Description

IDS XSeries RS485 Key Bus Isolator

Introducing the IDS XSeries RS485 Key Bus Isolator (860-06-0557), a pivotal component that revolutionizes the way you connect and power key-bus peripherals in complex installations. This isolator is engineered to offer enhanced protection, optical isolation, and range extension for your key-bus, ensuring seamless functionality and safeguarding your security system.

The IDS XSeries RS485 Key Bus Isolator is specifically designed for installations where the use of different AC points or different electrical phases is a necessity. It serves as a crucial link in connecting multiple power supplies to key-bus peripherals, simplifying complex setups and ensuring the optimal performance of your security and automation systems.

One of the standout features of this isolator is its ability to protect peripherals from surges on the key-bus caused by “ground loops.” Ground loops are a common source of interference and can disrupt the operation of connected devices. With the isolator in place, these surges are mitigated, providing stable and uninterrupted performance for your key-bus peripherals.

The IDS XSeries RS485 Key Bus Isolator offers 1kV optical isolation, which is essential for preventing voltage differences between different parts of your electrical system. This isolation ensures that your peripherals are shielded from potential electrical disturbances, enhancing their longevity and reliability.

Additionally, this isolator is instrumental in extending the range of key-bus signals. It ensures that your security and automation functions operate seamlessly, even when the key-bus cable needs to cover longer distances.

The use of the Bus Isolator is recommended in several scenarios:

1. When the control panel power supply is not the sole power source for peripherals connected to a key-bus.
2. When the key-bus cable exceeds 100 meters in length.
3. When the key-bus cable runs outdoors, where it may be exposed to environmental factors.
4. When the key-bus cable runs in a conduit alongside other electrical cables, increasing the risk of interference.

In these situations, the IDS XSeries RS485 Key Bus Isolator becomes an indispensable component for maintaining the integrity and reliability of your security and automation systems.

Elevate the functionality and protection of your key-bus peripherals with the IDS XSeries RS485 Key Bus Isolator (860-06-0557). Invest in this essential component to ensure the seamless operation and extended life of your security and automation systems. Experience the peace of mind that comes with a reliable and robust isolator, purpose-built for complex installations.
