Galvanic isolator

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

Extronics has launched iSOLATE500, which is said to be the world’s first radio frequency galvanic isolator for hazardous areas.

MD John Hartley says: “iSOLATE500 enables the rapid deployment of more effective wireless
networks within hazardous process environments. Enabling the use of standard, off the shelf
hardware, it also makes networks easier to install and support, providing an effective barrier to
prevent sparking and eliminate any danger of explosions.”

iSOLATE500 is fully ATEX and IECEx accredited and allows standard wireless equipment to be
deployed without requiring costly assessment by notified bodies. It blocks all known faults including
AC/DC and hazardous transients making any RF output intrinsically safe.
