Transducers provide an easy-to-use interface
MCR-SL-PT100 temperature transducers offer a simple, convenient and exceptionally cost-effective method of interfacing Pt100 temperature transducers with instruments and control systems.
By integrating surge protection the availability of the system is increased.
The base terminal incorporates input terminals with power supply bridging, output terminals with disconnects and test points, with the optional surge protection or cold point compensation for thermocouples.
The individual channels are 12.4mm wide and are customised using plug in function modules that offer most of the standard IS isolator functions required.
The two-part IS signal isolators are part of the extensive range of Ex products available from Phoenix Contact which also includes terminals and Zone 2 power supplies.
