Tekron’s ITR Isolated Timing Repeater is a compact DIN rail mountable signal repeater that performs a number of tasks including converting time synchronisation signals, boosting signal strengths and converting one type of signal to another. The ITR Isolated Timing Repeater is completely electrically isolated and it will provide your Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) with an additional layer of electrical protection.
Adding Isolation
When a fault occurs and breakers trip in a substation, the electrical interference can disrupt signals. That could be exactly the moment you need your timing network to be up and running so you have an accurate sequence of events. The solution is isolation which gives perfect electrical isolation between the cabinets, protecting against earth fault conditions or cabinet related electrical faults. With fibre being used outside of the cabinets, any radiated noise on the IRIG-B signals is eliminated, reducing the chance of timing errors due to corrupt IRIG-B signals.
Key Features
Extends the distance of an IRIG-B or pulse signal
Provides isolation between A & B protection systems or between (IEDs)
Converts a TTL signal from copper to fibre / fibre to copper
Converts a TTL signal to a digital high volage MOSFET signal
Reduces wiring to panels of equipment
