3.2.2
Description
The option WE1 is used for an intrinsically safe interface of load cells or weighing platforms situated in a
hazardous (Ex) area Zone 1 and 21 with PR 5230 installed in a safe area according European directive 94/9/EG
and related harmonized European standards (see also Chapter 18.4).
The unit is designed for weighing applications requiring intrinsically safe interfacing. This is achieved by use of
double provided current and voltage limiters in the supply circuit and voltage limiters in the analogue
elektonic (weighing electronics board) of the PR 5230 with option WE1.
The PR 5230 with option WE1 provides the intrinsically safe interfacing of:
-
1 voltage output for the supply of load cells or weighing platforms situated in Zone 1 or 21,
-
1 measuring voltage input from Zone 1 or 21 and
-
1 sense voltage input from Zone 1 or 21.
