Standards & more

• Conforms to standards both in office and industrial environments:
  • High noise resistance per EN 61000-6-2
  • Low noise emission per EN 55032:2015 + A1 Cl. B, EN 61000-3-2 & EN 61000-3-3

Overvoltage protection for RS485 ports:
The maximum permissible differential voltage that can affect RS485 transceiver components from the outside is generally limited to values of around ± 12..14V. Voltages that exceed these values will always result in destruction of the interface components.

When using shielded cable, it is unlikely that such high differential voltages will occur, since extreme coupling onto the transmission line expresses itself as a rise in potential on all cable conductors.

When using the isolator on transmission lines outside of buildings or when the cabling conditions are unclear, use of the 66203 Isolator is recommended. This isolator model has built-in overvoltage protection, which limits the maximum occurring differential voltages to a harmless ±9V using fast protection diodes.
