PR 5106 HART Transparent Repeater

The PR 5106 HART Transparent Repeater is a high-performance signal conditioning and isolation device for industrial process automation systems. The 5106, from PR electronics, supports robust HART communication and accurate analog signal transmission. This DIN-rail mountable HART transparent repeater provides reliable galvanic isolation up to 3.75 kVAC across its multiple ports. Thus, the PR 5106 Series ensures safe separation of input, output, as well as supply circuits in demanding environments.

• PR 5106A (Safe Area version)
  • Power supply and signal isolator with 2-way HART communication for 2-wire transmitters.
  • Signal isolator with 2-way HART communication for supplied current transmitters.
  • Signal isolator with fast response time on analog current signals.
• PR 5106B (Ex / I.S. version)
  • Power supply and Intrinsically Safe (I.S.) safety barrier with 2-way HART communication for 2-wire transmitters in hazardous areas.
  • I.S. safety barrier with 2-way HART communication for supplied current transmitters in hazardous areas.
  • Signal isolator with fast response time on analog current signals from hazardous areas.

PR 5106 HART Transparent Repeater from PR electronics

Featuring microprocessor-based technology for gain and offset, the PR 5106 HART Transparent Repeater efficiently processes 4-20 mA current loops with exceptional accuracy and a fast response time of less than 25 ms. Thus, the 5106 is ideal for real-time monitoring and automation control applications. Its floating, galvanically isolated inputs and outputs help protect sensitive field transmitters and control systems from electrical noise and interference in addition to enhancing system stability and uptime.

• The PR 5106 Series primarily processes current signals of 4-20 mA.
• This HART Transparent Repeater relies upon microprocessor technology for gain and offset.
• The analog signal transmits at a response time of less than 25 ms.
• Inputs, outputs, and supply are floating and galvanically separated.
• The output can connect either as an active current transmitter or as a 2-wire transmitter.

Easy Mounting, Installation, and Programming

Ideal for flexible installation, the PR 5106 HART Transparent Repeater supports both active current transmitter connections and 2-wire transmitter modes with universal AC/DC power compatibility. Its compact form factor allows up to 84 channels per meter of DIN rail space, thus minimizing cabinet footprint in high-density applications. Whether extending HART signal range, isolating system loops, or improving communication reliability in distributed control systems (DCS) and SCADA networks, the 5106 Series delivers precision, safety, and durability for industrial signal management needs.

• The PR 5106 Series can mount vertically or horizontally on a DIN rail. 
• As the devices can mount without distance between neighboring units, up to 84 channels can mount per meter.
