Motor Protection Adds Profibus

March 5, 2010
The Motor Insight overload and monitoring relay system has been expanded to include Profibus communications, in addition to the previously available Modbus and DeviceNet industrial protocols. 
The relay system is designed to provide advanced monitoring capabilities, diagnostics, and motor and pump protection in one device. The new offerings include two separate modules, one with 24VDC I/O and 120VAC I/O. The relay system reportedly provides increased process uptime and throughput, reduced costs per repair, reduced energy consumption and extended equipment life help to reduce overall operating costs.Eaton Corp. www.eaton.com216.523.5000
