Phoenix Contact Power Reliability Solutions

Avoid unplanned system failures and downtimes

Efficient operation requires reliable supply solutions consisting of surge protection, power supply, device protection, and energy monitoring with the corresponding measurement technology. Phoenix Contact provides everything from a single source, from selection and installation to operation. The Phoenix Contact portfolio ensures very high system availability and efficient and sustainable system operation.

Protect systems and electrical devices against excessively high voltage peaks caused by switching operations and lightning strikes. Plan a lightning and surge protection concept that properly protects all cables, devices, and systems.

To illustrate the protective circuit principle easily, draw an imaginary circle around the object that needs to be protected. Surge protective devices must be installed at all points where cables intersect this circle. This ensures that the area within the protective circuit is protected so that conducted surge voltages are prevented. An effective protective circuit ensures seamless surge protection.

Phoenix Contact power supplies, DC/DC converters, redundancy modules, and uninterruptible power supplies allow designers to reliably supply their applications.

Choose the ideal power supply for a particular application's needs from a wide range of product families. DC/DC converters and DC/AC inverters are available for voltage conversion. Redundancy modules let users decouple two power supplies and ensure a system's high availability and productivity. Designers can rely on Phoenix Contact uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to eliminate any risks during interruptions to outlet power.

Additionally, energy measuring devices with the appropriate sensor technology allow the detailed recording of energy flows and the assessment of power quality.

Device circuit breakers protect equipment against overload and short-circuit currents and selectively shut down only the affected circuit in the event of a fault.

Phoenix Contact circuit breakers provide ideal protection by using various technologies:
• Thermal circuit breakers for overload protection
• Thermomagnetic circuit breakers for overload and short-circuit protection
• Electronic circuit breakers for protection in the event of overload, short-circuit, line attenuation, and high input capacitance

Optimize production processes and minimize downtimes with Phoenix Contact overcurrent protection.
