The device helps protect connected loads against overload and short-circuit conditions while maintaining an organized power distribution architecture. Its compact DIN-rail housing makes it suitable for installation inside control cabinets and industrial panels. The integrated status indication allows operators to identify the operating condition of the protected channels. DF1216 is suitable for industrial automation systems where dependable 24 V DC circuit protection is required. The verified datasheet specifies DIN-rail mounting, 80 × 12.5 × 98.5 mm dimensions and status LEDs with pushbuttons.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
DF1216 provides two separately protected output channels for efficient distribution of 24 V DC power. Each channel is designed around a 6 A nominal current rating for connected loads. Electronic protection helps reduce the risk of damage caused by excessive current conditions. Individual channel protection makes fault identification easier during machine operation. The electronic circuit breaker can be integrated into centralized control cabinet power architectures. This makes DF1216 useful for protecting sensors, actuators, control components and other automation loads.
The compact housing allows DF1216 to be installed efficiently in electrical control cabinets. DIN-rail mounting provides a standardized installation method for industrial panels. Its narrow 12.5 mm housing helps save valuable cabinet space. Push-in terminal technology supports practical electrical installation and maintenance. Status LEDs provide a convenient visual indication of operating conditions. The design is suitable for organized modular power distribution systems.
The electronic protection architecture helps improve the reliability of 24 V DC supply circuits. Separate channels allow different loads to be protected independently. Fast fault response can help limit the impact of overload conditions. Visual status indication supports quicker troubleshooting by maintenance personnel. The compact construction helps simplify cabinet layout and wiring. DF1216 is therefore suitable for automation systems requiring dependable and space-efficient circuit protection.
