Reliability is a choice
Phoenix Contact
A reliable power supply is important for the continuity of your production process. Phoenix Contact offers solutions for a systematic design of your power supply in control cabinets. By selecting solutions within the Complete Line program, products are well matched with the aim of maximizing your installation's uptime.
For a systematic design, it is important to gain insight into the grid condition beforehand. This provides insight into whether standard measures are sufficient or whether additional measures must be taken. Keywords such as overvoltage, mains pollution and overload are important here. These terms are often familiar to mains power supplies, but what about 24VDC power supply systems?
There was a time when you "just" bought a power supply, selected the power just a little bit heavier than last time because there were a few extra components in the system. These days are over. Installations are becoming more and more complex. Sensitive electronics are being used more and more and require a good quality power supply. By adding more diagnostic options also in the 24VDC area, early failure and unexpected downtime can be prevented.
It is therefore important to also monitor and secure the power supply from the entry into the control cabinet. Of course for your own installation, but also for the surrounding installations. It is important to match the right components to each other; the right power supply, short-circuit protection, overvoltage protection, redundancy and monitoring.
We take you through four short films in which we give you an idea of what is involved in making good choices.
The themes are:
1. Monitoring
2. Protection (protection against overvoltage)
3. 24V DC Power supply systems
4. Increasing availability
