Device avoids redundant contactors
CMDs monitor the state of the contactor's main contacts and compare this with the voltage applied to the coil.
Switch range suits safety applications
Moeller Electric T rotary switches and P switch disconnectors are suitable for use as main, maintenance and emergency-stop switches that can be locked in the off position with up to three padlocks.
When combined with the Easy expansion modules Easy 619-AC-RE and Easy 619-DC-TE, the easy control relays designated as Easy 619-AC and Easy 619-DC, offer the user a unit with 24 inputs and up to 16 outputs.
Delivering flexibility combined with functionality, Easy allows the user to configure a wide range of circuits for switching and control.
For the control of larger machines or if the user wishes to solve tasks that are physically separate from one another additional remote inputs/outputs are required.
The Easy 200-Easy expansion module has been developed to cope with this task.
When connected to an Easy expandable basic unit a simple twisted pair cable is used to link the Easy expansion module and the control relay.
Distances of up to 30m can be achieved thus negating the need for costly bus connections.
If cost is a key requirement in the users project, the Easy basic units are also available in the economically priced versions with no display.
Programming is carried out via the Moeller's Easy-Soft software.
Using this software a circuit only has to be created once and then it can be copied as often as required.
The Easy control relays represent a breakthrough in the field of controllability.
Easy is suitable for a wide range of applications such as greenhouses that require automatic control of temperature and daylight, lighting controls for buildings that require the on/off switching to be completed from one central point and bulk feeder hoppers that require automatic refilling.
Thanks to an operating temperature range of -25 to +55C, Easy can be used to provide trouble-free switching and control in the most severe environments.
