The MTL5516C is a Switch/Proximity Detector Interface enables two safe-area loads to be controlled by a switch or proximity detector located in a hazardous-area. When selected, open or short circuit conditions in the field wiring are detected by the line-fault-detect (LFD) facility and also indicated on the top of the module. Phase reversal for each channel is selected by a switch on the side of the module and output is provided by changeover relay contacts.
Inputs conforming to BS EN60947-5-6:2001 standards for proximity detectors (NAMUR)
