... of the type with a 4 to 20 mA current loop ...


Explanation:
...preceded by "equipped with a standard analog interface".

A very common electronic/electrical specification. As in, for example: "... The diagram shown in Figure 11 is an analog 4 to 20 mA current loop..." (first web site)

and: "... Sensor Applications Engineer: This application note describes a 4-20 mA current loop interface circuit for Honeywell's Precision Pressure Transducer ..." (second web site)

HTH,

Who am I to argue with a "beer specialist"? I wasted 30 years, as it were, in what I thought had been, from time to time, an electrifying experience!
