Process Control

E-T-A Circuit Breakers has introduced an optimised 24V DC power distribution system for use at the device level in automated process control plants. An E-T-A SVS09 distribution board provides plug-in sockets for electronic and thermal-magnetic circuit breakers to protect each of ten outputs from the effects of overloads and short circuits. It also offers an integrated alarm handling function for single and group signalisation.

The E-T-A SVS09 can be built up of cascades of individual boards designed in a master/slave mode, with up to 5 slaves per master, allowing equipment, such as transducers, actuators, valves, distributed PLCs and intelligent terminals, to be clustered into function groups and incorporated in the plant’s overall alarm monitoring system. This offers cost and space saving in control cabinets.

Directly mounted on a DIN-rail, the maximum load per position is 4A, and 30A per SVS09 board. All terminals are spring loaded for rapid installation.
