MTL ICC300 SERIES
ICC312 repeater
power supply,
4 to 20mA,
for 2-wire
transmitters
with dual outputs
Three-port isolation
between inputs, outputs
and power supply
* Provides two outputs from
one 4 to 20mA transmitter
* Line-fault detection
feature provides alarm
facilities
* Transfer accuracy better
than 0.1% of span
* 20 to 35V dc power
supplies
* T- or G-section DIN-rail
mounting
The ICC312 is an independently powered isolator which provides both a fully isolated dc
supply for energising a two-wire transmitter (or other 4 to 20mA current source) while also
transferring the transmitter current to two separate isolated output circuits driving loads up to
1k. Line-fault detection facilities (also isolated) are provided by an open collector which can
be used to activate an alarm. When the input cable is broken, no current flows into terminal 8
and the line-fault detection (LFD) output is OFF. When a current greater than 1mA flows in the
input, then LFD output is ON. Power supply required is 20 to 35V dc.
