Intelligent Modular Unit

Definition

A modular unit is a mechanical and electrical assembly containing one or more products to perform a function in a switchboard (incoming protection, motor command, and control).

The circuit breaker with its internal communicating components ( MicroLogic control unit or MicroLogic trip unit) and external ULP modules (IO module) connected to one communication interface is called an Intelligent Modular Unit (IMU).

An IMU is composed around a circuit breaker from the following ranges:

MasterPacT MTZ circuit breakers
MasterPacT NT/NW circuit breakers
ComPacT NS1600b-3200 circuit breakers
ComPacT NS630b-1600 circuit breakers
PowerPacT P- and R- frame circuit breakers
ComPacT NSX circuit breakers
PowerPacT H-,J-, and L- frame circuit breakers

NOTE:

The information related to the new generation of ComPacT NSX and PowerPacT H-, J-, and L- frame circuit breakers in this guide applies to the existing range ComPact NSX and PowerPact H-, J-, and L- frame circuit breakers also.
The information related to the new generation of ComPacT NS and PowerPacT P-, and R-frame circuit breakers in this guide applies to the existing range ComPact NS and PowerPact P- and R-frame circuit breakers also.
The exceptions are mentioned wherever applicable. The new ranges are based on the same technical and dimensional architecture as that of the exiting range of circuit breakers.
ComPacT NS and PowerPacT P- and R-frame circuit breakers are supported by IFE interface with firmware version 004 and later.

Remote Controller

A remote controller is a device that is able to communicate with an IMU using a communication interface, such as the IFE Ethernet interface. For example, FDM128 Ethernet display for eight devices, supervisor, PLC, BMS, SCADA system, and so on, are remote controllers.
