Transducers provide an easy-to-use interface
MCR-SL-PT100 temperature transducers offer a simple, convenient and exceptionally cost-effective method of interfacing Pt100 temperature transducers with instruments and control systems.
Rail-mounting universal supply saves panel space
Only 22.5mm wide, the new rail-mounting Mini-PS power supply from Phoenix Contact offers big savings in valuable panel space.
The especially compact dimensions of 100 x 130 x 125mm are made possible thanks to the integrated 1.3Ah battery module.
The buffer time varies according to the load current: the module supplies 10A for 1.5min or 1A for 30min.
Connected devices can be divided into buffered and unbuffered loads using the integrated diodes.
If a continuous power supply is not essential, devices can be connected to the 24V DC output on the power supply.
This increases the buffer time for critical loads.
Battery management and reliable signalling increase plant availability in comparison with standard installations.
The power supply displays the battery charging status, the operating state and buffer mode, as well as warning when the battery module charge is running low.
Installation work is kept to a minimum thanks to integrated functions such as the timeout feature or pre-assembled insertion bridges used in place of customary wiring.
Approval by Germanischer Lloyd (GL) for ship building and offshore applications demonstrates the trouble-free operation and long life span these power supplies offer, as GL approval sets high standards in terms of resistance to climatic strains and mechanical loads as well as electromagnetic compatibility.
