Phoenix Contact QUINT SFB Power Supply

Quint SFB Power SupplyWith the QUINT SFB, you can stop using oversized power supplies to trip breakers. The patented SFB (selective fuse breaking) technology supplies six times the nominal current of the power supply for up to 12 milliseconds. This is enough current to reliably trip thermal-magnetic circuit breakers and to prevent loss of critical loads, like a controller or an entire plant shutdown.

 

SFB technology is just one of the QUINT SFB's advanced features. This third generation line of DIN rail power supplies also includes:

  • Up to 50 percent continuous output current reserve (Power Boost)
  • Adjustable output range of 18-29.5 V DC to compensate for voltage drops
  • Available in 1-phase and 3-phase variants
  • Wide operating temperature range from -25 to 70 degrees Celsius and nominal operating temperature rating of 60 degrees Celsius without de-rating
  • Built-in load-sharing capability for parallel operation and increased output current
  • Wide array of agency approvals and certifications
  • Standard five-year U.S. warranty with optional TRABTECH surge protection no-fault warranty

Complete your power rail by using a new range of circuit breakers that combines the advantages of fuse terminal blocks with the benefits of thermal-magnetic circuit breakers. The UT 6-TMC M series is a resettable, single-pole circuit breaker with screw connection.

 

Tripped circuit breakers on the TMC are clearly indicated and can be easily reset with the press of a button. The series is available in 11 graded steps for nominal currents from 0.5 to 16 A. Two bridge shafts simplify distribution.

 

Measuring just 12.3 mm wide, the UT 6-TMC M circuit breakers occupy 30 percent less space than conventional 17.5-mm circuit breakers. The series is part of Phoenix Contact's CLIPLINE Complete system, which feature standardized push-in bridging, marking and testing accessories for all connection technologies.
