PR Electronics 3118 Bipolar Isolated Converter / Splitter is a versatile and reliable device designed for the isolation, conversion, and splitting of standard bipolar analog process signals into two individual unipolar analog signals. With 4-port isolation, this unit provides surge suppression, protecting control systems from transients and noise, while effectively eliminating ground loops and facilitating the measurement of floating signals.

Applications

  • Signal Conversion and Splitting: Converts and splits standard bipolar analog process signals into two individual unipolar analog signals, ensuring precise and interference-free transmission.
  • Ground Loop Elimination: Eliminates ground loops, enhancing the accuracy and stability of signal measurements.
  • Floating Signal Measurement: Ideal for measuring floating signals, ensuring reliable system performance.
  • Industrial Compatibility: Suitable for mounting in Safe areas, Zone 2, Cl. 1 Div 2 areas, and marine applications, ensuring broad applicability.
  • Configurable Analog Output: 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 Power Supply: Operates with a 24 VDC (±30%) supply via power rail or connectors.
  • High Conversion Accuracy: Provides excellent conversion accuracy, better than 0.05% of the selected range.
  • Operation Status Indicator: A green front LED indicates the operational status of the device.
  • Overvoltage and Polarity Protection: All terminals are protected against overvoltage and polarity errors, ensuring long-term reliability.
  • EMC Performance: Meets NAMUR NE21 recommendations, ensuring top measurement performance in harsh EMC environments.
  • High Galvanic Isolation: Features high galvanic isolation of 2.5 kVAC for robust signal separation.
  • Fast Response Time: Offers a fast input-to-output response time of less than 7 ms, with bandwidth damping (10 Hz) possible via DIP-switch.
  • Signal/Noise Ratio: Ensures an excellent signal-to-noise ratio greater than 60 dB.
  • Low Power Consumption: Allows DIN rail mounting without the need for an air gap, thanks to very low power consumption.
  • Wide Temperature Range: Operates in a wide temperature range of -25 to +70°C, making it suitable for various environments.

Mounting / Installation / Programming

  • Easy Configuration: Simple configuration of factory-calibrated measurement ranges via DIP-switches for quick and hassle-free setup.
