Chapter 1 – Overview
1.1 Introduction
Remote Automation Solution’s ControlWave Series Intrinsically Safe
Proximity Sensor Interface board (or the “ISProx board”) provides an
intrinsically safe interface to one or two industry-standard variable
impedance proximity sensors (see Specifications & Entity Parameters)
(NAMUR Gap Sensors). The module also conditions and converts these
signals to Open Drain outputs (DOs), which in turn drive ControlWave
EFM/GFC/Corrector digital inputs (DIs) or counter inputs (HSCs).
ISProx boards are snap-track mounted and are designed for installation
and operation within an area requiring either Class I, Div. 2 (Groups A,
B, C and D) or Class I, Div. 1 (Groups C & D) certified equipment.
ISProx boards provide the following features:
ISProx boards are intrinsically safe (IS) and may be used as barrier
between an IS device and a nonhazardous installation.
Five (5) terminal blocks provide field device wiring flexibility and
convenience:
o Terminal block P1 accommodates 6 - 24 Vdc bulk input power
input.
o Terminal blocks P2 and P3 provide open drain outputs (DOs)
(converted from the proximity sensor inputs) which are wired to
ControlWave EFM/GFC/GFC Corrector digital inputs (DIs) or
counter inputs (HSC).
o Two Input Sensor terminal blocks (P4 & P5) provide an IS
interface to two inductive proximity sensors (two-wire) (with
entity parameters matching those of the ISProx).
Snap-track mounting accommodated.
Small size minimizes panel space requirements.

1.2 ISProx Component Identification
This section discusses components of the ISProx board with which you
should be familiar. These components include terminal blocks P1
through P5 and fuse XF1.
Terminal Blocks
ISProx boards have five terminal blocks which accommodate up to
#16 AWG size wire. Tables 1-1 through 1-5 provide terminal block
designation and connections.
