• Design: Modular

How to use

The Eaton CMUC24/25-40 is designed for quick and secure mounting onto a standard 35mm DIN rail. Before installation, ensure that the power supply is disconnected to prevent electrical hazards. Connect the control wires to the A1 and A2 terminals, ensuring the voltage matches the 24V AC/DC specification. The load cables should be connected to the main power terminals according to the wiring diagram provided on the device housing. Once installed, verify all connections for tightness before restoring power to the system.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 24V AC/DC control voltage is compatible with your existing control system.
• Ensure the 25A rated current is sufficient for the specific electrical load you intend to switch.
• Check the available space in your distribution board for DIN-rail mounting.
• Confirm that the four normally open contacts meet your circuit requirements.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the installation is performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes and safety regulations to prevent equipment damage or personal injury.
