The EB3C Series are essential components of intrinsically safe applications. These devices limit current, voltage, & total energy delivered to a sensor or any other actuator instrument located in a hazardous area. When used in areas with hazardous chemicals, gases or other ignitable atmospheres, limiting the energy is required to prevent any possible fires & explosions from occurring.
Dry contact switches can be connected to the EB3C. Illuminated switches also can be connected with the combination of the EB3S Relay and the EB3L Lamp Barriers.
Universal AC power voltage (100 to 240V AC) No grounding required IDEC's original spring-up terminals reduces wiring time Dry-contact switches with 0.5Ώ maximum contact resistance can be connected to the EB3C 8 and 16 circuit types are available in common wiring types, ideal for connection to PLCs Installation: 35 mm wide DIN rail mounting or direct panel mounting IEC60079 compliant
