The MACX MCR-EX-SL-RTD-I-NC is an Ex i temperature transducer designed for the conversion of signals from resistance temperature detectors (RTDs). This device transmits a current signal ranging from 0/4 to 20 mA to a load positioned in a safe area, ensuring accurate temperature monitoring in hazardous environments.

It supports various sensor configurations, including 2-, 3-, and 4-wire setups, with a temperature measurement range of -200 °C to 850 °C, contingent on the sensor type used. The transducer has a maximum permissible overall conductor resistance of 50 Ω per cable and can handle input signal ranges from 0 Ω to 2000 Ω, making it suitable for diverse applications.

With dimensions of 12.5 mm in width, 108.1 mm in height, and 113.7 mm in depth, the transducer is designed for DIN rail mounting. It incorporates a screw connection method with a stripping length of 7 mm and accommodates solid and flexible conductors with cross sections ranging from 0.2 mm² to 2.5 mm² (AWG 24 to 14).

The device operates within an ambient temperature range of -20 °C to 60 °C and can be stored or transported at temperatures from -40 °C to 80 °C. It is rated IP20 for protection and certified for noise immunity per EN 61000-6-2.

In terms of safety, the transducer is compliant with multiple standards, including ATEX and IECEx for use in explosive atmospheres, with a maximum output voltage of 6 V and output current of 6.3 mA. The robust design ensures reliability in demanding environments while...
