Impulse switch - Do you want to be able to switch lighting from different places? Or should the light be switched on centrally in different areas of the building? No problem. We will explain to you the possibilities offered by the use of impulse switches. Benefit from our huge range of high-quality impulse switches from well-known manufacturers. Favorable prices, numerous secure payment methods and worldwide shipping make the eibabo® technology store a leading specialist electronics centre. Definition:Impulse switches are electromechanical or electronic devices for the simple and energy-saving control of lighting or other consumers. Impulse switches are also referred to as impulse switches or remote switches.How does a impulse switch work?The impulse switches are switches which are actuated electromagnetically or electronically. These are also known as impulse switches or remote switches. The operating principle is similar to that of a classic ballpoint pen, except that it naturally works without electricity. Impulse switches switch on with an electrical impulse at the control inputs and switch off again with another impulse. The distance to the pulse generator is irrelevant. From a technical point of view, impulse switches are bistable relays or flip-flops, since they have two stable rest positions. Each time the connected button is pressed, the impulse switch receives an electrical impulse. This causes a change in the switching status, which is stored mechanically or electronically until the next pulse. This is the essential difference to a monostable relay. This only switches 'on' as long as a connected button is pressed and then automatically returns to the initial state 'off'.What is the difference between electromechanical impulse switches and electronic impulse switches?Electromechanical impulse switches are comparable in structure and function to an installation contactor. In addition to the housing, this consists of the excitation coil, coil core, metal armature, switch contacts and armature return spring. Flowing current creates a magnetic field in a coil and the metal armature is attracted. The switching contacts close. As soon as the coil no longer generates a magnetic field, the armature is returned to its original position by spring force. Unlike an installation contactor, however, the switching contacts of the electromechanical impulse switch do not open as a result. These remain closed by means of a locking mechanism. Only a further impulse causes the latching mechanism to change and the associated opening of the contacts.Electronic impulse switches switch using transistors, which work as electronic switches and influence each other. A so-called bistable multivibrator is created. The current switching status is always determined by the previous status and is not stored in a locking mechanism but electronically. The switching process is completely noiseless. Since no mechanics are used, the wear and tear of electronic impulse switches is lower.Where are impulse switches installed?Impulse switches are usually offered in two designs. On the one hand as an REG device (= modular installation device) for mounting on a DIN rail in the electrical distribution. On the other hand, the devices are installed in switch boxes or junction boxes. This installation can be flush-mounted or surface-mounted.What are the advantages and disadvantages of impulse switches?In electrical installations and in electrical distribution installation, impulse switches can be used instead of off switches, changeover switches and cross switches. In this way, several switching points can switch the same load. The wiring required for the surge circuit can usually be implemented more easily and often more cost-effectively than with other circuits. You can also use impulse switches with three or four switching states. With such impulse series switches, you can map more complex switching processes in a relatively simple way. A classic application is switching the same load (e.g. a lamp) from several switching points. You know this scenario from:Staircases in the private environment or public buildingslong corridors in company buildingsRooms or halls with multiple entrances in hotels or production facilities In these cases you will usually find buttons on all floors or at all entrances in order to be able to switch the lighting on and off from all locations.Good to knowWhen 'switching', the load current only flows through a potential-free switch contact and not through all buttons. This reduces the susceptibility to failure. If a button fails, the circuit with the remaining buttons will continue to function.In addition, there is the option of centrally controlling several impulse switches. Using an additional module, all connected impulse switches can be reliably switched on or off. This happens regardless of the current switching position of a respective impulse switch. Practical example: An employee in an office building switches off the lighting in a central location at the end of a working day.However, electromechanical impulse switches also have a disadvantage. The devices produce a clicking noise when switching. This can be perceived as annoying. During installation, please ensure good sound insulation of the electrical distribution. Also consider this when mounting in the switch boxes of bedrooms or children's rooms. In these cases, use noiseless electronic impulse switches.Image: Eltako ES12DX-UC impulse switchFor what performance are impulse switches designed?The current impulse switches are designed with switching coils for 12 V AC/DC, 24 V AC/DC or 230 V AC. Impulse switches with monostable switching relays constantly require a small amount of electrical energy, while electronic impulse switches with bistable switching relays work with practically no standby loss.Where can I get high-quality impulse switches at particularly low prices?You can buy impulse switches for electrical distribution installation at low prices from eibabo®. We carry a large selection of high-quality impulse switches and electrical remote switches.

Charging device e-mobility - How do I charge an electrically powered car, motorcycle, bicycle, scooter or skateboard? Which charging station is the right one for my vehicle? Find out here which requirements must be met for the installation of a charging station. We support you in the purchase decision and clarify frequently asked questions. Charging stations for electromobility are an investment in the future. The demand for electric vehicles is constantly increasing. Soon they will account for a massive share of the new vehicle market. Now is the ideal time to invest in charging stations. While the cost of electric vehicles is falling, the range is constantly increasing. This means that more and more people will be able to drive their entire journey in an electric vehicle. The increase in electric vehicles is also associated with an increased need for charging stations. If you would like to charge your vehicles at home or at work in the future, you will find suitable offers for high-quality charging stations in the eibabo® shop with which you can maintain your electric mobility.What is a charging station?A charging station connects electric vehicles to a power source. These are mostly electric cars. In the private sphere, such a device is also called a wall box. This provides the energy required to charge a battery. A distinction is made between AC chargers and DC fast charging stations. You can only charge a battery with direct current. The electricity from the socket is available as alternating current. For this reason, most electric vehicles have their own charger or charging cable with rectifier. This converts the alternating current into direct current. DC quick chargers are mainly found in public spaces. These enable charging with higher power. The direct current is supplied directly to the battery. The vehicle's converter is bypassed. There are simple and inexpensive models, but also extensively equipped variants. Some have smart meters, connectivity to cellular networks, or internet access. TIP:Many charging stations have a residual current circuit breaker. This saves you the cost of an external residual current device. The eibabo® shop not only has charging stations for electric cars, but also for electric bicycles.Why should I invest in a charging station?More and more people own an electric car. If you invest in a charging station, you can use it in your private environment or, for example, offer it to the residents of your building as a landlord. In private use, you make yourself independent of public charging stations. You determine the cost of charging yourself by choosing a cheap energy supplier. There is also the option of connecting your own photovoltaic system. How to use your self-generated solar power to charge your vehicles. There are also many advantages for commercial use. For example, you can encourage your customers to charge their car while they shop. This extends the parking time and can attract new customers.What should I consider when buying the charging station for my electric car?Have the installation carried out by a specialist electrician.Define your equipment requirements before purchasing. Should it be possible to use it via a smartphone app? Do you want to record electricity costs and create statistics? Is access protection desired?A DC residual current detection integrated in the wall box reduces the costs of the house installation.When integrating into a photovoltaic system, please ensure that the interfaces are compatible.Wallboxes are usually not in permanent use. Therefore, the standby consumption should be as low as possible. Can the wallbox be switched off completely?Register the charging station with the network operator.Systems with more than 11 kW of power are subject to approval in Germany, for example.Please ensure that the manufacturer's declaration of conformity is available. This ensures that the device meets the requirements of your country.Good cable management including plug garage makes daily handling easier.A wall box with a socket should have a switchable locking device for the charging cable. This will prevent the charging cable from being stolen. Where should I install the wallbox?A wall box is best installed in a dry, shady place that is not exposed to direct sunlight. The ideal height should be around 1.5 to 2 meters above the ground. Make sure the area around the box is clear of obstacles. Depending on the installation location, the question of the correct cable length arises. It should be noted that power consumption and the associated costs increase with longer cables. Line losses may occur if the cable is too long. The recommended cable length for wall boxes is 10 meters. This is the optimal length to avoid losses and keep power consumption low.DangerThe requirements and standards that must be observed when connecting a charging station for electric cars can be very extensive. You should therefore commission a specialist electrician to do this.If you need a longer cable, you should consult an electrician. He is able to dimension the cable correctly and ensure that no losses occur.Do I need a separate charging station for my e-bike or pedelec?You can charge e-bikes and pedelecs at a classic household socket. If you live in your own house, this is possible in the garage, in the carport or in the basement. We recommend using a charging station if you regularly want to charge more than one bike at the same time. So the bikes are always in a designated place. The distribution of the wheels to several sockets in different rooms is no longer necessary. As a landlord, you can also offer your tenants the charging of their electric bicycles. As a rule, you do not have a publicly accessible socket in the underground car park or in the hallway. A charging station is a suitable alternative before the occupants of your house have to carry the electric bike into the apartment. Depending on the model, individual billing or locking of the charging points is possible.Which wall box is right for me?There are a number of factors to consider when choosing the right charging station. On the one hand, the power of the charging station should be matched to the required charging power of the vehicle. On the other hand, it is important to choose the fuse for the circuit and the dimensioning of the cable accordingly. TIP:The required charging power of a vehicle is usually specified in the operating instructions. For an electric car with a battery capacity of 40 kWh, for example, a charging capacity of 11 kW may be sufficient. Faster charging is possible if the charging station has a higher power. You can usually charge an electric car with a battery capacity of 60 kWh at a charging station with 22 kW. Circuit protection is important to prevent damage to the vehicle or charging station. The recommended fuse for a wall box with 3.7 kW power is 16 A. For a wall box with 11 kW power, the recommended fuse is 32 A and 22 kW power must be fused with 64 A. The dimensioning of the cable depends on the length of the cable and the desired charging power. For example, a 1.5 mm² cable is sufficient for a charging capacity of 3.7 kW. At least 6 mm² is recommended for a charging capacity of 11 kW. The number of charging points depends on the number of vehicles that are to be charged at the same time. If you want to charge several vehicles at the same time, there must be a separate charging point for each vehicle. The power of the charging station is divided among the vehicles. Dimension a new charging station for the future. Lay cables with a cross-section suitable for 22 kW. In this way you avoid further costs if you later buy a vehicle with a quick charging function.How do I calculate the charging time of my electric vehicle?The charging time of an electric vehicle depends on various factors, such as the battery capacity, the charging power and the discharge current. The battery capacity indicates how much electricity the vehicle's battery can store. The charging power is the maximum charging current with which the battery is charged. The discharge current is the maximum current at which the battery can be discharged. To calculate the charging time of an electric vehicle, divide the battery capacity in kilowatt hours (kWh) by the charging power in kilowatts (kW).Image: ABL 1W2221 wall boxThe following example shows how to calculate the charging time of an electric vehicle: A vehicle has a battery capacity of 24 kWh. The charging power is 3 kW. In this case, it takes 8 hours to fully charge the vehicle.What does load management mean for the charging station?A distinction is made between load management within the wall box and load management within the electrical installation. Wallbox load management has the following advantages:Optimized charging performance: Load management optimizes the charging performance of your wall box. For example, you can charge your battery faster and more efficiently.Protection of the battery: Another advantage of load management is that the battery is protected. The optimized charging performance prevents the battery from being overloaded.Maximize battery life: Since load management protects both the charging power and the battery, you can maximize the life of your battery. So you can benefit from your wall box for longer. If several smart charging stations are in use, these can be integrated into a building's load management system via additional modules. This means that several electric cars can be charged at the same time with the same connected load. The available power is automatically distributed to the number of charging vehicles. Companies, car parks and hotels with several charging stations thus avoid expensive power peaks.Do I need restricted access for my Wallbox?In many cases, the Wallbox is located in public or semi-public areas. This means that it is accessible to everyone. This can pose a security risk, especially if the wallbox is not properly secured. A lockable wall box provides an additional layer of security. Unauthorized persons are prevented from accessing it, for example in a communal garage, in a hotel car park or company car park. Another option is to connect the Wallbox to an RFID system. This means that only authorized persons can open the box and use the power plug. RFID systems can be installed either on the wallbox itself or on a separate access control system.

Blind actuator - How can I automate my shutters and blinds? Can the time of day, the weather and the position of the sun be taken into account? We provide recommendations and information on the purchase of KNX blind actuators and show you what options the technology offers you in everyday life.If you want to build a new house or renovate an existing building, many questions arise. The technical equipment in particular must be well thought out, because a later change is then only possible with a lot of effort. If you already include the advantages of intelligent building automation in your planning, then the opening, closing and shading of the windows will also play an important role.Useful application examples for controlling blinds or roller shutters:the up and down of roller shutters and blinds according to time specificationsturning the slats of blinds based on the brightness in the roomthe automatic opening of roller shutters or blinds when windows are openedthe simultaneous operation of several shading systemsthe flexible control or regulation of the roller shutters when you are absent via a smartphone appthe automatic drive to the safety position in the event of a storm alarm and back after the all-clearthe blocking of operation for certain peopleautomatic shading according to geographic location and position of the sun (astro control) The use of modern KNX blind actuators supports you in realizing all these projects. They ensure more security, greater comfort and increase the value of your property. What distinguishes a KNX blind actuator from a KNX switching actuator?All motorized equipment such as blinds or roller shutters can be automated using KNX blind actuators. Standard 230V blind actuators therefore have 2 channels per switching output. A channel to drive up and a channel to drive down. The channels are mutually locked to prevent damage to the drive. So only one phase can be switched through to the drive at a time, never both at the same time. TIP:Never use KNX switching actuators to control blinds and shutters without a downstream isolating relay. With classic KNX switching actuators, the channels are not mutually locked. It would therefore be possible to connect more than one phase to the drive. This can quickly lead to damage to the technology. There are models which, depending on the configuration, can be used both as a switching actuator and as a shutter actuator. Please read the specification of the respective actuator.What should be considered during installation?Motorized 3-point drives must not be connected in parallel. Group formations may only be carried out using isolating relays or group control devices if the manufacturer does not provide for any isolating function. For example, for 4 windows, each with a drive, you should use a KNX blind actuator with 4 channels. There is also the option of operating several drives via one channel using conventional isolating relays. The shutter actuator channel then controls the isolating relay and the drives are connected to the isolating relay. In the meantime, however, the prices for the KNX actuators have fallen massively, so that there is hardly any need to reduce costs by using isolating relays. TIP:When selecting your components, always prefer one blind actuator channel per blind motor. For example, if you would like to integrate 6, 8 or 12 blinds into your system, you will find the appropriate actuator here in the shop.Are blind actuators with 230V AC better than models with 24V DC?This question is not about better or worse. Rather, the type of voltage of the drives should always be considered. The drives of blinds or roller shutters are often designed as 230V AC (alternating voltage) or 24V DC (direct current). That's why you have to buy the matching blind actuator or roller shutter actuator. A 24V DC blind actuator or roller shutter actuator has a plus and a minus connection. A suitable KNX actuator generates the direction of travel (up/down) by changing the poles (pole reversal).Do shutter actuators require a separate power supply?The 24V DC mains supply is not provided by the actuator and must also be installed externally depending on the power requirement for simultaneity (central commands). In this case, very large power supply units can become necessary, which, in addition to high costs, also require a large amount of space. If you can, order 230V AC drives and matching 230V KNX blind actuators from the supplier. These also require their own power supply, but no additional power supply units.That is the reasonSo-called monostable relays are installed in the shutter actuators, which are open and not active when idle. However, the relays continuously require energy as long as they are closed (e.g. for the duration of a blind movement). The bus voltage alone cannot cover this requirement.In contrast, there are bistable relays in classic switching actuators. These only require some energy in the brief moment of switching from one position to another. This can be implemented via the bus and an additional power supply is usually not necessary.What do I need an SMI KNX blind actuator for?SMI stands for 'Standard Motor Interface' and is an intelligent, uniform and manufacturer-independent interface in building automation. This is used to connect various operating resources, such as window drives, roller shutter drives or blind drives to a higher-level building management system. There are SMI KNX blind actuators for drives with an SMI interface. These intelligent drives are therefore able to exchange data telegrams across manufacturers.Which actuators are recommended for controlling roller shutters and blinds?eibabo® carries KNX blind actuators, KNX roller shutter actuators and KNX SMI actuators from ABB, Berker, Busch-Jaeger, Gira, Hager, Issendorf, Jung, Lingg & Janke, MDT, Merten, Siemens, Somfy, Theben, Warema and many other manufacturers.Over 25 years of experienceAll actuators that you get here in the shop are of high quality and reliable. We regularly use these actuators in our projects all over the world.Benefit from our low prices and take advantage of safe, fast and worldwide shipping.1-byte communication object - what is that?In any case, make sure that your blind actuator or roller shutter actuator has a 1-byte communication object for the runtime and slat, in order to be able to enable automatic or targeted control if required.There are no slats in roller shutters, which is why roller shutter actuators do not have the slat communication object, only Up/Down/Stop. Roller shutter actuators often have a 1-bit object for a defined positioning movement that can be set via the ETS software.1 byte means that values between 0-255 can be approached, which correspond to 0-100% related to the travel time. The parameters often allow the running time to be set according to the driving time. The travel time of the blind or roller shutter is entered once in the actuator using the ETS software, namely for a complete opening or closing for each channel of the actuator. There are also actuators for evaluating limit switches, which the motorized drive provides.Image: KNX blind actuator ? Eibmarkt JA.6.230The extensive application of the KNX blind actuator / roller shutter actuator JA.6.230 from Eibmarkt® shown here enables a wide range of parameterization via the communication object, including scenes for runtime and slats, blocking functions, automatic functions, security functions and alarm functions, movement limitations, position feedback and much more.Can a layperson use the ETS software to program the KNX devices?Don't be put off by the term 'programming'. The ETS software is only used to assign and parameterize certain actions. Programming skills or learning a programming language are not required. If you have some imagination to understand logical connections, then you are quite capable of creating a project.our recommendationFor more complex projects, a certain amount of experience is of course helpful. Have the basic project created by a qualified system integrator. In this way, you will later be able to easily change important parameters yourself if circumstances require it.Roughly explained: Imagine the folder system on your Windows PC or iOS computer. Here you create your own structure, save files in it and create links to other folders. This is similar with the ETS software. The 'folders' can be floors or rooms and the 'files' in them are the sensors or actuators of the respective room or electrical distribution cabinet, which you then link to one another.What types of installation are there for KNX blind actuators?KNX blind actuators are available for every type of installation at eibabo®. For example, for installation in the electrical distribution, then these carry the suffix 'REG' for series installation devices or as a flush-mounted version 'UP' for installation in a mounting box or junction box or as a built-in version 'EB' for integration in ducts or similar. However, additional protection must also be taken into account for built-in versions depending on the installation.

Binary input - What interesting possibilities does the use of binary inputs in building automation offer you? Learn more about differences, use cases, and things to watch out for on this page.What do you need a KNX binary input for?KNX binary inputs are used to convert conventional alarm messages, fault messages, operating messages or status messages (generally analog signals) into digital signals and connect them to the KNX bus.Image: KNX binary input universal - Hager TXA306 for KNX building automationWhat should you know before buying a KNX binary input?Take a look at your project and ask yourself the following questions:Is it a new installation or do I have to consider the properties of existing devices (e.g. switches)?Which signals or voltages should be recorded?What is the distance between the signal transmitter and the receiver?Do I need additional cables and lines?Should the control only be wired or also possible via radio?Which logic functions do I want to implement?and much more The answers will help you to make the right choice for a suitable binary input. Among other things, this results in the number of channels that your new binary input should have, which manufacturer supplies an application (software) suitable for the project and whether the binary input must be suitable for potential-free devices or not.What is the difference between the individual binary inputs?The binary inputs are often provided in the variants 20V, 24V, 230V and potential-free. Which one you need in each individual case depends on which signals you want to activate. Notice:The addition potential-free, 20V, 24V or 230V does not refer to the binary input, but to the signal to be recorded. potential-free binary inputsPotential-free means that no external voltages (potentials) may be connected to the inputs at these binary inputs, since the contact voltage (usually 10-20V) is already provided by the binary input itself. The potential-free variant is typically used for buttons, switches, door contacts (magnetic or reed contacts), window contacts (magnetic contacts) or auxiliary contacts. Magnetic contacts may often only be assigned a maximum of 20V DC. However, the maximum cable length that can be connected is often limited to between 50-100m, see the description of the respective potential-free binary input and can also be negatively influenced by inductive or capacitive loads in the area around the routed cable. Devices with wires that have already been brought out should generally not be extended at all, eg button interfaces (a button interface is also a binary input). 20V and 24V binary inputsModels with 20V or 24V are used when devices cannot switch potential-free. These are, for example, presence detectors or differential pressure monitors for stoves that work with 24V technology. 230V binary inputsThe 230 V version is often used to connect existing 230 V AC signals to the bus in order to evaluate them. For example for conventional 230V outdoor motion detectors, buttons, switches or other messages from other systems. Fuses can also be monitored in order to immediately notice critical changes in large building complexes, for example. What specific applications can be implemented with KNX binary inputs?The possibilities are diverse and depend entirely on your project. A KNX binary input detects a status change at its input. Depending on the parameterization that you carry out using the software (ETS), a telegram is then sent to the KNX bus. This information can then be integrated into other desired functional logic, for example:Open windows = set heating to standby/frost protectionLevel reached = open valveTo evaluate a conventional 230V motion detectionFor activation of conventional buttonsTo capture status or operational messagesEvaluate error messages from connected devicesand much more Or you use the information for displays on displays, for touch functions or for visualizations for evaluation purposes.What is ETS?ETS is the abbreviation for Engineering Tool Software. This is used to assign and parameterize certain actions, relationships or functions within the building automation. So you determine what a binary input should do with an incoming signal. Programming skills or learning a programming language are not required. If you are interested in logical connections and can imagine the later function in the building based on an abstract scheme, the creation of a project should be a solvable task for you.We recommendIn the case of particularly complex projects, it can be advantageous to hire an experienced system integrator to create the basic project. This is typically much faster than doing it yourself and you will receive a tested, error-free basic version of your system. Later you can easily change, add or remove individual parameters yourself.You can think of the configuration as similar to the folder system on your Windows PC or iOS computer. You create your own structure and save files in it. In addition, you create shortcuts to other files and folders based on certain conditions. In the ETS, the 'folders' are floors or rooms, for example, and the 'files' in them correspond to sensors and actuators that you can relate to one another.Can consumption also be recorded and evaluated with KNX binary inputs?At eibabo® you will also find KNX binary inputs to record counter values. You can order almost all conventional water meters, electricity meters, gas meters, heat meters and many more including an S0 interface (pronounced: S-zero interface). This is used to transmit measured consumption values for further processing in the building automation. The interface sends an impulse via a contact, which corresponds to a certain value of the measured medium. The pulse value is always the responsibility of the meter manufacturer.An example: If you buy a water meter with an S0 interface, the pulse value is on the meter or in the product description, for example 10 liters = 1 pulse. That means the contact closes and opens again (rising/falling edge, 30 ms = t_ON = 120 ms 30 ms = t_OFF) as soon as 10 liters of water have been consumed. Simply put, the signal is similar to when you press a button. You can evaluate these contacts using a KNX binary input with the application provided by the manufacturer for counting value acquisition.As a rule, potential-free 20V or 24V binary inputs are used for this, as the contact voltage may be a maximum of 15V (S0 interface class B, short transmission paths) or a maximum of 27V (S0 interface class A, long transmission paths).Are long distances critical for signal transmission?Pay attention to the technically required maximum cable lengths between signal detection and binary input contact, especially with 20V, 24V and potential-free. These are often a maximum of 100 meters and should be routed in a protected manner without inductive or capacitive cross-influences. TIP:Please refer to the manufacturer information for this. The individual brands and the different variants have individual limit values. This applies in particular when critical states are to be monitored, such as counting for billing purposes (LIYCY lines, cables).How are KNX binary inputs mounted?KNX binary inputs are available with eibabo® for different types of installation, for example for installation in an electrical distribution board. These devices are referred to as modular installation devices (REG). There are also binary inputs for flush-mounting (UP) or surface-mounting (AP) and for integration in ducts or similar (EB).Which manufacturers of KNX binary inputs are recommended?In this eibabo® catalog you will find everything on the subject of KNX binary input, binary input device, binary input module, button interface, universal interface, input module, button coupler and evaluation unit.
