Typical switching
actuator application
Thanks to high switching power, the
new switching actuators also lend
themselves for use in outdoor lighting,
such as for car parks and buildings.
Installing the switching actuators
The switching actuators are snapped
onto a DIN rail. The maintenance-free
push-in terminals allow for untreated
solid, flexible and stranded conductors
with conductor diameters ranging from
0.5 to 2.5 mm² to be connected and
looped-through.
In-room applications
The new switching actuators are
designed to handle resistive, inductive
and capacitive loads and include
comprehensive control, override and
diagnostic functions. They also offer
comprehensive automation functions,
particularly for residential, office, hotel,
school, industrial and branch buildings,
for switching the following loads:
electrical heating (up to 3.8 kW),
underfloor heating, boilers, electrical
sockets, lighting, e.g. LEDs, incandes-
cent lamps, fluorescent lamps, low-
voltage halogen lamps with upstream
wound transformers, low-voltage
halogen lamps and so on.
In the example illustrated, the new switching actuators (3) are used to switch the background lighting (2) in the
room via presence detectors (1) or push-buttons (4). Both workplace lighting and PCs/monitors are supplied with
electricity via a switched socket (5) in the floor box and can be switched on and off centrally for energy-efficient
operation. Depending on brightness and time, the switching actuators can also be used to switch the outdoor light-
ing (6) and path lighting (7) on and off. The switching actuators also facilitate the presence-based and temperature-
dependent control of ventilation and electrical heating (8).
