Reliable power supply strategies for industrial automation
Weidmüller features a wide variety of centralized and decentralized power supply units – including centralized switch-mode power supplies as well as decentralized 24-VDC FieldPower®-networked switch-mode power supplies. These products allow Weidmüller to optimally support the requirements of automation applications while ensuring that plant down time is minimized.
Particularly for industrial applications, it is essential that machines and plant facilities remain constantly functional and available. A safe and reliable power supply for all components (whether for automation, signalling or networking) is a key requirement for the smooth functioning of a production system. Weidmüller offers innovative and efficient components – the PRO-M switch-mode power supplies and the decentralized PowerBox 10P SNT switch-mode power supply from the FieldPower® product line – for the installation of a 24-VDC supply system.
These power supplies are perfectly suited for centralized power supply systems or decentralized 24-VDC systems. The NetCalc project design tool supports the use of the PowerBox 10P SNT FieldPower® power supply units. It also supports the design of AC and DC systems with a variety of topologies (line or tree).
