The 2-wire temperature transmitter MTP300i-SIL has been designed for the operation of intrinsically safe thermocouple circuits installed in the Ex area. The TC input is equipped with a Pt100 sensor for the cold-junction compensation. The TC transmitter must be intrinsically safe supplied by a repeater power supply or ZENER barrier. The thermocouple signal is galvanic isolated. The device can be installed in zone 1 or 2 with the “n” (IEC/EN 60079-15) protection type.
