Smart Grid
Firstly, a reliable, sustainable energy supply poses new societal challenges. The energy needs will continue to grow disproportionately until 2030. Rising energy costs, scarce resources and CO2 emissions are global factors. New energy concepts and system approaches, such as the Smart Grid, are needed to combat these challenges.
In addition to increasing energy demand, another challenge is that energy production is becoming increasingly decentralized. The volatility of renewable energy sources makes it difficult to ensure a stable energy supply. The Smart Grid solves this problem. Linking various applications enables multidimensional energy and communication streams that allow for a flexible reaction to ambient conditions. Eventually, this requires special communication and network infrastructures customized to meet specific requirements.

Our new PSRmini safety relays are rather the narrowest safety relays in the world with the performance of a large safety relay. Phoenix Contact developed the relay technology in the centerpiece of the new PSRmini device. The compact 6 mm wide elementary relay design offers tried-and-tested safety, because of the force-guided contacts. Hence, the numerous technological details make it reliable as safety technology should be. It is its robustness, reliability, and diagnostic capability that sets it apart from a standard elementary relay.
The new DC/DC converters of the QUINT POWER product range are particularly suitable for applications in the energy sector. Independent supply systems can be established and monitored in a preventative manner due to the electrical isolation between the input and output voltage. All DC/DC converters, power supplies, and redundancy modules of the QUINT POWER product range support power boost, which continually supplies 1.25-fold nominal current.
