What is difference between Isolator and Barrier ?
Barriers are used in Hazardous locations to power Intrinsic
Safe instruments. The barrier will reduce the available
loop current to a level that cannot produce a spark.
An Isolator is used to connect signals of different common
mode voltage for example a transmitter signal may be
referenced to +24 whereas the DCS may be referenced to
ground.
You can also have an isolator that is designed for use in
Intrinsic Safe circuit.

if we open the inlet of an air regulator ,how it will affect the out put of regulator? (out put of regulator is using to operate an on-off valve.it is an air to open valve,and valve is in open position.my doubt is air regulator will hold the valve in open or not,if there is no consumption or leak in regulator out put side ,we only loose the input pressure.)
1.can you use SCADA instead of DCS,DCS instead SCADA 2.Difference between DCS and PLC,can their role be reversed i.e. role interchange 3.Difference between RTU and PLC
