- 5 and 10 ampere power supply for the Simatic ET 200SP
- Flat format for use on distribution boards
- Current monitor for early fault detection and energy management
- Shutdown and isolation of the 24 V supply simplify commissioning and maintenance of the system
Siemens is bringing onto the market the Simatic ET 200SP PS, a single-phase power supply for the Simatic ET 200SP distributed I/O system. The 24 volt power supplies from the Sitop product family supply rated currents of 5 and 10 amperes, and their design, construction and functionality are optimally matched to the distributed controller. An on/off switch for the 24 volts, and plug-in terminals for three load circuits simplify the commissioning and maintenance of the system. The power supply has a current monitor that outputs the momentary output current and enables, for example, optimization of the energy management. A mounting depth of a mere 75 mm allows the power supply to be used on flat distribution boards.
