Small relays and optocouplers feature filter switching

April 2004 Operator Interfaces, Switches & Relays

The pluggable and 6,2 mm small PLC-Interface relay and optocoupler product range from Phoenix Contact will be expanded with the PLC-...SO46 line. Interface elements will be implemented where conventional relays and optocouplers cannot correctly shut off, because of noise voltage interference (caused by the control system) or a leakage of current. Effective filter switching reduces unwanted disturbances such as initiator leakage currents or noise voltage interference arising along longer control cables. This noticeably improves the switching behaviour as well.

The modules are designed for use with AC power supplies of 120 and 230 V and are available either using screw or spring cage technology. In particular, the PLC relay and optocoupler range features savings on space, wiring and cost.
