Potter & Brumfield ODCM-5 DC Output Module (ODCM5)

The Potter & Brumfield ODCM-5 DC Output Module (ODCM5) is a versatile and reliable module used in industrial control systems to provide direct current (DC) outputs for various electrical applications. The ODCM-5 module is designed to interface with control systems like programmable logic controllers (PLCs), allowing for the control of devices that require a stable and regulated DC output, such as motors, solenoids, relays, and actuators.

Built for industrial environments, the ODCM-5 offers enhanced performance, protection features, and ease of integration. It is especially suitable for systems that need to drive or control multiple devices with varying power requirements. The module ensures the safe operation of connected systems by providing features like overcurrent protection, short-circuit protection, and thermal protection, making it a critical component in automation and control systems where reliable DC outputs are essential.

The compact design and easy mounting options (DIN rail or panel mount) ensure that the module can be easily integrated into existing systems, saving space and simplifying installation.
