This unit

The Brentek DRY5 is a dry contact output module designed for industrial automation applications, providing a reliable and isolated dry contact output for interfacing with various devices and systems. This pack includes 10 modules. The DRY5 series is suitable for harsh industrial control applications due to its industrial temperature rating, fully encapsulated circuitry, and direct compatibility with industry-standard I/O mounting racks.

Limitations and Considerations

  • The DRY5 Series is not suitable for use in applications with high magnetic fields present. High current models are recommended for such applications.
  • Some sources indicate the Brentek DRY5 is discontinued by the manufacturer, though support and availability may exist through third-party suppliers.
  • Availability of documentation for specific electrical parameters (e.g., isolation voltage, maximum switching voltage) is limited.
  • Warranty information from the original manufacturer may not apply if the product is discontinued. Third-party suppliers may offer their own warranties.
