Description
The galvanic isolators are active protective interface assemblies to
isolate intrinsically safe circuits from non intrinsically safe circuits to
worldwide standards. Galvanic isolators offer economical solutions
for instrumentation and control systems in hazardous locations.
Unlike zener diode barriers, galvanic isolators do not require
grounding.
Allen-Bradley’s galvanic isolators provide 1500 volt isolation
between hazardous area and non hazardous area terminals and 500
volt isolation between input/output and external power terminals.
DIP switches provide convenient programming for output or
diagnostic functions. Multiple LEDs allow easy visual indication of
module and circuit status.
Wiring for intrinsically safe systems must be identified as such
through the use of light blue jacketing and/or through appropriate
labels. Such labels are required by NEC Article 504 and ANSI/ISA
RP-12.6 to be placed at no more than 25 foot intervals. When
installing intrinsically safe equipment the user should refer to all
relevant national standards and/or those standards set forth by the
“authority having jurisdiction” at the installation site.
