Eaton MTL | The MTL600
range of digital indicators enable process variables to be displayed
locally in hazardous and general purpose plant areas. A typical example
would be the re-transmission of mass/flow computations from the safe
area, through a suitable MTL IS interface to the indicator in the
hazardous area.
The displays are loop powered from the 4-20mA process signal and
their low voltage drop allows them to be installed in almost any 2-wire,
4–20mA transmitter loop. All units can indicate measured values in a
linear or a square root extraction mode; the latter being used, for
example, to display flow from differential pressure measurement devices
such as orifice plates, Dall tubes, or venturi.
The MTL661 Field mounting unit is housed in a tough aluminium
enclosure, suitable for wall or pipe mounting. For corrosive atmospheres
use the MTL663 - the plastic case provides excellent resistance to
harmful contaminents.
The MTL665 is the panel mounted version and is IP65, IP66, IP67 and NEMA4 rated.
MTL66x IS indicators are classified as ‘non-energy storing’ simple
apparatus so they can be inserted into any IS loop without
recertification.
