safety and the application of innovative technology to achieve the required separation and segregation of the circuits.

The MTL5500 (DIN-rail mounting) and MTL4500 (backplane mounting) isolators share a common design, differing only in the mechanical mounting and connection methods.

MTL5546  1ch 4-20mA smart isolating driver + LFD

MTL4546/C/Y – MTL5546/Y ISOLATING DRIVER for 4–20mA HART® valve positioners with line fault detection

The MTLx546 accepts a 4/20mA floating signal from a safe-area controller to drive a current/pressure converter (or any other load up to 800Ω) in a hazardous area. For HART valve positioners, the module also permits bi-directional transmission of digital communication signals. Process controllers with a readback facility can detect open or short circuits in the field wiring: if these occur, the current taken into the terminals drops to a preset level. The MTL4546C and the MTLx546Y are very similar to the MTLx546 except that they provide open circuit detection only

(i.e. no short-circuit detection).
