PULS Power: PISA-B Multi-Channel Electronic Circuit Breaker
Brand:
Industry Focus: Industrial
Product Type: circuit protection
PISA-B is an efficient electronic circuit breaker (ECB). It distributes the current, protects your loads from over-current or short-circuits and monitors the operating status in DC 24V systems. The 8-channel programmable capability can identify and isolate individual faulty branches. It shuts down the affected channels only and secures the constant power supply of the remaining loads. An integrated data monitoring reports the operating status to a PLC or control center. The electronic circuit breaker also alarms in case of an error and allows a remote reset of the channels.
WAGO: Single-Channel Electronic Circuit Breakers (ECBs) – Precise Protection and Space Savings for DC Circuits
Brand: wago
Industry Focus: Industrial
Product Type: circuit protection
WAGO’s single-channel electronic circuit breakers (ECBs) guarantee reliable protection in the control cabinet. They protect both devices and cables while selectively disconnecting individual current paths, preventing unaffected paths from being shut down. As soon as the corresponding tripping currents are reached or even exceeded, they automatically trip in a set time. The tripping currents can be flexibly parameterized or fixed, depending on the model.
