  • Hazardous Locations: Certified for ATEX Zone 2 (IIC) hazardous areas when paired with approved terminal boards, enabling safe temperature monitoring in explosive gas environments.

Functional Overview

The IS220PRTDH1A functions as the dedicated temperature data acquisition hub within the Mark VIe system. It receives resistance signals from RTD sensors via terminal boards, converts them to high-resolution digital temperature values using a 14-bit ADC, and compensates for lead resistance to ensure accuracy. Processed temperature data is transmitted to the main Mark VIe controller via dual redundant IONet ports for real-time monitoring, alarm generation, and control actions. Onboard diagnostics continuously monitor sensor and channel health, while LED indicators provide immediate operational visibility. The pack’s compact, rugged design enables easy installation in standard Mark VIe I/O cabinets and reliable operation in the harshest industrial conditions.
