Multichannel circuit breakers

When it comes to protecting loads at the 24 V level, conventional circuit breakers are steadily losing ground to electronic circuit breakers. Besides tighter tolerances and a more compact design, these offer further advantages that can really add value within a system if used correctly. When teamed with a higher-level control system, electronic circuit breakers support, via a digital input and output, active switching on or off of any output channel, resetting of tripped circuits and simultaneous reporting of current operating and error statuses. BLOCK multichannel circuit breakers only need up 5.25 mm per channel with all 8-channel modules and can be integrated into the overall control and monitoring process.
