As a result, STO circuits no longer need to be routed over long distances to a central distributor and assigned to a specific energy branch. This reduces the system\u2019s susceptibility to interference and provides significant benefits for planning and installation work.<\/p>\n<p>This innovative combination of starter functions enables the distribution of all energy and the decentralised assignment of STO circuits in the field. Furthermore, a high level of safety (SIL 3, PL e) can be attained with little eff ort. All motor starters in an emergency stop circuit are connected to STO female sockets, and the STO circuit is monitored and controlled by an auxiliary voltage generated in the field, as well as a two-channel safety relay. In addition, multiple STO circuits can be powered by a single power supply.<\/p>\n<p>When an energy bus system, such as Wieland Electric\u2019s podis 5G6, is used, additional benefits of separating energy and signal are realised &#8211; because the energy distribution for multiple motor starters and motors can be combined on a single line with only one feed. This saves space in the cable trays and simplifies wiring in the distributor panel. Furthermore, the podis MS 5HP is designed in such a way that a single size can cover a power range of 0.25 kW to 4.0 kW. This aids in the reduction of storage and administration costs. The procurement and materials management processes are also simplified because there is only one order option. The processes for installation and commissioning are also straightforward: DIP switches can be used to fully program the motor starter. The user can make the settings for the motor and the application concerned after being guided through the procedure step by step by an intelligent web configurator guide. The podis MS 5HP is designed to meet the protection class IP65 and the NEMA12 standard, which is applicable to the US market. It is also appropriate for use in tough industrial environments.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, contact 01483 531213 or visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wieland.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.wieland.co.uk <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Large control cabinet space requirements, bulky cable trays, and complicated distributor box installation: when motors in conveyor systems are safely turned off in the traditional manner, the wiring and energy distribution involved is typically very complex.
