MTL Instruments | MTL5575 | Signal Converter
- The MTLx575 converts a low-level dc signal from a temperature sensor mounted in a hazardous area into a 4/20mA current for driving a safe-area load.
- Software-selectable features include linearization, ranging, monitoring, testing, and tagging for all thermocouple types and 2-, 3-, or 4-wire RTDs.
- For thermocouple applications, the HAZ-CJC plug on terminals 1–3 includes an integral CJC sensor.
- Configuration is carried out using a personal computer.
- A single alarm output is provided and may be configured for process alarm or to provide notice of early thermocouple failure.
