Current Output
There are two configurations available for the 4–20 mA current output on J3 port of
the ISIO PCA.
– Intrinsically safe, isolated, loop-powered (default)
– Intrinsically safe, isolated, self-powered
All configurations can drive a 750-ohm maximum load over the full current output
range. The current output is programmable between 3.8 and 20.5 mA. The current
output has a fault low condition of 3.6 mA or less and a fault high condition of 20.8
mA or greater.
J3 is a standard 4–20 mA output with no Fieldbus options. The entity parameters are
as follows:
– Vmax = 35.25 V
– Imax = 200 mA
– Ci = 0 nf
– Li = 0
– Pmax = 0.81 W
The default current output configuration is isolated, loop-powered.
The figures below demonstrate the wiring configurations possible using the J3 ports on
the ISIO PCA.
