Description

The ESX10-103-DC24V-8A from E-T-A is a sophisticated power distribution solution engineered to meet the demands of DC 24V systems in industrial environments. Designed with versatility and reliability in mind, this device operates within a voltage range of 18 to 32 volts, ensuring compatibility across various applications while providing essential circuit protection and monitoring capabilities.

This single-pole system supports a wide range of current ratings from 0.5A to 16A, accommodating diverse power requirements with efficiency and precision. It incorporates advanced load disconnection mechanisms that respond swiftly to short circuits, typically disconnecting within 100 milliseconds, and overloads, typically within 5 seconds. These features are critical for safeguarding equipment and minimizing downtime due to electrical faults.

The ESX10-103-DC24V-8A is equipped with precise current limitation technology, offering settings at 1.15 times the nominal current (IN) and additional levels at 1.8, 1.5, and 1.3 times IN. This capability allows for tailored protection against excessive currents, enhancing system reliability and longevity.

For enhanced functionality, the system includes versatile signal output options designed for seamless integration with external monitoring or control systems. It provides DC 30V/0.5A max (normally closed or normally open) and DC 10V/10mA min (normally closed or normally open) outputs, ensuring compatibility across a variety of industrial applications. The status output, capable of handling up to 0.2A, features short circuit-proof design and provides clear feedback on system status and faults through a tri-color LED indicator (green, orange, red).

In terms of design and installation, the ESX10-103-DC24V-8A features 6.3 mm blade terminals for secure electrical connections and supports plug-in mounting using modules 17plus and 18plus, facilitating straightforward installation within control panels or equipment enclosures.

To ensure compliance with safety standards such as Machinery Directive 2006/42/EG and EN 60204-1, it is crucial to match the cable cross-section of the load circuit with the current rating of the ESX10 used. Additionally, implementing precautionary measures such as employing a safety PLC is recommended to prevent automatic system restarts following a failure, thereby enhancing overall system safety and reliability.

The ESX10-103-DC24V-8A is available through Miken Electronics, providing robust circuit protection, precise monitoring, and a user-friendly design tailored for industrial applications where performance, safety, and efficiency are paramount.
