Knick USA announced the North American debut of its BasicLine, a family of low-cost signal amplifiers and isolators. The Knick USA BasicLine offers system integrators, control panel builders, automation and process control engineers with a unique array of standard features found mostly only with higher end signal isolation devices, including: high-integrity measurement signal transmission; adjustable range offset; accuracies as high as 0.2% to 0.3% FS, (depending upon selected model); and 480 pre-calibrated switchable ranges without need for readjustment.
Another unique feature of BasicLine is its actual working voltage specifications, making the Series true 3-way isolators. This presents a real performance advantage over other lower cost industry signal conversion devices, which are typically 2-way or non-isolated. This 3-port isolation further protects the Series against measurement errors and damage, whilst creating an unmatched price-to-performance ratio.

These include: BL 541/542 loop powered isolator for standard signals, with no external power source requirements. BL 530 load and signal doubler with two galvanically isolated current outputs, each of which can drive a load of either 400 or 800 ohms, when connected in-series; BL 520 flexible temperature transmitter with selectable range, measuring temperature via standard platinum sensors and thermocouples; BL 550 set-point alarm relay with changeover output, monitoring contacts and control process variables with maximum reliability; BL 570 standard signal isolator with more than 400 factory pre-calibrated ranges, as well as individually adjustable ranges between ±20mV and ±200Vdc; BL 513 mains-powered signal isolator with optimal signal transmission quality and speed; BL 510 compact signal isolator with galvanic isolation, 0- to 20-mA input and signal conversion, as well as repeater power supply; And the BL 560 repeater power supply, featuring a slim 6-mm housing. The BL 560 is used in safe areas for supplying 2-wire sensors with signal decoupling, along with 4- to 20-mA input and supply voltage.
All BasicLine series units both CE compliant and UL approved. They are also available for delivery within four weeks from stock and are accompanied by a three-year comprehensive product line warranty.
