Application Notes

EAP-030005

At start up of our control system, we can detect signal influences between different instruments. Is there a simple solution for this?

This problem can be resolved by installing a self-powered loop isolator (M-System model: M2SN) into your existing loop. Since this particular isolator does not require an external power source, it is not necessary for you to run power to the location or install fuses. In addition, the size of the unit can be minimized due to the lack of an on-board power supply, and subsequent cost can be reduced. In other words, this becomes an inexpensive, space-saving isolation solution.

M-System has various types of self-powered isolators to choose from depending on space constraints and delivery need. For instance, if you need a space-saving type, the Model M2SN is about 1/2 the size of the well-known M-UNIT series equivalent. There are DIN terminal connection types as well as rack mount types that are available.

M-System has a flexible solution to meet your specific application and requirements. Consult our MSS Engineering Data Book for specifications.
