This ABL8 buffer module supplies direct current voltage. It has a rated input of 24V to 28.8V DC, a rated output current of 40A at 24V DC. This buffer module is designed to provide power during consumption surges or during short network power losses. It provides temporary backup power in case of deep voltage sags and breaks, without the use of batteries. It weighs 1,200kg. It is a functionnal module for power supply for industrial use, rail mounting. It conforms to UL 508, CSA C22.2 No 60950-1 standards. It is certified by EAC, RCM. This functional module is mainly compatible with Modicon ABL8RP and Modicon ABL8WP Universal power supplies. It has LED diagnostics indicator available in the front for troubleshooting instantly. It installs on DIN rail. It brings energy to your automated systems. Designed for simple machines and applications, modular power supplies are primarily appreciated for their extreme compactness.
