Providing a 16.5 V feed voltage, the device is suitable for most industry-standard loop-powered transmitters or two-wire sensors. The galvanically isolated active current output supports a maximum load of 500 ohm at 20mA. With the power supply also galvanically isolated, there are no problems caused by channel-to-channel coupling through the power supply.

The BL 560 is CE-compliant, UL-certified and Knick provides a three-year warranty. Strictly concentrating on basic functions, Knick has tailored BasicLine devices to mechanical engineering companies that need precise and reliable yet cost-optimised isolators for large-scale applications. Features include an attractive price scheme, a high level of manufacturing quality and precision, as well as complete galvanic isolation.

BasicLine comprises transducers for all major control cabinet requirements: current, voltage, or temperature measurement, conversion of standard signals or measured values, signal isolation, and set-point monitoring. Knick believes this product range from a one-stop provider has various benefits for customers: consistent documentation of specifications and certifications, and a competent, reliable partner for all requirements involved in installation and operation. For crucial applications that require increased protection, extended functionalities, or customisation, Knick supplies the ProLine series of high-end isolation amplifiers.
