With the MTLx501-SR, a fail-safe switch/proximity detector
 
located in the hazardous area can control an isolated fail-safe   

 
electronic output. The MTLx501-SR also provides relay alarm contacts  
to signal line-fault conditions. The MTLx501-SR is for use with approved
fail-safe sensors in loops that require operation up to SIL3 according to
 
the functional safety standard IEC 61508.

DETECTOR INTERFACE




1-channel with LFD andphase reversal 



 







 



The MTL4504 enables a safearea load to be controlled, through a   


relay, by a proximity detector or switch located in a hazardous area.
Line faults are signalled through a separate relay and indicated on   


the top of the module. MTBF information for the LFD relay is available 



   


    
from MTL to allow the failure rate for the LFD relay to be calculated

when used in the critical path with the output relay for safety critical 
applications. Switches are provided to select phase reversal and to
enable the line fault detection.

The MTLx524 enables an on/off device in a hazardous area to be 

controlled by a volt-free contact or logic signal in the safe area. It can 
 
drive loads such as solenoids, alarms, LEDs and other low power  

devices that are certified as intrinsically safe or are classified as non-  

energy storing simple apparatus.   
 
 
 
The MTL4524 allows a second safe-area switch or logic signal to be 
connected enabling the output to be disabled to permit, for example, a 
safety system to override a control signal.
The MTL5524 has its phase reversed by connecting a wire link between MTL5524

MTL4524S Hazardous area Safe area

SOLENOID/ALARM DRIVER  


  
 
switch operated with 24V override, IIC 

  
 

The MTL4524S enables an on/off device in a hazardous area to be  

controlled by a volt-free contact or a floating logic signal in the safe 
 

area. It can drive loads such as solenoids, alarms, LEDs and other low  
power devices that are certified as intrinsically safe or are classified  

as non-energy storing simple apparatus. By connecting a second   
 
 
safe-area voltage, the output can be disabled to permit, for example, a  

safety system to override a control signal.

monitoring, testing and tagging for all thermocouple types and 2-, 3-
or 4-wire RTDs. (For thermocouple applications the HAZ-CJC plug on
terminals 13 includes an integral CJC sensor). Configuration is carried  
 
out using a personal computer. A single alarm output is provided and
 
may be configured for high or low process alarm or to provide notice of

safe-area loads. Software selectable features include linearisation 
 
  

for standard thermocouple types, ranging, monitoring, testing and
tagging. Configuration is carried out using a personal computer. The
hazardousarea connections include coldjunction compensation

for low-level signals  
 



The MTLx581 takes a low-level dc signal from a voltage source in a   
hazardous area, isolates it, and passes it to a receiving instrument 
 
 
located in the safe area. The module is intended for use with     
 

  
thermocouples utilising external cold-junction compensation. A switch    
enables or disables the safety drive in the event of thermocouple  

burnout or cable breakage; a second switch permits the selection of 
upscale or downscale operation as appropriate.

MTL5582

MTL5582 Hazardous area Safe area

RESISTANCE ISOLATOR
to repeat RTD signals



  
 
The MTL5582 connects to a 2-, 3-, or 4-wire resistance temperature 
  
device (RTD) or other resistance located in a hazardous area, isolates 
 

it and repeats the resistance to a monitoring system in the safe area.   
The module is intended typically (but not exclusively) for use with
 
Pt100 3-wire RTDs. Switches enable selection of 2-, 3-, or 4-wire RTD
 
connection. The MTL5582 should be considered as an alternative, non- 
configurable MTL5575, for use in RTD applications where a resistance
input is preferred or needed instead of 4/20mA. The design is notable
for its ease of use and repeatability. The number of wires which can
be connected on the safe-area side of the unit is independent of the
number of wires which can be connected on the hazardous-area side.
