Pilz Circuit Breakers

Why Pilz Breakers & DIN Devices Matter

Modern industrial control panels and switchgear must handle high availability, safe operation, and rapid serviceability. Standard circuit protection alone no longer suffices: you need modular, engineered devices that integrate into DIN-rail systems, support diagnostics, and ensure long-term reliability. Pilz’s range of breakers, modular protection devices and DIN-rail modules answers that need—giving you a consistent platform for protection, monitoring and power distribution.

Pilz Technology Logic – How the Devices Work and Why They’re Relevant

Modular Circuit Protection & DIN Rail Integration

Pilz offers DIN-rail mounted protection devices—including miniature circuit breakers (MCBs), surge protective devices (SPDs), overload protection modules and power distribution modules—designed to fit seamlessly into control cabinets:

• Snap-on to DIN 35 rail, enabling compact and standardised layout. For example a Pilz base device can mount to DIN 35
• Safety and protection features aligned with Pilz’s heritage: modular safety relays (myPNOZ) show the architectural approach — modular, flexible, compact.

Connection, Diagnostics & Lifecycle Support

• Multi-pole protection modules with plug-in terminals and push-in technology reduce wiring time and maintenance
• Integration with Pilz’s broader safety/control ecosystem means the protection devices share documentation, layout logic and service paths.

Variants & Applications – Where Pilz Protection Devices Fit

Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) by Pilz

Ideal for panel branch circuits, machine feeders, modular control cabinets — Pilz MCBs provide overcurrent protection in a familiar form factor, but with integration potential into control-system layouts.

Surge Protective Devices & Overload Modules

For systems requiring protection against transient over-voltages or overload stress (e.g., long cable runs, variable-speed drives), Pilz SPDs and overload modules form a vital part of the protection chain.

Modular DIN-Rail Power Distribution & Protection

For cabinets built around standard DIN-35 rails (control panels, automation racks), Pilz’s devices support modular design—allowing flexible power distribution, protection and expansion while maintaining a clean footprint and serviceability.

Procurement & Design Criteria – What Buyers Need to Check

• Amperage and circuit count: Determine how many poles, current rating, and coordination required for your cabinet feeders.
• Mounting standard: Make sure the device fits your DIN rail (typically 35 mm) and offers plug-in/plug-out capability for agile service.
• Protection type: Choose between general MCB, selective breakers, surge protection, overload modules—based on risk profile.
• Warranty and lifecycle: Opt for modules designed for frequent operations, easy replacement of busbars and terminals.
• Integration & standardisation: When you already use Pilz controllers or safety relays, favour devices that align with the same vendor—simplifies documentation and spares.
• Certifications & compliance: Ensure the devices meet IEC/EN standards relevant to your region (e.g., IEC 60947, EN 60204) and panel-builder documentation.

Operational Reliability & Maintenance – Keeping Panels Safe and Service-Ready

• Modular DIN-rail devices mean faster field replacement: reduce downtime by swapping out a breaker or SPD module instead of rewiring.
• Diagnostics-friendly: build a panel where protection devices are clearly labelled, accessible, and service paths are visible—streamlining preventive maintenance.
• Standardised across machines: implementing Pilz devices uniformly across lines makes training, spare-parts management and safety audits easier.

Integration & Ecosystem – How Pilz Devices Fit Into Your Larger System

By choosing Pilz breakers and modular devices, you align with the same brand architecture used for safety relays, automation controllers and field I/O. This gives you:

• Shared vendor for spares and lifecycle support.
• Unified documentation style, which simplifies cabinet build, commissioning and maintenance.
• Easier spares logistics: modules, busbars, terminals, labels—all from the same ecosystem.
