Power supply unit INTERFACE Data sheet 102894_en_02 1 Description PHOENIX CONTACT 2010-12-27 Features MINI POWER is the extremely slim power supply unit with constructional widths of 22.5 mm, 45 mm and 67.5 mm. In addition to a 24 V version with output currents of 1.3 A, 2 A and 4 A, special voltages with 5 V/3 A and ±15 V/1 A and 10 V...15 V/2 A and 8 A are also available. A reliable starting of complex loads is ensured by a power reserve of up to 100% the POWER BOOST. The high operational reliability is thus dependably guaranteed in complex global networks as well. MINI POWER also functions in applications where static voltage dips, transient failures of the supply voltage or phase failure are to be expected. Generously dimensioned capacitors guarantee a mains buffering of more than 20 ms under full load. Reliable power supply unit even at high ambient temperatures Reliable starting of difficult loads with static POWER BOOST power reserve Can be used worldwide in all industrial sectors due to a wide-range input and an international approval package High operating safety due to long mains buffering under full load and high MTBF (> 500,000 h) DANGER OF EXPLOSION Only remove equipment when it is disconnected and not in the potentially explosive area. DANGER Components with dangerously high voltage and high stored energy are located in the device Never carry out work on live parts Depending on the ambient temperature and the load, the housing can become very hot Make sure you always use the latest documentation. It can be downloaded from the product at www.phoenixcontact.net/catalog.

13 Signaling For function monitoring, there is the active switching output and the LED. State 1 State 2 " " LED ON OFF Active switching U = 24 V (in reference to " ") U = 0 V (in reference to " ") output Meaning Normal operation of the power supply unit (U OUT > 21.5 V) 1. The output voltage is less than 21.5 V. There is a secondary consumer short-circuit or overload. 2. There is no input voltage or there is a device fault. - - Active signal output The 24 V signal is applied between the " " and "-" connecting terminal blocks and can carry up to 20 ma. When the output voltage drops below 21.5 V, this signal output signals by switching from "active high" to "low". The signal is decoupled from the power output. It is thus not possible for parallel switched devices to provide external supply. The 24 V signal can be directly connected to a logic input for evaluation. 102894_en_02 PHOENIX CONTACT 11

14 Function Output characteristic curve The device can supply a nominal output current of 1.3 A with ambient temperatures of up to 60 C. At an ambient temperature of up to 40 C, the device supplies a continuous output current of 1.6 A. At temperatures up to 60 C, the POWER BOOST provides a transient output current of 1.6 A for a few minutes. In the event of a higher load, the operating point follows the U/I characteristic curve depicted in the figure. In the case of overload or short-circuit, the full output current I BOOST is supplied permanently with reduced output voltage, the device does not switch off. As soon as the overload or short-circuit is no longer present, the full secondary voltage is once again available. The U/I characteristic curve ensures that both heavily capacitive loads and devices with / converters in the primary circuit can be fed without problems using MINI POWER. Downstream fuses are triggered reliably. Selectivity in the design of your system is guaranteed at all times. U N = 24 V I N = 1.3 A I BOOST = 1.6 A U [V] OUT U N I N I BOOST I OUT [A] Thermal behavior Output current [A] I BOOST I N 0-25 20 40 60 Ambient temperature [ C] The device can supply a nominal output current of 1.3 A with ambient temperatures of up to 60 C. At an ambient temperature of up to 40 C, the device supplies a continuous output current of 1.6 A. At temperatures up to 60 C, the POWER BOOST provides a transient output current of 1.6 A for a few minutes. For ambient temperatures above 60 C, the output current must be reduced by 2.5% per Kelvin increase in temperature. From 70 C onwards or in the case of thermal overload, the device reduces the output capacity for its own protection, and returns to normal operation when it has cooled down. 102894_en_02 PHOENIX CONTACT 12

Parallel operation Devices of the same type can be connected in parallel to increase both redundancy and power. By default upon delivery, no further adjustments are required. If the output voltage is adjusted, a uniform distribution of power is guaranteed by setting all parallel operated power supply units to exactly the same output voltage. To ensure symmetrical current distribution we recommend that all cable connections from the power supply unit to the busbar are the same length and have the same cross section. Depending on the system, for parallel connection of more than two power supplies a protective circuit should be installed at each individual device output (e.g., decoupling diode, fuse or circuit breaker). This prevents high return currents in the event of a secondary device fault. Redundant operation I N I N Σ =I N Redundant circuits are suitable for the supply of systems which make especially high requirements on the operational safety. If a fault occurs in the primary circuit of the first power supply unit, the second device automatically takes over the entire power supply, without interruption, and vice versa. For this reason, the power supply units to be connected in parallel are dimensioned in such a way that the total current requirement of all consumers can be completely covered by one power supply unit. 100% redundancy makes external decoupling diodes necessary (QUINT-DIODE/40, Order No. 2938963) I N I N Increased performance For n parallel connected devices, the output current can be increased to n x I N. Parallel connection for increasing power is used when extending existing systems. A parallel connection is recommended if the power supply unit does not cover the current consumption of the most powerful load. Otherwise, the load should be divided between individual devices that are independent from one another. Σ =2xI N 102894_en_02 PHOENIX CONTACT GmbH & Co.
