By multiplying Volts with Amps, you can figure out Watts. You can rearrange the basic electrical power equation depending on what you need to solve.
A DIN Rail power supply converts AC input voltage into regulated DC power for industrial automation equipment, including PLCs, HMIs, sensors, relays and other control components
Choose a power supply based on your equipment’s required DC output voltage, total current consumption, power rating, AC input voltage and operating environment.
Single-phase power supplies operate from a single-phase AC input, commonly used in smaller industrial control panels and automation systems. Three-phase power supplies accept three-phase AC input, making them suitable for larger industrial installations with higher power requirements.
Our DIN Rail power supplies include built-in protection features designed to help protect the power supply and connected equipment from electrical faults. Depending on the model, these may include:
Rated power is the continuous amount of power a power supply is designed to deliver under specified operating conditions. Peak power is the higher output level that a power supply can temporarily provide to accommodate short-duration increases in demand.
The DC OK signal indicates whether the power supply’s DC output is operating within its specified voltage range.
