35-6 Industrial Communication Systems
e majority of today’s FBPS have galvanic isolation between the eldbus communication module
to
the
host
and
the
eld
segment
where
the
instruments
are
installed
as
this
prevents
disturbances
and
noises
from
the
eld
or
host
system
and
the
bulk
power
supply,
propagating
from
one
system
to
another;
thus,
minimizing the risk of damage to the host I/O card.
FBPS
are designed for a range of conditions, and as a result, the power conditioner may have
voltage
output
between
12
and
28
V
and
80–500
mA.
e
