The Quint Power 48 V/5 A universal power supply from Phoenix Contact enhances the line of special output voltages for mechanical engineering, long routing paths or LED lighting.
The 48 V devices open up new possibilities for many areas of application: The 48 V/5 A single-phase power supply and the 48 V/10 A and 48 V/20 A three-phase modules ensure low power loss in the case of long routing paths. In mechanical engineering, eg, in printing presses, they can be used for reliably operating motors with a high starting moment, even in the case of dirt build-up. The devices can also be used for LED lighting with 40 V input voltage.
The international certification package and wide-range input enable use on all common AC and DC power grids worldwide. On unstable networks, the power supply provides output power for more than 20 ms and permanently if one phase is lost. A power reserve, the Power Boost, reliably starts loads with high startup currents. A zero-voltage relay contact and an active transistor switching output provide preventive function monitoring capabilities with clear LED signalling.
