By way of the detachable front programming unit - 4501 - the new modules can be programmed quickly and easily to suit the specific application.
The PReasy series can be configured for all types of standard industrial measuring signals such as RTD, TC, Ohm, mA and V.
Depending on the desired output function, the customer can choose between the 4114 with analogue output, the 4131 with 2 relays or the 4116 with analogue output and 2 relays.

Feature-packed large screen videographic recorder
The new ABB large screen InformIT SM3000 multipoint videographic recorder offers one of the widest range of security, recording and display features available in a single unit
All the modules feature a universal power supply of 24-250 VDC and 24-230 VAC.
The 4100 series is easily configured by way of the elegantly designed, detachable display front 4501.
The customer is guided through all the configuration steps by simple and explanatory help texts.
When mounted in the process, the display front can be used for signal visualisation, but the modules can also function without the display front.
Through the programming panel, the user gains access to a host of interesting functions eg sophisticated relay settings, process calibration, display settings, sensor error action and much more.
When the display front 4501 is mounted on modules in the process, the customer can obtain information on process value, output value and relay state in 7 different languages.
Our new transmitter range has been designed in accordance with the PR Electronics strict demands for safety at all levels.
The modules feature 2.3 kVAC isolation on all ports and comply with NAMUR NE43 (sensor error), NE21 (EMC), the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and UL 508.
The 4116 unit has been design for application in SIL 2 circuits.
The 4131 and 4116 come with 2 relays, which can be configured independently of one another for surveillance of measured variables such as flow, level, temperature, speed or whichever measurement signal the input reflects.
The relays can be set up as single trip amplifiers, or with a window function, sensor error detection and much more.
In units featuring an analogue output, sensor error action on the output can be chosen freely.
Owing to the elegant front programming unit, the new 4100-series has no need for any PCs, DIP-switches and jumpers - and still offers the user full flexibility.
PR Electronics offers interesting, newly-developed modules in keeping with today's demands for functionality, safety and low price.
