Weidmüller PRO RM redundancy modules
30 August 2018
With PRO RM, Weidmüller presents three new redundancy modules for decoupling the outputs of parallel switched-mode power supplies.
The switched-mode power supplies are ideal for supplying the power for controls and other comparable devices found in panels. With an efficiency ratio of over 90% and a long service life, they save on energy and costs. These devices, for industrial and data centre applications, deliver MTBF times of > 500,000 hours and long service lives. The addition of redundancy can significantly increase equipment availability for particularly critical systems, such as automotive industry production lines. In such cases, several power supplies are switched in parallel to guarantee operation even if one power supply drops out.
Three new redundancy modules: the PRO RM 10 for input currents of up to 2 x 12 A and a permanent output current of 24 A, the PRO RM 20 with up to 2 x 24 A (in) and 48 A (out) and the PRO RM 40 with up to 2 x 48 A (in) and 96 A (out). The input voltage can be between 10 and 32 V DC. The PRO RM devices deliver high performance in a very small space. LED indication and a status relay enables permanent status monitoring and rapid state diagnostics. The PRO RM international approval certifications include cULus, Class I, Div. 2 and ATEX.
