Intrinsic safety barriers are the core of Pepperl+Fuchs' product portfolio. We offer the widest selection of products for
protection of electrical signals located in hazardous areas. These intrinsic safety modules combine the energy limiting
features of a zener barrier with galvanic isolation. Pepperl+Fuchs offers systems for different applications and mountings.

Zener barriers provide cost saving Ex-protection for various applications in process automation systems. The amount of energy
transferred to the hazardous location is limited to a safe level incapable of igniting the explosive atmosphere. Pepperl+Fuchs
offers a wide product portfolio of housing and connection styles, which include DIN rail, termination board mounted, and
accessories for each application.

With the variety of process control systems available, it is often necessary to convert an input signal into a format that the system
will accept. Signal conditioners take signals from an assortment of field instruments such as thermocouples and RTDs, and convert
those signals into any of several standard instrument signals (1…5V, 4…20 mA, etc.).
Signal conditioners are also beneficial to the accurate transfer of these signals, isolation and the elimination of ground loops.

FOUNDATION fieldbus H1 and PROFIBUS PA link field instrumentation to any process plant. Fieldbus provides seamless data communication
between the plant and control system while supplying power to all field devices.
Fieldbus topologies fit the demands of modern process industries. The
High-Power Trunk approach provides plenty of energy and the flexibility you expect for your process.
Make the High-Power Trunk your choice of fieldbus technology for FOUNDATION fieldbus H1 and PROFIBUS PA

Our modular Remote I/O systems - RPI, LB and FB - are the cost-effective connection of your field signals in the hazardous and the safe
areas to your process control system via the fieldbus. A variety of gateways are available for the connection to different fieldbusses.
Free combinable I/O modules and high modularity offers cost-saving installations. The systems are characterized by high functionality
and simple handling.

HART Interface Solutions from Pepperl+Fuchs consist of two HART Multiplexer Systems for multiple
signal loops and a HART Loop Converter for single loop applications. The Multiplexer is used to connect HART field devices to
Asset Management Systems like AMS™ Suite: Intelligent Device Mananger from Emerson Process Management. At the heart of
HART Interface Solution (HIS), the HART Multiplexer acts like a gateway device, routing communications between the
maintenance workstation PC and the HART field devices.

Today, level measurement technology is the basis for management and process control in the chemical, petrochemical, environmental
and other related industries. Our comprehensive program enables us to help you solve your particular measurement and control
problems and to detect the precise level of any medium, under a wide range of conditions.

CorrTran MV is the first 2-wire, 4mA … 20mA HART transmitter that evaluates general corrosion and localized (pitting) corrosion, as well
as conductivity, in real-time. Meant to take corrosion control out of the laboratory and into everyday process control, CorrTran MV
is a revolutionary approach to corrosion detection and corrosion prevention. Unlike the traditional corrosion coupon method that
established an average corrosion rate over time, CorrTran MV can monitor corrosion on-line and in real-time rather than in a
historical analysis method that misses the possibility of a process to corrosion correlation.

An alarm system is used in the separator to detect the volume of the light liquid and/or the maximum level of a liquid. This ensures
the safe and economic operation of separators for light liquids, also known as oil and petrol separators. The requirements for
this type of separator systems has been defined in the European standard EN 858-1. It is a condition for the CE mark and defines
the criteria for a device raising an alarm if the light liquid or liquid waste level is too high or the liquid waste level is too low.
