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.
The PSI-MOS products can be used for stand-alone operation or modular designs using multichannel optical star couplers.
Crosswiring for data and power can be implemented using a DIN-rail mounted installation system.
Integrated line diagnostics give feedback on the quality of the fibre-optic connection during the initial setup eliminating the need for calibrating optical lines.
Moreover, an early warning system informs the user when a defined minimum optical power level is reached during operation before the system fails.
With these products the optical range achievable for polymer, HCS and glass fibres has been enhanced.
Every type of installation topology can be realised, including line, star and tree.
In addition the products can be used in redundant structures when greater security is required.
