SMART Safety Barrier FBR74 Series

This FBR74 isolated barrier is used for intrinsic safety applications.
The device supplies 2-wire and 3-wire SMART transmitters in a hazardous area, and can also be used with 2-wire smart current sources or universal temperature sensor input.
It transfers the analog input signal to the safe area as an isolated current value.
Digital signals may be superimposed on the input signal in the hazardous or safe area and are transferred bi-directionally.
If the HART communication resistance in the loop is too low, the internal resistance of 250 Ω between terminals 32 and 33 can be used.
Test sockets for the connection of HART communicators are integrated into the terminals of the device.

• 1/2 channel isolator barrier
• 24VDC supply (Terminal or Power Rail)
• 2- or 3-wire source or sink current input
• Universal temperature sensor input
• Single or dual current output
• Fully configurable via HART protocol
• 4-way galvanic isolation implementation between supply/input/output#1/output#2
• HART signal transfer to smart devices in hazardous area bi-directionally
• Suitable for the following SMART devices: ABB, Endress+Hauser, Emerson, Fuji, Smar , VEGA, …

• FBR74 is a Hart compatible Isolator Barrier which can supply a transmitter in hazardous area and transfer its output signal to safe area. According to variety in input signal types and driving up to two current output signals, this device can be used in any analog signal conversion applications.
• FBR74 Is fully Hart compatible and Hart configurable. In case of smart device connected as input signal, device operates as Hart Bridge and operator can communicate with hazardous located smart device from hart communicator located in safe area. In case of universal temperature input type, device operates as smart transmitter and operator can configure it via Hart protocol.
• FBR74 Provides excellent flexibility, low storage and installation costs. The high reliability ensures a safe system operation and low maintenance costs.
