PBT Display Unit
6-way 4-20mA

Image
The PBT Display Unit provides a cost-effective way to read the 4-20mA outputs of analogue plummer block temperature sensors (PBTS) as a value in degrees centigrade. Up to 6 PBTS devices can be connected to a PBT Display Unit by routing the 2-core cable for each PBTS through the PBT Display Unit. The operator uses a springloaded toggle switch to select one PBTS channel at a time, and the display will show the temperature of the currently selected PBTS.
KEY FEATURES:
  • Up to 6 PBTS devices, 2-wire 4-20mA
  • Scaled for 0 – 100°C
  • Has no influence on the output of the PBTS devices Isolated 4-20mA input
  • Wide supply voltage range 100 – 240VAC
FUNCTIONALITY:

Please see diagram below for operation detail. Only one channel is shown for clarity.

The channel selecting switches has a spring return which ensures the PBTS is not connected to the display unit unless actuated manually.

In the resting position, the signal is routed directly to the 4-20mA input on the external controller.

Only one channel can be selected at a time. Selecting a channel will connect the signal to loop through the isolator before returning to the 4-20mA input on the controller.

The display unit converts the output signal from the isolator into a temperature reading.
