Power Interface Module
Power interface modules (PIMs) provide the following:
-
Electrical and thermal protection functions
-
Digital asset management
TeSys avatars that include power devices can provide full-load energy monitoring when a voltage interface module is installed on the TeSys island .
A PIM can be associated with an analog I/O module to measure temperature through an external sensor. A PIM can also control and monitor the current supplied to an external device.
The main functions of the PIMs are as follows:
-
Measure electrical downstream data related to the load
-
Provide energy monitoring data when a voltage interface module is installed on the TeSys island
The PIMs are connected:
-
Upstream to a circuit breaker
-
Downstream to an external power device like a contactor, soft starter, or variable speed drive
The PIMs communicate with the bus coupler, sending operational data and receiving commands.
