Phoenix Contact RC-120-230UC Plug-in Module for ECOR-1 and ECOR-2 Sockets

The Phoenix Contact RC-120-230UC is a specialized plug-in module engineered for seamless integration with ECOR-1 and ECOR-2 relay sockets. This component incorporates an RC element designed to provide effective suppression of reverse voltage spikes generated within relay coils during operation. Housed in a durable black casing, this module is built to meet rigorous industrial standards, ensuring consistent performance and safety in various electrical control systems.

Advantages

This module offers significant benefits for industrial automation and electrical panel assembly. The inclusion of an RC element effectively attenuates reverse voltage, which helps protect sensitive electronic components and extends the operational lifespan of the connected relays. Furthermore, the design incorporates mechanical coding features that prevent incorrect insertion, thereby reducing the risk of installation errors and ensuring a secure, reliable connection every time.

Suitable for

• Industrial control systems
• Electrical panel installations
• Automation relay circuits
• Protection of relay coils against voltage spikes

When it may not be suitable

This module is specifically designed for use with compatible ECOR-1 and ECOR-2 relay sockets. It is not intended for use in circuits outside the specified voltage range of 120-230 V AC/DC. Attempting to use this component with incompatible socket types or outside the rated electrical parameters may result in improper operation or damage to the equipment.

Key specifications

• Voltage range: 120-230 V AC/DC
• Component type: RC element module
• Compatibility: ECOR-1 and ECOR-2 sockets
• Color: Black
• Weight: 2.7 g
• Certifications: CUL, RoHS compliant

How to use

To install the Phoenix Contact RC-120-230UC, ensure that the power supply to the relay socket is disconnected. Align the module with the designated slot on the ECOR-1 or ECOR-2 socket. The mechanical coding ensures that the module can only be inserted in the correct orientation. Press the module firmly into the socket until it is securely seated. Once installed, the module will automatically begin suppressing reverse voltage when the relay coil is de-energized.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your relay socket is an ECOR-1 or ECOR-2 model.
• Ensure your system voltage falls within the 120-230 V AC/DC range.
• Check the available space in your control cabinet for the module dimensions.

Usage recommendations

Always verify that the module is fully seated in the socket before applying power to the circuit. Regularly inspect the module during routine maintenance to ensure it remains free of debris and securely connected.
