Switching actuators
The new switching actuators, featuring
four, eight and twelve channels each for
6, 10 and 16/20 amperes, can handle
capacitive, inductive and resistive loads.
Stand-out features include maintenance-
free terminals for rapid connection and
simple looping-through of untreated
conductors.
Control, monitoring and
diagnostic functions
The basic function of switching with
status message can be extended by
logical and timer functions via ETS, as
well as override functions such as
manual ON, continuous OFF, or priority
control. The diagnostic functions also
allow monitoring of limit values based
on operating hours elapsed and switch-
ing cycles.
Switching with analog control values
As an alternative to a binary input
value (ON, OFF), for each switching
channel an analog control value, e.g.
temperature, percentage value, power
(W, kW), illuminance (Lux) and integers
can be converted directly into ON/OFF
switching commands.
Reliability and efficiency
Siemens offers established and reliable
building control technology products.
All switching cycles can handle high
inrush currents for capacitive loads up to
16/20 AX, while the device installation
can be checked using display and
operating elements as well as the test
points of the new switching actuators
with commonly used tools.
