Why Amelec Trip Amplifiers Stand Out
SIL‑Certified Safety Ratings
Amelec offers trip amplifiers certified to SIL 1, SIL 2, and SIL 3 (IEC 61508‑2), ensuring dependable integration into Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) in hazardous or regulated environments.Amelec Instruments+8Amelec Instruments+8Amelec Instruments+8
Wide Versatility & Input Types
Supported inputs include thermocouple, RTD, mV, AC current/voltage, frequency, slidewire, strain gauge and process signals—making them ideal for nearly any application. Amelec Instruments+14Amelec Instruments+14Amelec Instruments+14
Configurable Trip Logic & Form Factors
Models range from single to dual or multiple-trips, adjustable deadbands, remote reset, latched relays, bi‑colour LEDs, and optional display or RFI protection. They are housed in rugged polycarbonate enclosures and mountable on DIN‑rail or surface. Amelec Instruments+5Amelec Instruments+5Amelec Instruments+5
High Precision & Fast Response
Typical trip setting accuracy is ±1 % with repeatability ±0.1 %, and response times under 100 ms—critical for timely safety actions. Amelec Instruments+14Amelec Instruments+14Amelec Instruments+14
Universal Supply & Modular Integration
Some models (e.g., AEC132) feature universal 21–265 V AC/DC supply, simplifying global deployment. The modular ADT series supports various process inputs, fully isolated input/output/supply, and is DIN‑rail compatible. Amelec Instruments+12Amelec Instruments+12Amelec Instruments+12
