Weidmüller maxGUARD electronic load monitoring terminals

These terminals allow load (electronic fuse monitoring) and potential distribution for 24VDC control voltages in one, which leads to space saving by over 50% in control panels.  The concept is user friendly, saves wiring time and eliminates wiring errors.

LONG VERSION

Weidmüller maxGUARD electronic load monitoring and control voltage distribution combined in one

With the new maxGUARD system, the terminal blocks (previously installed separately) for distributing potential to the outputs of the electronic load monitors (electronic fuses) combine to become an integral part of a 24 V DC control voltage distribution solution. The innovative combination of load monitoring and potential distribution in a 6.1mm wide terminal saves time during installation, increases safety against failure and reduces the amount of space required on the terminal rail by 50 %.

The solution is ideal for machines and control systems and saves valuable wiring time and eliminates wiring errors by using innovative cross connectors. Sophisticated operating, testing and connection elements allow simple galvanic isolation and permit safe access to all voltage potentials and load circuits during commissioning and maintenance.

The sheer range of variants and the different potential distribution terminals and additional components enable customised solutions at all times for a modular system that adapts itself optimally to every application.
