Phoenix Contact is promoting its range of interface products for the process industries. As an integral part of the process in many plants, the interface level, if designed correctly, can increase efficiency and availability. With the range from Phoenix Contact, there are products to suit all requirements and, in the case of upgrades and modifications, compared with comparable devices from our competition, the problem of utilising existing space and cabinet sizes is overcome with some of the company's compact modules.
MINI Analogue is the modular isolating amplifier system:
MACX Analogue - safe and high-performance signal isolating amplifiers. All modules are SIL-certified and are also available for the Ex area
Controlling and monitoring a complex system requires a large number of signals. Wiring individually can lead to high installation and start-up costs, with human error and testing being an unseen cost. Then add in additional high costs for upgrades or modifications and the Capex and Cost of ownership increases well beyond the initial figure.
The new termination carrier from Phoenix Contact is specifically designed to reduce the cost of engineering, installation, maintenance and future modification/upgrades by quickly and smoothly connecting isolating amplifiers. Used together with pre-assembled and tested system cables, the termination carrier design reduces the assembly time and often tedious troubleshooting during start-up, therefore facilitating tasks such as the factory acceptance test (FAT) of entire control cabinets.
