Trip amplifiers
Trip amplifiers provide voltage free relay contacts that change state when a monitored process signal passes an adjustable set-point.
Select from:-- Single-point Trip Amp
- Loop-powered Trip Amp
- Dual Trip Amp, 2 Set-points
- Indicating Trip Amplifier, 3 Set-points
Typical trip amplifier applications
- - Limit alarm for detection of High and Low alarm conditions
- - With an input from a level sensor, provide tank level control and pump dry-running protection.
- - With an input from a flow sensor and cycling on-off timer, control the position of a penstock or motorised valve to maintain a fixed flow rate.
- - With an input from a temperature or pressure transducer; start a process at one set point, with shut down if the high point is reached.
- - With an input signal from a pH monitor; provide control of a dosing pump.
