Control equipment supplier introduces EZ intelligent relay - Creamer Media's Mining Weekly
Specialist supplier of control equipment CHI Control has introduced the latest Eaton EZD intelligent relay, equipped with a multifunction display that offers powerful visualisation functions and improved networking capability to its existing EZ range of offerings.
CHI Control technical manager Gert Jonker says that the extensive EZ product range offers customers simple solutions, such as a compact standalone intelligent relay with timing relays and a year switch, or complex solutions, or proportional inte- gral-derivative control, such as a large-scale network of EZ intelligent relays that processes 320 input/output (I/O) points with local and remote expansion modules and visualisation.
He says that the EZ range of intelligent relays is best suited for standalone standard applica- tions, rather than large opera- tions or plants. The devices are used in pumpstations and air-conditioning systems, as well as on coal-mining company Anglo American Coal New Vaal colliery’s fire protection systems.
The EZ range offers user-friendly operation and programming. It also offers simple and inexpensive networking. By integrating the EZ-NET network, up to eight stations of EZD devices can communicate up to a distance of 1 000 m. All stations can be expanded locally using the EZ-Link interface, which enables EZ and EZD devices to be used with applications involving 12 to 320 I/O points.
