WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
WARNING: EXPLOSION RISK
Do not connect or disconnect equipment while the circuit is live or unless the area is
known to be free of ignitable concentrations or equivalent
AVERTISSEMENT - RISQUE D’EXPLOSION
Ne pas connecter ou déconnecter l’équipement alors qu’il est sous tension, sauf si
l’environnement est exempt de concentrations inflammables ou équivalente
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance must be carried out only by qualified personnel. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury.
CAUTION: RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE
Most electronic equipment is influenced by Radio Frequency Interference. Caution
should be exercised with regard to the use of portable communications equipment
around such equipment. Signs should be posted in the vicinity of the equipment
cautioning against the use of portable communications equipment.
CAUTION:
The module PCBs contains static sensitive components. Static handling precautions
must be observed. DO NOT touch exposed connector pins or attempt to dismantle a
module.

1. Description
Figure 1 T8833 Layout
The Trusted 20 Channel Isolated Analogue Input FTA (T8833), provides termination for a
maximum of 20 input channels from various types of field devices which generate a current
loop signal. When used with a Trusted TMR Isolated Analogue Input Module (T8433) each of
the inputs is loop powered and individually isolated. Figure 2 below shows the configuration
of a single channel.
Figure 2 Single Channel Schematic
The FTA is configured so that the 4‐20 mA field current loop signal connects to TB1 A and
the loop return connects to TB1 B. The current loop signal is then converted into a voltage
by the circuit in Figure 2. This voltage is split into a 7.5 Vdc low current power supply to
power the isolation amplifiers on the input module (VPOWER) and the precision 0‐2 V
current sense signal (VSENSE) connected to the input module. Both of these voltages are
referenced to (COMMON).
This means that input module operates on the loop power of the field devices. This way
each field device is isolated from the other devices and from ground.

The connector linking the 20 channels on the input module to the FTA is terminated at
CON1 which is a 96‐way socket. A row of screw terminal connectors (TB1) are used to
connect the field wiring.
Unused inputs should be terminated by wiring a 24 V supply via a resistor (2K or 2K2) to the
A terminal and wiring the B terminal to the associated zero volts.
