DIN Rail Power Supplies with an Integrated Condition Display

PULS supports its customers with a growing lineup of smart power supplies. The devices provide direct access to a large range of highly informative datasets that help to monitor, analyze, and optimize the complete power supply concept of any machinery, from the quality of the power grid, to the AC input and the DC output, as well as the DC distribution.

The CP10.248 (24 V, 10 A, 240 W) and CP20.248 (24 V, 20 A, 480 W) are DIN rail-mountable 1-phase input power supplies from PULS, which provide a floating, stabilized, and galvanically separated SELV/PELV output voltage. These devices also have an integrated condition display, which shows real-time and recorded data informing about the condition of the power supply. A DC-OK signal, an alarm signal, and remote ON/OFF make the unit suitable for many applications, where preventive function monitoring and remote control can help to avoid costly downtimes.

The devices also offer PowerBoost, power reserves of 20%, which may be used continuously at temperatures up to +45°C. Additionally, both units can deliver 5 times the nominal output current for 5 ms, which helps to trip fuses on faulty output branches. These devices are also equipped with a single use/parallel use feature, which enables a load sharing between power supplies when they are connected in parallel.

Many devices from PULS are available with an integrated HMI, ranging from simple LED bars indicating voltage, current settings of e-fuses, and output loads to the unique, built-in condition display in the CP10.248 and CP20.248. This makes the direct monitoring and analyzing of applications possible.

Simple signaling relay ports: data from signal ports is directly available to PLCs via digital I/O ports or can be used to directly drive operator signal lamps. Typical signals are DC-OK and AC fail to provide basic and fast indication of the device status. Simple remote control functions, like ON/OFF control, are also available.
