PR 9203A Solenoid Driver

Description

Advanced features

  • Universal driver for the control of solenoids etc.
  • Two hardware versions make it possible to choose either Low (35 mA) or High (60 mA) current output.
  • Configuration and monitoring by way of detachable display front (PR 4511/4501).
  • Selection of direct or inverted function for each channel via PR 4511/4501 and the possibility of reducing the output current to suit the application.
  • Optional monitoring of the output current by way of PR 4511/4501.
  • Optional redundant supply via power rail and/or separate supply.

Application

  • The device can be mounted in and transmit signals to non-classified area and zone 2.
  • Control of ON / OFF solenoids, acoustic alarms and LEDs.
  • The 9203A is controlled by an NPN/PNP signal or a switch signal.
  • Monitoring of internal error events via the individual status relay and/or a collective electronic signal via the power rail.
  • The 9203A has been designed, developed and certified for use in SIL 2 applications according to the requirements of IEC 61508.

Technical characteristics

  • 1 green and 2 yellow/red front LEDs indicate operation status and malfunction.
  • 2.6 kVAC galvanic isolation between input, output and supply.

Mounting

  • The devices can be mounted vertically or horizontally without distance between neighbouring units.
