It monitors the voltage on the loop and when a short circuit is detected, isolates the affected section whilst allowing the rest of the addressable loop to function normally. If a detector fitted to a 5BI exhibits a short circuit, the Isolator Base will isolate both sides of the loop from the faulty device without affecting any other device on the loop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 5BI is able to pass current in both directions, ie Line In to Line Out, or Line Out to Line In and does not require a detector to be fitted to operate correctly. The 5BI offers improved performance over the superseded 814IB and can support up to 100 IB units 2 instead of 32.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 5BI Isolator base incorporates all the features of the 5B but it is used exclusively with digital addressable MX Technology detection loops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey allow any or all detectors to be upgraded to incorporate bi-directional short circuit isolation.  Used with every detector, they will ensure that no detector is lost in the event of an open or short circuit loop fault. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA built in amber LED indicates when isolation has been activated.  Isolation will automatically reset when the fault is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martex Marine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42793728376880,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/1475\/3328\/files\/tyco_5BI-5_MX.png?v=1772186295","url":"https:\/\/martexmarine.com\/products\/tyco-5bi-5-mx-isolator-base-517-050-018","provider":"Martex Marine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
