Passive distributor

The usual wiring system in mobile work machines is the single-wire wiring harness adopted from the automotive world. The basic idea is a direct connection from the control to the sensors and actuators distributed in the machine. Practice shows, however, that the installation system often has to be supplemented with expensive, additional terminal boxes. to be able to connect customer requests to the wiring harness or to create a measuring option in the event of an error.The xtremeDB passive distributors from DATA PANEL are perfect for routing up to 16 inputs and outputs on the controller into the field using DT plug-in technology. If desired, the signal status can be displayed by means of LEDs and helps with commissioning and troubleshooting. The passive distributors can be integrated into single-wire cable harnesses or equipped with a pre-assembled, overmoulded sheathed trunk line. The passive distributor thus functions as a dense and space-saving alternative to the terminal box or as a modular, pluggable expansion level on the cable harness.A transport separation that is necessary depending on the machine situation can be easily implemented with the 18-pin main line connection and without any additional costs. The housing material of all distributors is a reinforced plastic that is completely encapsulated and thus the highest protection classes up to IP69K and excellent media resistance with a wide temperature range of -40 at the same time °C … + 80°C.Conclusion: Our xtremeDB passive distributors from DATA PANEL with DT connection technology are the robust and cost-efficient alternative to terminal boxes and cable harnesses.
