ZTF Lāsma's wide range of power supplies also includes Modicon series power supplies. They are distinguished by their high quality and reliability, offering a wide range of applications in industrial environments. They have the usual DIN-rail mounting and offer both single-phase and three-phase connection.

In this article we will look at:

What are power supplies?

Barošanas bloksThe power supply unit is a very important component in power systems. They are mainly used in power management. They ensure proper control, protection and distribution of electricity. When highlighting industrial power supplies, their role should be emphasised in ensuring power stability and protection of various equipment and systems. Schneider Electric has developed a variety of power supplies to suit a wide range of applications, from domestic to industrial.

Power supply applications

  • Barošanas bloks balts Industrial Automation: Industrial power supplies provide power to PLCs (programmable logic controllers) and other automation components that monitor and control manufacturing and other industrial processes..
  • Power management: In industrial power management, power supplies guarantee the correct distribution of electrical energy and protection against disturbances, thus improving overall efficiency.
  • Manufacturing and Processing: many industrial components, such as production lines or processing equipment, use power supplies to ensure operation and protection against power disturbances.
  • Transport and Logistics Systems:power supplies are also used for the electrical drive and control of logistics and transport equipment, such as conveyors.

What types of power supplies exist?

In industry, there are basically two types of power supplies - transformer type and pulse type. Each type has its own characteristics and applications. It would therefore be important to choose the right type for the specific needs.

  • Impulsa barošanas bloksTransformer type power supply units are known for their high reliability and durability. They have a much longer lifetime and can often last up to 10 years under heavy loads, providing a stable power supply to equipment. However, they also have their drawbacks, such as the fact that they can be relatively heavy, weighing up to a kilogram.

 

  • TransformatorsImpulse feed for blocks have shorter lifetimes and are typically around 3 years under heavy loads. The reliability of the units depends on the robustness and operational stability of the electronic components. The biggest advantage is that pulse-type power supplies are electronically generated - they store energy in filter capacitors, which can be sufficient to cut the current during a short burst. Then, if the mains voltage drops for a short time, e.g. between 0.5 and 1 second, the power supply unit will be able to recover the current.

To make the right choice between these types of power supplies, it is necessary to take into account the task requirements and the working environment. Transformer-type power supplies are ideal when a long-lasting and reliable power supply is required, while pulse-type power supplies are useful when a short-term power supply without interruptions is required. Schneider Electric's Modicon range of power supplies offers both types of solution to meet a variety of industrial automation requirements.

To help you choose the right Schneider Electric Modicon power supply, here is a table outlining their advantages and disadvantages:

Benefits Minuses
