MTL5042 – Advanced Hazardous Area 4-20mA Repeater with HART® Communication Support
Product Description
The MTL5042 is a high-performance isolated repeater designed for hazardous areas. It provides a fully floating DC supply for 2/3-wire 4-20mA transmitters in Zone 0/Div. 1 locations while repeating the signal to safe-area loads. Supports bi-directional HART® communication and major protocols (Honeywell DE, Foxboro, Yokogawa Brain). Ideal for process control applications requiring intrinsic safety and signal integrity.
