Overview
The Schneider Electric ABL8WPS24400 is a high-performance, regulated switch-mode power supply specifically designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial environments. Operating within a robust input voltage range of 380 to 500 V AC across three phases (L1, L2, and L3), this power supply delivers a stable 24 V DC output at 40 A, ensuring that critical equipment receives a consistent and reliable power source. With a rated power of 960 W, the ABL8WPS24400 enhances operational efficiency and minimizes downtime, making it an ideal choice for applications in material handling, packaging, and textile machinery.

Key Features and Operational Benefits
Engineered for durability, the ABL8WPS24400 incorporates an anti-harmonic filter that effectively mitigates low-frequency harmonic currents. This feature not only enhances overall power quality but also protects sensitive connected equipment from potential damage, addressing a common engineering challenge in industrial settings. The power supply boasts a power factor of 0.85 at 24 V DC, promoting efficient energy consumption and reducing operational costs. With a high-efficiency rating of 92%, it minimizes energy loss, which is critical for maintaining cost-effective operations in large-scale facilities.

A standout feature of the ABL8WPS24400 is its adjustable output voltage range, which can be fine-tuned between 24 to 28.8 V. This flexibility allows engineers to customize the power supply to meet specific application requirements, accommodating varying load conditions. Additionally, the unit supports a temporary current boost of up to 1.5 times the nominal current for 4 seconds, providing essential support during peak demand periods and ensuring uninterrupted operation of machinery.

Robust Protection and Safety Features
Safety is paramount in industrial applications, and the ABL8WPS24400 is equipped with comprehensive protection mechanisms against overloads, overvoltage, short circuits, and undervoltage conditions. These features safeguard both the power supply and connected devices from electrical hazards, ensuring reliable performance even in demanding environments. The unit complies with international safety standards, including CSA C22.2 No 60950-1, UL 508, and EN/IEC 60950-1, providing engineers with confidence in its safety and reliability.
