Design and Function 5
Comply with the safety- and risk instructions of the ExMFE5
input boards!
4.1 General Safety Instructions (p. 23)
6.1 Line Connection (p. 45)
The process board ExMFE5 is an “associated electrical
equi
pment” according to EN50020, which provides five
intrinsically safe input circuits of the category [Ex ib Gb] II C:
• Three NAMUR inputs (Z1+/Z1-, Z2+/Z2-, Z3+/Z3-) for
signals, LF pulses and HF pulses.
As an alternative, the first channel is suitable for
connecting an encoder index.
• A resistance input in 4-wire technology (I+/U+/U-/I-).
• An analog current input 4 … 20mA (P+/P-), alter-
natively usable as a HART interface.
