Phoenix Contact is extending the modular Caparoc system of individual circuit breakers with a new power module with IO-Link interface. This makes Caparoc more flexible in use and easier to adapt to the conditions of the machines to be protected.
The Caparoc PM IOL power module with IO-Link interface.
With the simple integration of further IO-Link devices, the IO-Link protocol is being used more frequently in machine building and systems manufacturing. With the IO-Link interface, error states and threshold values exceeded are detected at an early stage. Consequently, maintenance planning can become more efficient. The integrated error log enables rapid problem identification when troubleshooting in the 12 to 24 V dc range.
The Caparoc PM IOL power module with IO-Link interface is integrated in the online configurator. This creates an individual circuit breaker system. For machine builders, the personal item number generated by the configurator makes it possible to reorder the solution time and again. Suitable digital services will support the user, for example, with individual data from the 3D model, through the marking, to the data sheet and in EPLAN.
