Product catalog summary
Overview of the REX System
The REX system is an integrated solution for DC 24 V protection and power distribution, tailored for mechanical engineering. It is designed to enhance transparency, enable remote diagnostics, and provide significant time and cost savings due to its compact and flexible design.
Bus Controller
The CPC12 and EM12D ControlPlex® controllers facilitate connectivity of the REX system with various communication interfaces such as IO link, Modbus RTU, PROFINET, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus TCP. These controllers gather status information and allow for the control and parametrization of circuit protectors, with data visualization available via a web server for maintenance purposes.
Overcurrent Protection
The REX12 and REX22D circuit protectors provide unique overcurrent protection features. Available in single or dual channels with fixed or adjustable current ratings, they are adaptable to diverse applications. The REX12 offers cost-effective selective overcurrent protection, while the REX22D actively limits output current during high-load conditions or short circuits.
Supply Modules
The EM12 supply modules are crucial for the REX system, offering flexibility and eliminating the need for additional accessories. They support both BASE and COM systems and provide diagnostic information for remote maintenance.
Power Distribution
The PM12-T potential distribution modules facilitate both +DC 24 V and 0 V (GND) distribution within the same system, saving space and simplifying wiring and troubleshooting.
Benefits
  • Increases machine uptime through clear troubleshooting and remote diagnosis.
  • Ensures flexibility with easy assembly, modular design, and adjustable settings.
  • Saves time and costs by reducing the need for additional components.
  • Space-efficient design with modules only 12.5 mm wide.
Specifications and Approvals
The REX12 modules are equipped with fuses compliant with IEC 60127-4/2, UL248-14, and CSA248-14 standards. They also meet UL508 and NEC Class2 approvals, ensuring cable protection as per EN60204-1.
Adjustability and Modes
The system offers flexible adjustment options via various communication protocols such as PROFINET, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, IO link, and Modbus RTU. Current ratings can be adjusted from 1 A to 10 A, with Class2 ratings from 1 A to 4 A. The system operates in two modes: COM mode, which allows adjustments through ControlPlex® controllers, and BASE mode, which involves manual adjustments.
System Components and Features
The REX system includes various modules like EM12, CPC12, and PM12, each with specific functionalities. It supports a wide operating voltage range (DC 24 V) and offers features like multicolored LED indication, potential-free auxiliary contacts, and communication capabilities.
Industry 4.0 Integration
The REX system supports condition monitoring and predictive maintenance. It provides overcurrent protection, power distribution, and monitoring capabilities. The CPC12 ControlPlex® controllers and EM12D supply modules transmit diagnostic information to a control unit, facilitating data logging, analysis, and parameterization.
Conclusion
The REX system is a comprehensive solution for power distribution and protection, offering flexibility, ease of use, and integration with modern industrial systems.
