Intrinsically Safe Power Supply

The intrinsically safe power supply accepts 24 VDC power and converts it to 12 VDC to power the DeltaV I.S. I/O cards. The number
of I/O cards that can be powered by a single Intrinsically Safe Power Supply depends on the I. S. I/O card type. Optional power supply

LocalBus Isolator
„„ The DeltaV LocalBus Isolator protects the I.S. I/O from fault voltages from AC main power supplies. The LocalBus Isolator also links
intrinsically safe I/O with non-intrinsically-safe I/O. The following table gives the specifications for the DeltaV LocalBus Isolator.

Carriers
All DeltaV I.S. I/O cards are contained in modular 8-wide carriers. Connect the carriers in the most efficient configuration for
your plant. The carriers have multi-pin connectors to ensure that I.S. I/O is never connected to non-I.S. I/O.

Power supplies for I.S. I/O modules using field wiring have their own modular carriers. These carriers connect between
the I/O carriers.

Use a LocalBus isolator to connect I.S. I/O with non-I.S. field wiring. The LocalBus isolator resides on its own carrier.
