Thermal Overcurrent Circuit Breakers

Typical Applications

Thermal circuit breakers (circuit protectors, resettable fuses, circuit breakers for equipment protection) are ideally suited to overload protection of motors, transformers, magnetic valves, on-board electrical systems and low voltage lines.

Technology

The trip time of thermal circuit breakers depends on the height and of the duration of the overload current and the ambient temperature. With higher current ratings, the bimetal or hot wire is heated up until the defined trip time is reached and the device ensures genuine physical isolation of the contacts.

Functional Enhancement of the REX12D Intelligent System

The REX12D intelligent system is ideally adapted to the requirements of machine construction and process control. The compact and modular design, the innovative connection technology and the great number of different devices provide a competitive edge over standard solutions to protect your DC 24 V power distribution.

By extending the functional scope of the REX12D system you are free to decide where to set your focus.

Standard Version with Status Recording of 32 Channels

In the standard version, the EM12D-TIO supply module communicates with now 32 channels instead of 16 channels. The status of the channels is transmitted to the superordinate IO link master.

Enhanced Version with Recording of Measuring Values and Data Analysis

The extended version sets the focus on the recording of measuring values and on the analysis of these measuring data of 16 channels. By means of a cyclical transmission of the load currents, changes in the current consumption of individual loads can quickly be detected. This allows efficient control and maintenance and significantly cuts downtimes.

The SPR10-T is a solid state remote power controller and is suitable for DC 12 V and DC 24 V applications. A special feature of the SPR10-T is that it combines switching and protecting functions in a single device. In addition, it offers status indication by means of LED and status output.

Reliable Switching Operation with Overcurrent Portection

Unlike conventional electronic and mechanical relays, the SPR10-T provides integral overcurrent protection. An additional external overcurrent protection element is not required. In the event of a failure, only the faulty path is disconnected and the fault is indicated at the device or at the status output; all other circuits remain unaffected. This ensures quick and easy trouble-shooting and increases machine uptime and system availability.

Four Functions In One Unit

• solid state relay with control input (ON delay 1.5 ms)
• electronic overcurrent protection (trip at 1.3 x IN)
• status signalling (by means of LED and status output)
• integral power distribution (by means of busbars)

For Powerful Loads

Direct mounting on symmetrical rails allows fast and flexible installation. In addition, several devices can very easily be connected by means of busbars, reducing wiring time to a minimum.

With current ratings of 20A and 25A, the SPR10-T is particularly suitable for powerful loads with a high current demand and a cable cross sections up to 10mm².

The combination of these properties is, with a width of only 12.5 mm, an efficient and compact solution for your application. You do not only save components, storage costs and space in the control cabinet, but you also significantly reduce planning and wiring efforts.

Technical Data

• Voltage rating DC 12 V/DC 24 V
• Operating voltage DC 9…32 V
• Number of poles 1-pole
• Signal outputs DC 24 V / max. 0,2 A
• Status indication 1 LED, green/orange/red
• Temperature range -25 °C…+60 °C
• Terminal design screw terminals
• Certificates UL 2367, UL 508, CSA C22.2 No. 14

Reliable and Robust Connection Technology Even Under Toughest Requirements:

Our power relays are designed to withstand the tough requirements of the commercial vehicle industry, especially for construction and agricultural machinery. With the new plug-in connector compatible with the HDSCS series we are now also part of the connection technology in modern on-board electrical systems.

The plug-in connector is made of robust thermoplastic with flammability class UL94 V0 and has an integrated secondary interlock with poka-yoke principle. Even under the toughest conditions the control connections can no longer come loose.

The cables can already be precut. During final assembly of the vehicle they are only to be plugged in and locked. Special tools such as tightening torques, Torx bits, crimping tools for cable sockets etc. are no longer required during final assembly.

The reverse polarity protected plug-in connection ensures a clear assignment of the control contacts.

The plug-in connector provides a robust and save connection. It is protected with IP 5k4 against penetrating dust and water.

Power Relays with Plug-In Connector (HDSCS-Series):

• MPR10
• MPR20
• HPR10

Typical Applications:

• Main disconnectors for buses, trucks, construction machinery, agricultural vehicles and forestry equipment as well as specialty vehicles
• High performance circuit breakers for large consumers such as air conditioning, compressors, electrical heating

Standards:

• ISO 16750
• IATF 16949
• ECE R118
• ECE R10

Save Time and Costs:

• Through quick and fault-free mounting
• Thanks to isolation of the control contacts from environmental influences
• Through high resistance against vibration and mechanical stress
