Type PowerPlex® Power Module PM500
~ 264 mm
Description
The PowerPlex® PM500 is our Power Module with physically isolated CAN bus interface as well as redundant protective functions for connected DC loads. Analog to the PowerPlex® DC024, the device can control and monitor a total of twelve electrical loads. Each module has a manual override function for each 8 A and 25 A output via integral electro-mechanical mini circuit breakers. This allows manual and direct switch-over and ensures access to critical functions.
Product features:
- Galvanic isolation of the CAN interfaces
- Configurable outputs (2 x 25 A, 6 x 8 A, 4 x 1 A)
- Software-controlled overcurrent protection with current measurement
- Hardware-controlled safety disconnection
- Self-protection of power transistors
- Mini circuit breakers with manual switching function
Application examples:
- Control and monitoring of DC loads
- Control, dimming and monitoring of lights
- Control and monitoring of navigation lights
- Control and monitoring of the anchor light
- Voltage measurement
