Now with SmartWire-DT
16 June 2014
Power management company, Eaton, now offers its multi-functional electronic motor starter (EMS) with ratings from 0.06 to 3kW with integrated control via its innovative SmartWire-DT communication and connection technology.
This makes the connection of the motor starter to the automation environment easier, faster, less prone to errors and therefore more cost-effective. The EMS offers users in industrial and machine building applications all the important functions of a reversing contactor circuit in a single device – with a mounting width of only 30mm.
Thanks to the SmartWire-DT connection the wiring is kept to a minimum. Both the control cables that normally connect the motor starter via the I/O level to the PLC, and the supply cables to the devices are no longer necessary and are replaced by Eaton's green cable.
