The EATON MTL831C Analog Transmitter is a versatile analog transmitter designed for hazardous area applications, ensuring safe signal transmission from Zone 0 environments to control systems. It converts inputs from thermocouples (THC), millivolt sources, RTDs, or potentiometers into a standardized signal for remote monitoring. As an intrinsically safe device, the EATON MTL831C meets strict safety standards, making it ideal for oil & gas, chemical, and other high-risk industries.
The Programmable Controller Module MTL831C EATON supports up to 16 input channels, accommodating various sensor types, including 2-, 3-, or 4-wire RTDs. Its robust design enables signal and power transmission over a single shielded twisted-pair cable, with a range extending up to 2km. This reduces wiring complexity while maintaining signal integrity in noisy environments. The EATON MTL831C DCS Module Servo system ensures reliable data transfer, even in extreme industrial conditions.
For seamless communication, the MTL831C EATON Fieldbus Networks Multiplexer Transmitter pairs with the MTL838C receiver, which decodes transmitted signals and provides Modbus® serial output. Up to two MTL831C transmitters can connect to a single MTL838C, enhancing system flexibility. This setup is ideal for distributed control systems requiring remote hazardous area monitoring.
When deployed in hazardous locations, the Analog Transmitter EATON MTL831C requires an MTL5553/MTL5053 isolator/power supply in the safe area to protect the data highway. This ensures compliance with intrinsic safety standards, preventing ignition risks. With its rugged construction and advanced signal conditioning, the EATON MTL831C delivers unmatched reliability in critical industrial applications.
