2 Product Specifications
2.1 Function
Isolated barriers are used to protect intrinsically safe circuits in explosive areas.
In addition to the required current, voltage and power limitation, the isolated barriers have
a galvanic isolation between the field circuit and the controller.
The H-System isolated barriers are mounted on termination boards. Pre-wiring is possible
on termination boards. To close the signal circuit, the isolated barriers are simply plugged in.
The isolated barriers can be replaced during live operation when the wiring is connected.
Figure 2.1 Generic H-System termination board with isolated barriers
Generic and control-system specific termination boards are available in the H-System.
Termination boards can be adapted to specific input/output requirements.
These requirements can be implemented via
•Various connecting plugs to the controller
•Various terminals to the field device
•A large selection of isolated barriers

H-System – Isolated Barriers and Termination Boards
Product Specifications
2.2 Isolated Barriers
H-System isolated barriers cover all functions and the interoperability of the H-System.
The pin assignment and terminal designations are consistent for all termination boards.
Each H-System isolated barrier can therefore be mounted in each termination board slot.
The termination board can be coded together with the isolated barriers. This prevents
the isolated barriers being mixed up on the termination board. The safety-relevant data
for the connected field devices is backed up.
Figure 2.2 HiC device housing (12.5 mm)
Transparent Front Flap
The isolated barriers have a transparent front flap.

2.3 Termination Boards
Termination boards form the wiring level for field and control signals. The isolated barriers
are mounted on termination boards. The isolated barriers are connected with the field
and control side via the termination boards. Once the isolated barrier is mounted,
the signal circuit between the field and control side is closed.

2.3.1 Connection Options
A variety of termination boards is available with different methods of connecting to the field
and control side. Please refer to the documentation for the respective device for the specific
connection layout.
Connecting the Field Side
The field devices can be connected to the termination board with the following connection
options:
Screw terminals

Spring terminals
Figure 2.10 Connection example: field-side spring terminals
Connecting the power supply and Fault Indication Output
Isolated barriers
The isolated barriers are supplied via the termination board. The isolated barriers are therefore
attached to the termination board.
Termination boards
The termination boards are supplied via pluggable screw terminals or spring terminals.
The supply voltage range depends on
•The values used for the isolated barriers
•The voltage drop of the decoupling diodes on the termination board

3 Mounting and Installation
3.1 Termination Board Mounting
Danger!
Explosion hazard from damaged electronic components
Premature wear of electronic components in a device that was previously used in a general
electrical installation can cause sparks that can ignite the surrounding potentially explosive
atmosphere.
Never install devices that have already been operated in general electrical installations
in electrical installations used in combination with hazardous areas!
Danger!
Explosion hazard from pollution
An excessively polluted surface of the device can become conductive and consequently ignite
a surrounding potentially explosive atmosphere.
Ensure that you install the device only in environments with a pollution degree 2 or better
according to IEC/EN 60664–1.
Warning!
Risk of short circuit
Working on live parts can cause injuries and can compromise the function and the electrical
safety of the device.
•Before working on the device, always disconnect the supply voltage.
•Connect the device to the supply voltage only after completion of the work.
