Moore Industries SIX Signal Isolator, Converter and Repeater

Description

Overview

The Moore Industries SIX Signal Isolator, Converter, and Repeater is a versatile 2-wire, loop-powered device that solves three of the most common process signal problems in a single compact unit: eliminating ground loop interference, converting between dissimilar signal types, and boosting drive capability on overburdened loops. Because the SIX derives its power directly from the process loop, no additional power supply installation is required, simplifying retrofits in existing control panels.

Seven Star LLC supplies the Moore Industries SIX as an authorized partner to instrumentation and control panel integrators across Oman and the GCC. Every unit shipped through Seven Star LLC carries genuine Moore Industries certification and full manufacturer warranty, with local technical support available for installations in Muscat, Sohar, and Salalah.

Measurement and Operating Principle

As an isolator, the SIX provides total galvanic isolation between the signal from a non-isolated transmitter and a receiving device, eliminating faulty readings caused by ground loops, motor noise, and other electrical interference common in industrial environments. As a converter, it acts as a precise interface allowing transmitters, transducers, controllers, recorders, and control systems with dissimilar signal types to communicate reliably with one another.

As a repeater or diverter, the SIX increases drive capability on a process loop to allow installation of additional instruments, and it can divert a secondary signal from a process loop to a recorder, indicator, or similar device without disturbing the primary loop. The SIX also solves the common “bucking power supplies” problem that occurs when interfacing a DCS with a 4-wire, line-powered transmitter – installing a SIX between the two units restores normal loop operation even when both sides are independently powered.

Engineering Design of the Moore Industries SIX

Housed in a compact DIN-style enclosure that mounts on 32mm G-type or 35mm Top Hat rails, the SIX delivers accuracy and linearity of ±0.1% of span, with exceptionally low 50-ohm input impedance for 4-20mA and 0-20mA inputs that avoids loading existing loops while regenerating clean signals. Isolation reaches 1500Vrms between input and output on standard units, or 500Vrms with the -RF option, which also boosts RFI/EMI protection to 20V/m from the standard 10V/m immunity rating.

The SIX accommodates an extensive range of input and output combinations spanning current signals (0-20mA, 4-20mA, 10-50mA), voltage signals (0-1V through 0-100V), and millivolt ranges, with removable terminal blocks speeding installation and maintenance. Output tracking ensures the isolator output follows the input below 3mA on input failure, and external multiturn potentiometers allow ±10% span and ±5% zero adjustment for precise field calibration.

Key Features

  • 2-wire, loop-powered operation requires no additional power supply
  • Total galvanic isolation stops ground loops and electrical interference
  • Converts between dissimilar current, voltage, and millivolt signal types
  • Solves bucking power supply conflicts between DCS and 4-wire transmitters
  • Accuracy and linearity of ±0.1% of span
  • Low 50-ohm input impedance regenerates signals without loading loops
  • Isolation up to 1500Vrms; optional -RF for enhanced 20V/m RFI/EMI protection
  • Compact DIN-rail mount with removable terminal blocks

Industrial Applications

The SIX is widely deployed across Oman’s process control panels and instrumentation retrofit projects to eliminate ground loop noise between field transmitters and DCS or PLC systems, and to interface legacy dissimilar-signal instrumentation with modern control systems. Its ability to resolve bucking power supply conflicts makes it a standard solution when integrating new DCS inputs with existing 4-wire transmitters across Sohar and Muscat industrial facilities.

As an authorized Moore Industries partner, Seven Star LLC supports control panel builders and process facilities across Oman and the GCC with genuine SIX isolators correctly specified for the required input/output combination. This authorized-partner relationship ensures signal integrity solutions are backed by manufacturer warranty and responsive local technical support.

Why Choose Seven Star LLC for Moore Industries Signal Isolators

A signal isolator only solves the problem it is bought for when its input and output signal types, isolation voltage rating, and hazardous-area certification are correctly matched to the specific ground-loop or interference issue on your plant floor, since the wrong configuration can introduce a new fault while appearing to fix the original one. Seven Star LLC confirms the correct SIX configuration against your actual signal path and area classification before shipment, backed by our authorized Moore Industries partnership across Oman and the wider GCC. We also support instrumentation teams across Muscat, Sohar, and Salalah retrofitting signal conditioning into existing control panels, helping plan spare isolators for critical loops so a single failed unit never takes down an entire measurement or control chain, and our technical staff advise on isolation voltage selection where multiple ground-referenced systems must be safely interfaced together.

Contact Seven Star LLC today to order the genuine Moore Industries SIX Signal Isolator, Converter and Repeater with full manufacturer warranty and expert technical support for signal integrity projects across Oman and the GCC.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Moore Industries SIX isolator do?
The SIX functions as a signal isolator (eliminating ground loops), a converter (interfacing dissimilar signal types), and a repeater/diverter (boosting drive capability or splitting a signal to a secondary device), all in one compact loop-powered unit.
Does the SIX require an external power supply?
No. The SIX is a 2-wire, loop-powered device that derives its power directly from the process loop, eliminating the need to install an additional power supply.
Can the SIX solve bucking power supply conflicts?
Yes. When interfacing a DCS with a 4-wire, line-powered transmitter causes conflicting power supplies on the same loop, installing a SIX between the two restores normal loop operation.
What isolation level does the SIX provide?
The standard SIX provides 1500Vrms isolation between input and output, while the -RF option provides 500Vrms isolation with enhanced 20V/m RFI/EMI protection for noisy environments.
Is Seven Star LLC an authorized partner for Moore Industries isolators in Oman?
Yes. Seven Star LLC supplies genuine Moore Industries SIX isolators as an authorized partner serving Muscat, Sohar, Salalah, and the wider GCC, with full manufacturer warranty and technical support.
