Communications isolator makes displays safer
The new BA201 communications isolator has RS232 and RS485 safe area ports enabling multidrop display systems to be constructed.
Indicator refresh rate boosted
The BA326C provides operators with a quick, easy to read indication of magnitude and trend, plus an accurate numerical value in engineering units.
The new ATEX certified flow batch controllers have three galvanically isolated outputs that may be configured as control or status outputs, enabling one, two or even three stage control to be performed.
Up to nine setpoints may be pre-entered and named for easy selection by the operator.
All models accept pulse and 4-20mA inputs and incorporate a square root extractor plus a 16-point adjustable lineariser, making them usable with almost any flow meter.
Text and simple graphics can be displayed in a hazardous area by the recently introduced Beka serial text displays.
Incorporating six pushbuttons and two solid-state outputs, they are low-cost operator interfaces enabling simple machine and process control applications to be performed in hazardous areas.
Also included is the well established range of Beka 4-20mA loop powered indicators, many of which can now be supplied with a loop powered backlight.
For flow application, a wide variety of intrinsically safe rate totalisers with both pulse and analogue inputs are also described, plus intrinsically safe counters, timers and tachometers.
The catalogue also contains many Type nL certified instruments which may be installed in a Zone 2 hazardous area without the need for Zener barriers or galvanic isolators. Request a free brochure from Beka associates ...
