The latest addition to the MCR isolation amplifier series from Phoenix Contact is the MCR-FL-C-UI-2UI-DCI signal multiplier for standard analog signals. It is used for duplicating and electrically isolating (0(4) to 20 mA, 0 to 10 mA, 0(1) to 5 V, and 0 to 10 V) standard analog signals.
Module inputs, outputs and the power supply are electrically isolated from one another (4-way isolation). This allows the modules to be used both on-site and close to the controller for electrical isolation, signal conversion, and amplification. It means the converter can also bridge high working resistances on the transmission route. DIP-switches enable transfer of behaviour calibration. It is not necessary to make zero/span potentiometer adjustments, since the module has been pre-calibrated for all signal combinations. The signal multiplier's configurability simultaneously reduces storage costs and increases availability.
