Ultra-thin RS485 Input Isolated Safety Barrier

October 23, 2016 by Jeff Shepard

Mornsun recently released an ultra-thin RS485 input isolated safety barrier, the TD100W-EX-485. This safety barrier supplies isolated dc power to the transmitters from security zone to danger zone, converts the RS-485 digital signal of the danger zone into isolated RS-485 or RS-232 digital signal and transmit them to the security zone, while anti-interference capability of industrial production process control system increases to ensure system stability and reliability.

The TD100W-EX-485 runs on 18- to 36-Vdc input power. And all the power supply, input and output are mutually isolated, which means they can provide isolated 5V, 6V, 8V, 9V and 12V voltages. The safety barrier is connected with RS-485 communication interface device in Zone 0, Zone 1, Zone 2, II A, II B, II C, and hazardous area of T4-T6.

Features of the TD100W-EX-485 include: Input, output and power supply are mutually isolated from each other; Isolation voltage of 2000Vac for 60 seconds; High isolation power supply output; High baud rate up to 56000bps; 12.5mm ultra-thin case; Excellent EMC performance; and high reliability (MTBF >500,000 hours).
