FAQ
-
What voltage range is supported by the 8U-BXCB20-CN module?
The module supports 24VDC and 48VDC input voltage configurations, depending on system setup. -
Is each breaker channel independently isolated?
Yes, each of the 20 breaker positions offers individual galvanic isolation and overcurrent protection. -
Can the breaker modules be replaced individually?
Yes, the plug-in design allows for individual breaker replacement without disturbing other circuits. -
What is the default rated current per breaker?
The default is 6A per channel, but this can be adjusted by selecting different breaker ratings. -
Does the module provide short-circuit protection?
Yes, thermal-magnetic breakers protect against both overload and short-circuit conditions. -
Can the module be used outside Honeywell systems?
While optimized for Honeywell systems, it can be adapted for other industrial automation environments that use 24/48VDC control power. -
Is the module hot-swappable?
The breakers themselves can be serviced with proper precautions, but full hot-swapping of the assembly is not recommended under load. -
How are diagnostics communicated to the control system?
Local LED indicators provide visual diagnostics; some configurations can include auxiliary signaling for system integration. -
What is the thermal dissipation of the module during operation?
Thermal dissipation depends on load; passive cooling is sufficient for most installations within spec. -
Does it require any software configuration?
No software configuration is necessary; the module operates as a passive hardware power distribution system.
