FieldBarriers
Group Overview:
FieldBarriers
Explosion protection for Zone 0/ Div. 1 – RD0-FB*
The FieldConnex FieldBarrier is the first fieldbus coupler to implement the High-Power Trunk Concept for Zone 1/ Div. 2. Devices can be mounted in Zone 0/ Div. 1, and are connected one device to each output.
Each output of the FieldBarrier is intrinsically safe. Field instrumentation can be installed in Zone 0/ Div. 1. The FieldBarrier itself is installed in Zone 1/ Div. 2. In addition to short-circuit protection, the FieldBarrier offers galvanic isolation. Live work on the instrument is permitted.
