Why Do Signal Conditioners Exist?
Signal conditioners ensure smooth communication between the field device and the
control unit using galvanic isolation
They convert, isolate, split, boost, and step down process signals so field instruments
can interface directly with indicators, recorders, DCS, PLC, and PC-based SCADA
systems

Why do we need Signal Conditioning?
7
Solutions for all common analog signal conditioning requirements
Isolation
Eliminate ground loops and common mode noise
Isolate multiple signals on same power source
Transmission
Eliminate noise and reduce expensive thermocouple/RTD cable when there are long distances between field sensing device and controller
Transmission of data via Hart protocol
Conversion and Amplification
Convert a variety of analog measurement data to a standard current signal (0-10 VDC to 4-20mA, etc.)
Allows for low cost expansion in an established process by utilizing available I/O Modules
Signal splitting
Provides for local monitoring/alarms
Analog Signal Conditioners are PROBLEM SOLVERS!

Tip for: System Architectures / Panel Designers
When using non-isolated 1756 ControlLogix I/O cards (to reduce
overall per I/O price point)
For example: 8 point analog input card1756-IF8 is non-isolated
(cost effective, list price $1160.00) than Isolated 1756-IF8I (costs
more, list price $2170.00)
Consider using 931H isolators (where appropriate) to add isolation to
your circuits (you may only need to provide isolation for select circuits)
Be more cost effective in your quotes/bids!

Intrinsic Safety Definition
An intrinsically safe circuit shall not be capable of causing ignition in normal operation and
fault condition in the surrounding hazardous atmospheres by
Sparks (opening, closing, short circuit, short circuit to earth)
or
High temperature of apparatus and conduits
Intrinsic safety is based on the principle of preventing an effective source of ignition. The
electrical energy is kept below the minimum ignition energy required for each hazardous
area. Safe Area or Division 2, Zone 2

Intrinsic Safety is a method of “prevention” The requirement for design is to limit energy to 50% or less of the Minimum Ignition
Energy (MIE) An IS circuit consists of only 3 elements:
I.S. device (sensor or equipment), associated apparatus (barrier or isolated barrier), and interconnecting wire
Two types of I.S. field devices: Simple apparatus and Complex apparatus
What do you need to remember about IS Technique?
Galvanic Isolation Noise immunity (restoring signal integrity) Signal Conditioning (conversion of specialty signal) Switch amplifiers Easy to install Easy to Maintain
What do you need to remember about IS Barriers / Isolators?
