Loop Powered 4-20mA Isolator

The TxIsoLoop-1 and TxIsoLoop-2 are 0(4)-20 mA signal isolators with one and two channels respectively. They provide signal protection by electrically isolating the input signal from the output. The 4-20 mA input is measured and an identical isolated signal is produced at the output. Its power is obtained from the 0(4)-20 mA input loop, dropping the need for an external power supply.

Loop powered isolators provide signal protection by electrically isolating the input signal from the output. TxIsoLoop-1 and TxIsoLoop-2 simplify your application and avoid the undesirable ground loops by providing single and dual loop galvanic isolation. The 0/4-20 mA input is measured and an identical isolated signal is reproduced at the output. Within the loop-powered isolator, power is drawn from the 0(4)-20 mA input loop, thus no auxiliary power or an external power supply is needed.
