Hazardous area Safe area MTL5521 FREQUENCY TO CURRENT CONVERTER AND TRIP AMPLIFIER 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 NAMUR Sensor The MTL5521 converts a frequency or rotational speed signal from a proximity detector located in the hazardous area into a 0/4–20mA current signal suitable for driving safe area loads. A display located on the top indicates the frequency. • • • A line fault detect facility detects open and/or short circuits in the field. When a fault is detected the relay de-energises and the yellow LED changes to red.

A relay output is provided, with two configurable set points, allowing monitoring of the input frequency. When the input frequency is within this window the relay is energised and a yellow LED is illuminated. A start-up delay is triggered by a NO contact allowing the system to start up without creating false alarms. • • • • 9 10 Function Namur Sensor +ve Namur Sensor –ve Start up delay +ve Start up delay –ve 0/4–20mA output +ve Speed Monitor Speed Monitor Speed Monitor 0/4–20mA output –ve Supply +ve Supply –ve Power supply 230V ac nominal, 184–264V ac, 48–62Hz (MTL5521-11-230) 115V ac nominal, 98–126V ac, 48–62Hz (MTL5521-11-115) 24V dc nominal, 19–29V dc, <10% ripple (MTL5521-11-24) Power consumption <5VA/5W Isolation 250V rms between input, output and power supply terminals, tested at 2.5kV rms between safe and hazardous terminals Terminals Each terminal will accommodate 2x2.5mm2 conductors Mounting On 35mm (top hat) rail Location of units Safe area Ambient temperature limits Operating temperature –20°C to +60°C Dimensions Height (above rail) 105mm Width 89mm Rail length required 36mm Safety description 13V, 30mA (terminals 5–8) Um = 250V ac DIMENSIONS (mm) EUROPE (EMEA) Tel: +44 (0)1582 723633 Fax: +44 (0)1582 422283 AMERICAS Tel: +1 603 926 0090 Fax: +1 603 926 1899 ASIA PACIFIC Tel: +65 487 7887 Fax: +65 487 7997 E-mail: [email protected] Web site: www.mtl-inst.com 13 14 15 16 9 10 11 12 Display 36 Pwr K1 89 S1 S2 5 6 7 8 1 2 3 4 110 June 2004
