Description
The MVA, Multi-Variable Analog interface for smart transmitters converts a single
transmitter's digital PV or SV signals into four (4) 1-to-5 volt analog signals.
Each module's output is factory characterized to an accuracy of 0.045%.
In addition to analog outputs, a "smart status" relay output is provided that
is derived directly from the transmitter's digital status.
The MVA provides a cost effective way to interface into analog instrumentation
while utilizing all the advantages of Honeywell's DE digital communications.
The MVA is fully compatible with all single and multi-variable DE transmitters.
It can be used in conjunction with any of the DE control system interfaces.
In addition, handheld communicators may be used with NO disturbances to the analog
outputs or status.
The MVA's compact module design is suitable for DIN rail mounting and can be
conveniently mounted in close proximity to the analog instrumentation.
The MVA operates from a single +24VDC source and is internally short-circuit protected.
All connectors are screw compression type and removable.
Benefits
- Allows mixing of digital and analog instrumentation.
- Expands functionality while maintaining full digital integration.
- Access to all variables.
- Wiring savings associated with multivariable transmitters.
- Increase overall analog accuracy 80%.
- Enables use of Honeywell multivariable transmitters with any analog system.
- Independent transmitter status differentiates a maintentance problem from a process problem.
- Economically extracts PVs and SVs.
- Enables full digital, non-bumping communications for any application.
- Enables Secure stand-alone digital operation.
Safety System Advantages
- The MVA is a cost effective means of integrating digital transmitters with
safety systems.
- The MVA's "smart status" output enhances the speed at which safety
shutdown systems are able to respond by tracking the transmitter's PV/SV status,
device STATUS, DE signal integrity and positive contact output.
- Fully supports forced I/O manual mode for validation testing of safety shutdown system.
Features
- 4 analog outputs (PVs or SVs).
- Independent transmitter status relay output.
- Use with single or multivariable transmitters.
- "Smart status" LED indicator.
- Configurable burnout and forced I/O manual mode action.
- Compatible with 4 or 6 byte DE protocol modes.
- Modular DIN rail mount.
- Test mode.
- CE Mark and CSA
Compatibility
The MVA module is fully compatible with all Honeywell DE products, all 3rd party
DE products, and commercially available "smart" safety barriers.
It carries the CE mark and is CSA approved.
