Signal conditioners and measuring transducers ensure interference-free signal transmission in measurement and control technology. In addition, intrinsically safe, SIL-certified signal conditioners and measuring transducers provide explosion protection and ensure the safety of people, the environment, and the system.
The new Ex i versions in the MINI Analog Pro 6.2 mm signal conditioner family provide explosion protection and functional safety in an unrivaled compact design. With space savings of up to 50 percent compared to current solutions, measurement technology signals are reliably processed while at the same time ensuring the protection of people, the environment, and systems. The products are consistently rated to the highest safety level, SIL 3 one out of one. The operating concept and end-to-end digitalization are particularly user-friendly and future-proof.
This innovative development resulted in the products being honored as the Winner of the GIT Security Award and winning Gold in the German Innovation Award competition.

The highly compact MINI Analog Pro signal conditioners and measuring transducers combine intrinsic explosion protection and functional safety up to SIL 3 1oo1 in uniquely compact overall width and installed height. In your application, benefit from the particularly user-friendly design and operating concept, the wide range of configuration options, and end-to-end digitalization.
MINI Analog Pro Ex i signal conditioners have many international Ex approvals for use in all Ex zones and for all substance groups. Furthermore, mining approval, an extended temperature operating range of -40°C to +70°C, and documented requirements for altitude operating ranges of up to 5,000 m enable use in demanding environments.
MINI Analog Pro signal conditioners can handle a range of frequencies and almost any input signal, including NAMUR, mA, and mV. With safe isolation, the devices can transmit signals both from the field to the controller and from the controller to the field without interference. Such signals include, among others, analog standard signals (e.g., 0/4 ... 20 mA), electrical signals, and signals from temperature sensors such as thermocouples and resistance thermometers (e.g., Pt100).
Space-saving, even between the cable ducts: all connection elements are clearly visible and accessible from the front. In addition, plug-in terminal blocks and power bridging with the DIN rail connector facilitate installation. Uninterruptible current signal measurement and a wide range of configuration options simplify commissioning and servicing.
The plug-in MINI Analog Pro gateways enable you to digitalize the measured values (e.g., input 0/4 ... 20 mA) of up to eight signal conditioners, measuring transducers, and measuring transformers in any combination. In addition, the Signal Conditioner App serves you as a digital tool for easy configuration, monitoring, and information. You can also use the app to configure the DIP switches, thereby reducing commissioning time. In addition, digital NFC tagging and rating plates ensure they are fit for the future.
Another digital service for you: simply order your individually configured product using the user-guided web configurator, from a batch quantity of just 1. On request, you will also receive the appropriate factory calibration certificate.
The type test in accordance with NE 95 is carried out by an independent test laboratory. Therefore, the devices conform to the requirements of the process industry both in terms of the technical features and regarding explosion protection, repair, mounting, and device documentation.
The MINI Analog Pro signal conditioner with Ex i approval and functional safety in accordance with SIL 3 in an overall width of just 6.2 mm is truly one of a kind. Process up to 160 signals per meter – ideal for modern, compact systems that are used to store renewable energy, for example.
MACX Analog signal conditioners and measuring transducers provide you with a comprehensive range of solutions for safe electrical isolation and reliable signal conditioning. In intrinsically safe circuits, the Ex i versions provide you with explosion protection in all zones and substance groups. The products were consistently developed for safety applications for IEC/EN 61508 and PL EN ISO 13849 to ensure the safety of people, the environment, and the system.
MACX Analog Ex i signal conditioners and measuring transducers have a wide package of international Ex approvals for use in all Ex zones and for all substance groups. In addition, mining and marine approvals, as well as versions with an extended temperature operating range of -40 to +70°C and documented requirements for altitude operating ranges up to 5,000 m, enable use in demanding environments.
Our MACX Analog Ex signal conditioners and measuring transducers are available for all safety-related applications up to SIL 2 SC 3 or SIL 3. Selected products have PL certification for use in machine building. This applies to both standard applications and explosion protection.
Save space with two-channel versions and signal duplicators with an overall width of just 12.5 mm. The safe separation of inputs and outputs on such a small size enables reliable signal processing.
You can use the versions with a supply voltage of 24 to 230 V AC/DC worldwide in all supply networks, and even if you do not have 24 V DC voltage available to supply the devices.
With NAMUR type approval in accordance with NE 95, MACX Analog signal conditioners, measuring transducers, and measuring transformers meet the requirements of the process industry in terms of the technical characteristics as well as explosion protection, maintenance, installation, and device documentation. The type test in accordance with NE 95 is carried out by an independent test laboratory.
Supply the active 24 V signal conditioners via the connection terminal blocks or use the modular DIN rail connector as a flexible system solution for power bridging. Especially in multi-channel applications, the DIN rail connector simplifies installation, system expansion, and module replacement, even during operation. Additional accessories, such as programming adapters and feed-through terminal blocks, round off the portfolio.
The TBUS DIN rail connector is compatible with the MINI Analog Pro and MACX Analog product families. This enables you to use the following types of power supply:
• Direct feed-in via the device-internal supply input
• Feed-in via a separate power module
• Supply via a system power supply with wide range input
All components of the supply system are mechanically protected against contact in the input and output. The contact elements are located in a robust plastic housing. Alongside coding, the DIN rail connector features an aid for error-free and quick module insertion.
QUINT POWER power supplies are small in size yet they ensure high system availability in the sub 100 W power range. This power supply, which has been developed specifically for MCR technology, enables the signal conditioners to be supplied directly from a 230 V AC supply via the TBUS DIN rail connector. Simply snapped onto the TBUS, it delivers a maximum current of 2.5 A.
Ideal for system extensions and retrofit installations: the Power Rail adapter for the Pepperl+Fuchs K and SC series supply system. The Power Rail adapter enables the MINI Analog Pro and MACX Analog product families to be used as an alternative in existing installations with the Pepperl+Fuchs K and SC series Power Rail. A tight fit on the Power Rail and mechanical coding ensure secure and vibration-resistant contacting. Installation in zones up to Ex zone 2 possible.
The Signal Conditioner App enables you to identify and configure your products more easily than ever before, in addition to monitoring process values. You also have access to module-specific documents, such as packing slips and data sheets. A DIP switch setting aid is available for products with DIP switches. Easy connectivity via NFC (MINI Analog Pro), Bluetooth, or QR code. The app is available free of charge for both Android and Apple iOS smartphones.
