The All Electric Society A society in which renewable electrical energy is available in sufficient quantities: the All Electric Society. Relay modules from Phoenix Contact support you on the path to a carbon-neutral and sustainable world in all applications. Within the All Electric Society infrastructure, Phoenix Contact ensures the flow of energy and signals in all applications between the control level and the field level with clever relays and switching devices. The functionality and availability of your system depends on millions of switching operations, which are therefore essential for the successful electrification and coupling of sectors.
Power-to-X supported by PLC-INTERFACE relays The main components of power-to-X applications and processes are very similar to existing process plants. Products that are already used in the process industry today will continue to play an important role in power-to-X applications in the future. With PLC-INTERFACE relay modules, you can draw on many years of experience in the process industry, enabling you to master the challenges of the future. Today, many sensors and actuators are already switched, controlled, or evaluated in process engineering plants. These sensors and actuators are also indispensable and necessary in power-to-X systems. One example is special switching devices for potentially explosive areas, which are relevant for both natural gas and hydrogen applications.
Digital data – the essential prerequisite for the All Electric Society
A wealth of digital data is needed to make sector coupling successful. The systems of different manufacturers must have platform-independent access to this data. The product data we offer for PLC-INTERFACE includes CAD data, ECLASS classifications, and interfaces for various engineering tools.
Compatible with all systems – CAD data
All important product data at a glance – here’s what the online product area offers:
- Dimensions overlay
- Transparent mode
