Mico Pro®
Flexible 24V Current Monitoring
MICO Pro® is the innovative current monitoring system from Murrelektronik for 12 and 24 V DC applications with patented tripping process. The modular system enables you to adapt systems precisely to suit specific applications – offering a favorable cost-benefit ratio while also being economical in their use of space. The patented tripping process assures optimum machine availability. An additional benefit: an integrated concept for potential distribution that significantly declutters the switch cabinet wiring.
You can select between modules with one, two, or four output channels. On the Fix modules, the tripping currents (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 16 A) are fixed which makes them a tamper-proof solution. On the Flex modules, the tripping current can be adjusted at the touch of a button from 1 to 10 A or from 11 to 20 A. Their narrow width of 8, 12, or 24 millimeters enables significant savings in space. Up to 30,000 µF can be loaded per channel. So it's possible to monitor a number of high capacitive loads with one device.
MICO Pro can be cascaded. This means: on a MICO channel with a tripping current of more than 10 A, another MICO Pro station can be connected.
New switch-mode power supplies with an output current of 5 or 10 A can be integrated directly into MICO Pro® stations. This combination creates more space inside the control cabinet because it replaces the power module. The switch-mode power supply continues to support features like general alarm message, 90 percent early warning, control signal for remote maintenance. You can also supply up to 20 A of power by enabling the parallel mode. Energy efficiency is high, keeping control cabinet temperatures low. With practical bridges that snap in, the switch-mode power supply devices can be connected to the monitoring modules in a few easy steps, without the need for extra wiring.
The intelligent current monitoring system from Murrelektronik can be fully customized to optimally meet the needs of the application. The new online configurator makes this process easy.
- Modularity – precise right down to the last channel
- Integrated potential distribution concept – significantly simplifies switch cabinet wiring
- Practical handling – assembly without tools
- Diagnostics – on the module or via the PLC
- Channel-specific switching – replaces the coupling level
MICO Basic
MICO Basic is Murrelektronik's intelligent power distribution module for 24 V DC applications. It monitors the power distribution and reacts to short circuits by shutting the channel down as late as possible but as early as necessary. MICO Basic is perfect for any application that protection a lot of sensors and actuators with similar demands. The current ranges are preset and the modules monitor four or eight channels with 2, 4 or 6 A.

MICO Fuse
MICO Fuse is the ideal alternative to using individual safety terminals. The compact module features eight sockets for glass tube fuses that can easily be serviced from the front of the module. It protects up to eight channels. The MICO FUSE 24 LED version has additional LEDs that indicate the operating condition of each channel in red and green. A group alarm contact sends the current status to the control. The universal module MICO Fuse 250 covers the complete range from 0 to 250 V AC/DC.
Convenient monitoring with glass tube fuses
- 8 output channels accessible from the front

- Common voltage supply for all channels
- Minimal wiring work
- Various labeling options
- Total current up to 40 A
MICO+
MICO+ is the intelligent power distribution module from Murrelektronik for 24 and 48 V DC applications. This cabinet component monitors currents on up to four channels. It indicates when approaching the maximum load and it shuts the channel off if there's a short circuits or overload.
The electronic circuit control for 24 and 48 V DC
- 4 output channels
- Adjustable current ranges
- Remote start and switch off with a 24 and 48 V DC signal (depending on the device)
- Group alarm contact
- Minimal power loss
- Temperature independent
