Phoenix Contact Buffer Modules Bridge Cyclical Failures Lasting up to 30 Seconds

Phoenix Contact

 

September 19, 2017

Phoenic Contact’s buffer module combines an electronic switch-over unit and maintenance-free, capacitor-based energy storage in the same housing. The lockable USB interface for connection to higher-level controllers makes it convenient to shut down your PC.

The buffer module offers a long buffer time thanks to high memory capacity. 5 or 10 A can be buffered for 30 seconds. Thanks to its compact design, the module saves space in the control cabinet. With over 20 years at 20°C and more than 500,000 charge/discharge cycles, you will also benefit from very long service life.

The soft start means that the buffer modules can also be used in combination with power supplies in the low power range. Thanks to the comprehensive signaling options and the wide temperature range from -40°C to +60°C, the new buffer modules also support flexible use.
