Industrial relay system for all applications

September 2013 Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays

The new Rifline industrial relay system from Phoenix Contact ranges from a slim 6,2 mm coupling relay to a relay as a small contactor replacement. The most powerful relay can switch voltages up to 400 V and the universally pluggable system ensures high machine and system availability.

The relay system is based on Phoenix Contact’s push-in technology, with which wiring is done by inserting the wire directly into the clamping sleeve significantly shortening the installation time. This technology is already in use in several products, such as the PLC-interface relay series and the Clipline complete terminal block system.

The usage of bridging material from the existing terminal block product range enables simple current distribution. A few of the relay modules in the series can be upgraded to a timer relay with the pluggable timer module, which offers four time ranges and three timer functions. The relays are offered as a complete module for conventional input voltages. This modular component system enables the implementation of custom solutions.
