Phoenix Contact ME-PLC housing system

The ME-PLC housing system from Phoenix Contact offers plenty of space for electronic components, a pluggable front connector and a mounting rail bus connector on the rear.

The pluggable front connector features a lever mechanism and offers space for up to 36 push-in connections. This facilitates fast device start-up and replacement. A universal cover for fixed wiring can easily be snapped on, as can display and operating elements. The rear bus connector is designed for customer-specific bus circuit boards with up to 50 pins, enabling interdevice communication. The built-in mechanical coding system prevents installation of the wrong device units.

All housing parts can feature customer-specific print labelling such as barcodes. The system’s generous housing dimensions and individual connection options for signals, data and power make it suitable for complex control units.
