ST-7188 by Kollmorgen

The Kollmorgen ST-7188 module is a high-performance power distribution component within the Crevis Slice Modules family, designed to streamline industrial control architectures. Featuring an 8-point power distribution arrangement, the ST-7188 maintains separate 0VDC and 24VDC outputs grouped into two clusters of four channels each. With a robust current rating of 10 A per group and a compact slim module form factor of just 12 mm module width, this device occupies minimal panel space while delivering reliable power. The integrated < pass-through power > design ensures uninterrupted supply to downstream modules and eliminates the need for additional power drops.

Technical precision is assured by the ST-7188’s key specifications: it operates as a non-addressable on bus unit with power pass-through capabilities for daisy-chainable expansion. The module’s channels: 8 (4×0VDC + 4×24VDC) configuration simplifies discrete I/O distribution, while its module function: 0VDC & 24VDC distribution unifies supply management. At only 50 g of weight, engineers benefit from a lightweight solution that mounts securely on DIN rail, vertical & horizontal orientations. The device’s wiring simplification feature groups supplies to minimize terminal connections and optimize installation speed.

Operational resilience is built in with an operating temperature range of -20 °C to +60 °C, ensuring reliable performance across harsh industrial environments. Its form factor: compact slim module structure permits high-density installations, while the power pass-through capability supports seamless power chaining without interruption. Grouped 0VDC and 24VDC outputs reduce overall cable requirements and prevent wiring errors, enhancing cabinet aesthetics and maintenance access. With bus addressing eliminated through a non-addressable design, commissioning becomes straightforward and error-free, saving valuable engineering time.

Integration flexibility is enhanced through compatibility with GE RSTi I/O; integrated with Proficy ME systems, enabling plug-and-play connectivity in diverse automation architectures. The pass-through power topology and lack of a bus ID requirement guarantee interference-free integration with existing controllers and modules. Ideal for decentralized power distribution in manufacturing lines, packaging machines, and process automation, the ST-7188 supports scalable expansion without rewiring. Engineers selecting the ST-7188 achieve a tidy, efficient control cabinet layout and reliable power delivery to all downstream devices.
