3. Brief description
The signal isolator SINEAX TI 816 serves to electrically insulate an analogue DC
signal in the range 0...20 mA which depending on version is then converted to a
current or voltage signal (0...20 mA or 0...10 V). It does not require a separate power
supply.

Safety precautions to be
strictly observed are marked
with following symbols in the
operating instructions:
The instrument fulfils all the important requirements and regulations concerning
electromagnetic compatibility EMC and Safety (IEC 1010 resp. EN 61 010). It was
developed and is manufactured and tested in strict accordance with the quality
assurance standard ISO 9001.
4. Versions
There are two versions of the DC signal isolator SINEAX TI 816 available.

1. Read first and then …
The proper and safe operation of the device assumes that
the operating instructions is read carefully and the safety
warnings given in the various Sections
6. Mounting
7. Electrical connections
are observed.
The device should only be handled by appropriately trained
personnel who are familiar with it and authorised to work
in electrical installations.

6. Mounting
The SINEAX TI 816 isolator is suitable for mounting on two different types of
standard rails:
– onto the G-type rail EN 50 035-G32
or
– onto the top-hat rail EN 50 022-35 ×7.5.
Note “Ambient conditions” in Section “5. Technical data” when
determining the place of installation!
Simply clip the signal isolator onto the carrying rail acc. to Fig. 3 or Fig. 4.

7. Electrical connections
Easily accessible screw terminals are provided at the front of the signal isolator
(Fig. 6) which accept wire gauges up to 2.5 mm2(stranded wire) or 4 mm2(non-
stranded wire).
Note that, …
… the data required to perform the electrical insulation task agree
with the data on the nameplate of the SINEAX TI 816 ( input
signal and output signal, see Fig. 5)!
… in the case of isolators with current outputs 0...20 mA, the total
resistance of the external leads (receiver plus leads) does not
exceed the max. burden of 600 Ω! See “output signal”, section “5.
Technical data”!
… in the case of isolators with a voltage output 0...10 V, the external
receiver connected across the output has a sufficiently high
internal resistance RiAin relation to the SINEAX TI 816 output
impedance of 500 Ω! See “Output signal” in Section “5. Technical
data”!
The error due to RiAis:
500 [Ω] · 100
RiA[Ω]
… that input and output cables should be twisted pairs and run as
far as possible away from heavy current cables!

8. Commissioning and maintenance
The device is in operation as soon as the input signal E is connected.
The signal isolator requires no maintenance.
9. Releasing the signal isolator
When dismantling the SINEAX TI 816 …
… from G rails proceed according to Fig. 7. Firstly press the signal isolator upwards
(manipulation 1) and tip it upwards at the same time (manipulation 2).
… from top-hat rails proceed according to Fig. 8. Tip the signal isolator upwards.
