ABB TEIP11-PS I/P signal converter

Concept

The TEIP11-PS signal converter converts standard electrical signals (e.g. 4 to 20 mA) to 0.2 to 1 bar (3 to 15 psi).

It is therefore the link between electrical/electronic and pneumatic systems.

The signal conversion process is similar to the patented force balancing method.

The TEIP11-PS signal converter is characterized by relatively small dimensions and excellent operational stability in the event of shock and vibration.

The converter can withstand loads of up to 10 g with less than 1% impact on functionality.

The housing units are available in a wide range of models to suit your installation requirements.

For potentially explosive environments, units are available in intrinsically safe operation or in pressure-resistant packages with international approvals for worldwide use.

Both inputs and outputs are available with different ranges of signal conversion.

The unit requires only 1.4 bar (20 psi) compressed air for power.

Rail-Mounted Control Room Enclosure Units

The rail-mounted control room enclosure is the simplest and least expensive version of the I/P signal converter.

It is mounted using a mounting base that is compatible with all commercially available EN rails.

The enclosure with plastic cover is IP 20 rated.

Block-mounted control room housing units

The block-mounted control room housing unit allows the installation of several converters in a small space.

This design enables a central air supply via connection blocks and shut-off valves in the air connectors of the integrated signal converters.

Up to 4 signal converters can be mounted on the connection blocks required for modular installation.

If necessary, 2 or 3 (or up to 4) connection blocks can be interconnected to form a block unit with 4-8-12-16 signal converters.

Individual transducers can be mounted or dismounted during operation by means of shut-off valves.

Field mountable housings

The field mounting housings are suitable for installation on site or in the open air.

The housings can be made of plastic (IP class IP 54), aluminum (IP class IP 65) or stainless steel (IP class IP 65).

The housings are suitable for wall and pipe mounting.

The specially designed signal converters in the plastic housing units can be powered by flammable gas instead of the standard compressed air.
