In chemical production environments, sensitive level or pressure transmitters often sit near high-power mixers and pumps that generate electrical noise. The MACX MCR-SL-2I-2I-ILP-SP provides clean isolation for these 0/4-20 mA signals, preventing ground loops and protecting control systems from interference. Its robust 5 kV isolation and SIL 3 safety rating ensure dependable monitoring of critical dosing and mixing processes. This allows operators to maintain product quality while reducing the risk of downtime caused by false readings or electrical disturbances.
Large machinery such as rolling mills or presses requires constant monitoring to detect early signs of mechanical wear. Vibration sensors generate analog current signals, but these signals are easily affected by electromagnetic fields from nearby high-voltage equipment. By routing the sensor outputs through the MACX isolator, plants achieve accurate and stable readings with minimal distortion. Its rapid 5 ms response ensures abnormal vibrations are detected in time to prevent equipment failures. The loop-powered design also simplifies cabinet wiring in already crowded electrical rooms.
Flow transmitters in refineries and offshore platforms are often installed in areas classified as hazardous. The MACX MCR-SL-2I-2I-ILP-SP, with international approvals for explosive zones, offers a secure solution for isolating sensor signals before they reach the control room. Its rugged build and wide operating temperature range guarantee reliable operation under extreme conditions, from hot desert pipelines to offshore rigs. By ensuring precise current loop transfer without external power supplies, it reduces complexity while supporting safe and continuous production in critical oil and gas processes.
Water treatment plants must constantly track pressure, flow, and chemical dosing to meet safety and compliance standards. With two independent channels, this isolator can handle redundant sensor loops, ensuring that one signal remains accurate even if another line develops interference. The device’s extremely low transmission error keeps readings consistent, allowing operators to trust their monitoring data. By breaking ground loops and preventing noise from pumps or motors, the isolator safeguards process integrity. Its compact DIN-rail housing also saves valuable panel space in control rooms.
