Electronic Circuit Breaker DC (compact & modular)
MICO67
DECENTRALIZED CIRCUIT AND DEVICE PROTECTION DIRECTLY IN THE FIELD
Protect, distribute, and monitor loads exactly where they occur: directly at the machine. MICO67 combines power distribution and electronic fusing in a robust IP67 module. In the event of a fault, MICO67 reliably shuts down before circuit overload or device damage occur. The integrated total current monitoring keeps track of the total load and reliably protects the module from overload. Thanks to its robust and compact design, MICO67 is designed for reliable use in all industrial applications.
With MICO67, you can bring protection directly to the machine and to the load being protected. Instead of centrally protecting long cables, you distribute and protect loads in a decentralized and modular way.
This results in the following advantages:
- Reduced wiring: more options for more flexible and faster installation
- Standard-compliant reduction in wire cross-section: saves material, space, and costs
- More space in the control cabinet: protection and power distribution functions directly in the field
- Channel-specific shutdown: faults are quickly identified and resolved promptly
MICO67 uses L-coded M12 connectors for field power supply and load outputs, which support currents of up to 6 A. The integrated total current monitoring keeps track of the total load and reliably protects the module against overload. This makes the system ideally suited for high-performance and robust installations in decentralized machine and plant environments.
- Decentralized protection to IP67
- M12 L-coded up to 6 A or M12 A-coded up to 4 A and NEC Class 2*
- Quick and easy maintenance
- Diagnostic contact with alarm output and reset input
- dard-compliant and easy cross-section reduction in the field
- Single-channel diagnostics and total current monitoring
Mico Pro®
MICO Pro is the innovative current monitoring system for 12 and 24 V DC applications featuring patented tripping process. Its modular design enables you to adapt systems precisely to suit specific applications – offering a favorable cost-benefit ratio while maximizing space savings. In addition, MICO Pro increases machine availability and significantly simplifies control cabinet wiring thanks to its integrated potential distribution.
Flexible 24 V current monitoring
- One, two, or four output channels
- Fix Modules: fixed tripping currents (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, or 16 A) for a tamper-proof solution
- Flex Modules: tripping current adjustable at the touch of a button (1–10 A or 11–20 A)
- Particularly space-saving (8, 12, and 24 mm)
- Inrush capacity of up to 30,000 µF per channel
- Cascaded configuration possible: an additional MICO Pro station can be connected to a MICO channel with a tripping current exceeding 10 A
- Collective alarm signal, 90-percent early warning, and control signal for remote maintenance
- High energy efficiency for low control cabinet temperatures
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.

- Preset tripping currents: 2, 4 or 6 A
- Saves space! Requires 66% less space compared to circuit breakers
- Remote start with a 24 V DC signal
- Group alarm contact
- Minimal power loss
- Temperature independent
- Perfect shut-down function: as early as necessary, as late as possible
MICO Classic
MICO Classic is the intelligent power distribution module from Murrelektronik for 24 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 V DC
- 2 or 4 output channels
- Adjustable current ranges
- Remote start with a 24 V DC signal

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
