Highly compact circuit breaker

PLC-Interface from Phoenix Contact offers the innovative combination of a relay interface and circuit breaker in an overall width of just 6.2 mm, thus saving valuable space in the control cabinet. The nominal current and shutdown behaviour can be configured individually via DIP switches on the device.

Manual configuration enables various tripping characteristics, such as “Fuse mode” (shutdown after overcurrent) or “Hiccup mode” (cyclic automatic restart attempt), to be set and also allows the tripping thresholds to be set between 1...6 A in increments of 1 A. The physical overload shutdown of a channel is indicated visually and via remote signalling. An active diagnostic output provides a reliable status message to the higher-level controller.

Comprehensive accessories, bridging options, and system cabling solutions contribute to reduced wiring effort and fast cabling. Universal compatibility as well as easy system integration and function extension of existing installations with the PLC-Interface product range ensure a high degree of flexibility in almost any application.
