PR Electronics DIN Rail Mounting

4116 Multi-Functional Signal Conditioner

From PR Electronics, the 4116 Universal transmitters designed for signal isolation, conversion, linearization and amplification of a wide range of input signals. The robust single channel transmitter features a wide range of freely programmable inputs. These include RTD or thermocouple inputs for temperature measurement. Linear resistance, potentiometer and voltage or current including 2-wire transmitters. Outputs include voltage or active current in addition to the 2 x relay outputs with latching functionality. The 4116 universal device offers the user the flexibility to meet the many demands of today’s industrial applications. PR Electronics 4116 transmitter is designed according to strict safety requirements and is therefore suitable for use in SIL 2 installations.

Programming

The 4116 universal transmitters are programmable via the PR 4501 detachable display module (7966890). The 4501 module allows the programming of the vast array of input and output parameters easily and safely. Together with advanced functions including 2 point calibration, process simulation and diagnostics.

With a simple menu and explanatory text the 4501 is extremely straightforward to navigate. Functions are clearly depicted on the 4 line LCD display even in low light conditions. Line 1 shows the input signal, line 2 shows the units, and line 3 shows analogue output or tag number. Line 4 shows the communication and relay status. In addition the 4501 features password protection. Programming access can be blocked by assigning a password which is conveniently saved in the 4116 transmitter. This ensures a high degree of protection is maintained and prevents any unauthorised modifications to the configuration.
