Accessories for Ekip Touch trip units

External modules
These Ekip Com modules, as well as the internal modules, allow integration in any communication
network. They can be used on the XT2, XT4 and XT5 with an Ekip Touch trip unit by using the Ekip Car-
tridge. On the XT7 and XT7 M with an Ekip Touch trip unit, they can be mounted directly on the terminal
box. Several modules can be used simultaneously enabling systems with different protocols, but also, in
case of high reliability requirements, Ekip Com R modules can be installed to guarantee system redun-
dancy. The Modbus RTU, Profibus-DP and DeviceNet™ modules contain a terminating resistor and two
dip switches for optional activation to terminate the serial network or bus. The Profibus-DP module also
— contains a polarization resistor and two dip switches for its activation. When used on the XT7 and XT7 M,

communication can be maintained with withdrawable circuit-breakers, even while they remain in the
racked-out position, by using Ekip AUP auxiliary position contacts and Ekip RTC ready to close cir-
cuit-breaker contacts.

Ekip Cartridge
The external device connected directly to the Ekip Touch trip unit of XT2, XT4 and XT5 allows most of
the connectivity modules to be used including: the Ekip Supply, Ekip Com, Ekip Link, Ekip 3T, Ekip Sig-
naling 2K and Ekip Synchro check. It is always necessary to install the Ekip Supply module. The Ekip Car-
tridge is available in two different versions: with 2 slots (1 Ekip Supply + 1 module) or with 4 slots (1 Ekip
Supply + 3 modules).
If needed, when circuit-breakers in the withdrawable version are used, it is possible to connect the po-
sition AUP contacts to the related pins of the cartridge to avoid failure messages on the communica-
tion channel. The cartridge can be installed on a DIN-rail everywhere in the panel. The cable that con-
nects the trip unit with the Ekip Cartridge is 1m long.
The external device can be also directly connected through the cable available with the new Slim Micro
24V/CAN
I/O avoiding the usage of a side connector with the trip unit.
