Product details

Isolation and environment

The BMEAHO0412C: Channels are isolated from each other at 1000 V DC and from ground and the bus at 1400 V DC — you can drive separate loops without common-mode headaches. The module carries conformal coating and is rated for gas (Gx, 3C4), dust (3S4), salt (level 2), and mold (3B2) resistance per ISA and IEC. It also holds Class I Division 2 hazardous location approval.

The module includes broken wire detection and supports point-to-point topology. It complies with IEC 61131-2, UL 61010-2-201, CSA C22.2 No 61010-2-201, IACS, and IEC 61850-3 (location G). ATEX directive 2014/34/EU is covered.

Termination is via a 20-way Telefast terminal block. Load impedance is 600 Ω for 0-20 mA range (570 Ω for 0-21 mA). Temperature drift is 45 ppm/°C.
