Smart power supply
23 February 2026
OMRON'S S8AS2 smart power supply is an innovative and compact solution that combines DC power supply, electronic circuit protection, and real-time monitoring in a single, panel-mountable unit.

The S8AS2 is designed for factory automation and industrial control panels, helping reduce panel space requirements, wiring complexity, and downtime. It integrates functions that are typically implemented using multiple components, including a power supply, circuit protectors, monitoring devices, and terminal blocks. By consolidating these elements into one unit, the system reduces the number of components required in the control cabinet and simplifies panel design and wiring.
Each output channel of the S8AS2 is equipped with independent electronic circuit protection. In the event of an overload or short circuit, only the affected channel is shut down, allowing other circuits to continue operating. The outputs are UL Class 2 compliant, supporting safer system design and easier compliance with applicable standards.
In addition to power delivery, the S8AS2 provides continuous monitoring of output voltage, current, temperature, and channel status. Operating data is available via an integrated digital display, enabling faster troubleshooting and easier verification during commissioning and maintenance. This built-in monitoring also supports predictive maintenance by allowing early detection of abnormal operating conditions.
By combining multiple functions in one unit, the S8AS2 reduces panel space and wiring. It can be used across a range of industries, including automotive manufacturing, where it has been validated under harsh conditions.
he S8AS2 smart power supply is designed for automation engineers, panel builders, system integrators, and maintenance teams seeking a practical hardware solution for smarter power distribution in industrial automation systems.
