Intrinsic Safety Interface Units - Eaton MTL 5500 Series


The MTL5500 Series is the latest generation of MTL intrinsic safety isolators designed to meet the needs of the intrinsic safety (IS) interface market for application focussed projects, from single instrument loops to fully equipped cabinets. Incorporating advanced circuit design and innovative isolating transformer construction these isolators offer explosion protection and help protect electrical signals in hazardous areas ensuring a safe working environment.

DIN-rail mounting and plug-in signal and power connectors simplify installation and maintenance. These IS units are powered from a 20 to 35 V dc supply voltage, or, in some cases, from the signal itself.

The compact 16mm wide design reduces weight and gives a cost-effective high packing density and reduction in power consumption. A wide range of module options includes both single and multiple channel isolation barrier devices. They build on the success of the MTL5000 series to bring the benefits of galvanic isolators with exceptional design and reliability.,II (I) GD (Ex ia) IIC,IECEx, ATEX (Baseefa) FM, CSA

Eaton MTL Zener Barrier, 14mA, 10.5 V DC - MTL5500 Series - MTL5516C


Need to protect your electrical signals in hazardous areas? This zener barrier from Eaton's MTL range is an intrinsic safety isolator that safeguards your equipment and prevents injury by diverting excess power supplies that can cause sparks and overheating. It's ideal for applications ranging from single instrument loops to fully equipped cabinets. The advanced circuit design and innovative isolating transformer offer explosion and electrical protection to enhance safety.

Features & Benefits


• Compact 16mm-wide design for a lightweight unit that won't add strain to your setup
• DIN rail mounting capability enables you to quickly secure the unit by clamping it onto the rail
• Designed for safe use in explosive environments

How do I know if something is intrinsically safe?


An intrinsically safe system will have full documentation of all the components and wiring it uses. This equipment requires an inspection after installation and also periodic follow-up inspections during the lifespan of the application.

What is a zener diode?


A zener diode is a silicon semiconductor that establishes current flow in a forward or reverse direction. When a specific voltage is reached, it reverses the current to protect equipment.
