3.2. Principle of operation
Area of application
The DT1361 Intrinsically Safe NAMUR / Contact Isolator
is a single channel unit enable one safe area load to be
controlled by a proximity detector or a switch, located in a
potentially explosive area of zone 0 or zone 1.
The instrument galvanic isolates the input, the output and
the power supply. The safe output is a SPDT relay contact.
The DT1361 has a built-in mode-control switch for phase-
reverse control (allows an alarm condition to be signaled for
either state of the sensors), for on / off switch line
monitoring (wire short, wire open). The line fault detection
opens the output in the event of short or open-circuit lines:
intended for use primarily with proximity detectors. It can
also be used with switches made to resemble them
electrically by adding two resistors, or disabling by a switch
if not required.
