Additions to relay range

Eaton's electrical sector is now offering its easy800 control relay with Smart Wire-DT. The easy800 family is being extended with two new devices which offer the features of the easy800 control relay, combined with Smart Wire-DT, a connection and communication technology from Eaton.

The new switching devices are connected to Smart Wire-DT (SWDT).

Up to 99 Smart Wire-DT slaves with over 160 inputs/outputs can be connected to the devices for adequate control of small or medium-sized machines. Both come with serial interface as standard for programming or connecting a remote display such as the Eaton MFD-Titan multi-function display.

The first device, EASY802-DCSWD, has two power supply inputs: POW for supplying the device and the SW-DT slaves, and AUX for the 24V DC supply of connected contactors. The wide range of function blocks provided by easy800 are also available, such as: multifunction timing relays, counters, text outputs, value inputs, 7-day and year time switches, P-PI-PID controllers and maths function blocks, opening up a range of different applications.

The second device, EASY806-DCSWD, has all the functions of the standard device plus four digital inputs (24V DC) used for high-speed counter functions. It has a wide application range, regardless of whether it is used as a single-channel counter (to 5 kHz), frequency counter (to 5 kHz) or as a two-channel incremental counter (to 3 kHz).
