Robust power supplies for industrial applications

April 14, 2010
B&R Industrial Automation announces its latest generation of compact, DIN rail mountable power supplies. This extensive new line ranges from 2.1 A single-phase to 40 A three-phase and can handle an input voltage range of 100-240 VAC for single-phase devices to 400-500 VAC for three-phase devices. B&R power supplies are designed to withstand tough industrial environments for optimal reliability and fuctionality. They feature a buffer module – a power back-up device which supplies standby voltage during brown-outs or load peaks for a defined period of time.  B&R power supplies tolerate ambient temperatures ranging from -25 to +70°C and feature short-circuit, overload, and continuous open-circuit protection. They have extensive worldwide agency approvals, such as  UL 508, CSA, IEC, and EN, to meet the requirements of OEMs with universal applications. Innovative connection technology for easy installationAll B&R power supplies feature sophisticated mounting mechanics for user-friendly installation. They are DIN rail mountable and feature a well-designed cooling concept for multiple mounting orientations.  Wiring is virtually done is seconds  thanks to the use of cage clamp terminals easily accessible on the front side of the power supplies.
