Product Description:

The 8BVR0220H000.100-1 belongs to the 8BVR Temperature Sensor Connectors series produced by B & R Automation. As a field-installed connector, it links T-class temperature probes to the control cabinet and transfers both measurement signals and supply power in an industrial automation line. By integrating sensor wiring into a single housing, the unit simplifies service access while preserving signal integrity inside machinery that operates under standard factory conditions. Its layout also helps keep field conductors organized at the cabinet boundary, which supports clear routing between the sensor side and the control side.

The connector carries a continuous load of 22.5 Aeff, which is the steady-state current the internal conductors can handle without excessive heating. Momentary inrush events can be accommodated at a peak value of 56 Aeff, which helps absorb short startup surges from connected circuits. A winding inductance of 2 mH adds predictable impedance that smooths rapid current changes between the sensor loop and the controller. Under maximum thermal stress, the housing dissipates 130 W, so cabinet airflow must remove that heat to keep internal parts within their rated temperature range. The enclosure meets an IP20 rating, shielding personnel from live parts while remaining open for convection cooling, and it is also assigned to overvoltage category III for installation on fixed industrial mains up to 600 V.

Overall height is 270 mm, width is 245 mm, and depth is 103 mm, allowing direct wall mounting on the panel backplane as required by the specified cooling arrangement. With a mass of 15.4 kg, the housing should be fastened to a rigid surface so it remains stable during operation. The permitted mounting position is standing horizontally, which helps maintain airflow across the heat-dissipating fins. Operation is allowed at elevations up to 4000 m without derating. The unit connects sensor leads to dedicated T+ and T- terminals so field wiring remains clear and easy to follow.
