Combined switch/circuit breaker for simulators
E-T-A has introduced a new combined switch/circuit breaker which has been designed especially for aircraft simulators, and has exactly the same 'feel' as E-T-A's operational flight-deck products
Current ratings have been extended up to 8A.
The new E-T-A 808 magnetic CBE is suitable for 24V DC operation with a choice of current ratings from 0.01 to 8A.
The design incorporates a unique, rapid switching mechanism with electrically separate excitation and switching circuits, and also offers auxiliary contacts for status signalling.
The switching and auxiliary circuits are rated at 5A.
The E-T-A 808 features a push/pull on/off operating button which provides a useful manual switching function.
The overall housing size of the new look product is a very compact 30 x 20 x 10mm deep.
The whole unit, which weighs only around 10g, is designed for direct mounting on a printed circuit board to provide protection of sensitive PCB circuitry and components, as well as for use in safety and control systems.
With the same pin layout and spacing as its predecessor, the new version can be used as a direct drop-in replacement. Request a free brochure from E-T-A Circuit Breakers ...
