Modicon Power Supply​​​​​​​

Schneider Electric replaces Phaseo ABL power supplies with new range of Modicon ABL power supplies

The Modicon ABL switch mode power supply offer is designed to provide the DC voltage necessary for the automation system equipment control circuits. Modicon industrial power supplies are regulated switch mode power supplies, available in 3 types: ABLM Modular, ABLS Optimized, and ABL8RP/WP Universal. 
 

They are fully electronic with a regulated output voltage. The use of electronics makes it possible to significantly improve the performance of these power supplies, which offer: 

  • Compact dimensions 
  • Integrated overload, short-circuit, overvoltage, and undervoltage protection
  • Wide input voltage range
  • High degree of output voltage stability
  • Efficiency - Diagnostics via LEDs on the front panel
  • Remote diagnostics via relay contact with ABL8RP/WP Universal


They deliver a stabilized DC output voltage that is precise to less than 3%, whatever the load from an AC line supply, within the following ranges:

  • 100 to 240 Vac for phase-to-neutral (N-L1) or phase-to-phase (L1- L2) connections for the ABLM Modular, ABLS Optimized and ABL8RPM universal types
  • 100 to 500 Vac for phase-to-neutral (N-L1) or phase-to-phase (L1- L2) connections for the ABL8RPS Universal types
  • 380 to 500 Vac for 3-phase connections (L1-L2-L3) for the ABL8WP Universal types 
  • They comply with IEC standards and are certified to comply with the major certifications bureau standards (1). Power supplies with 24 Vdc output and power output equal or lower than 90 W are also NEC Class 2 and Limited Power Source compliant (Except ABL8RPS24030)
  • The harmonic pollution is reduced to a minimum level across the entire Modicon power supply types, ensuring compliance with the requirements of standard IEC/EN 61000-3-2


​​​​​​​Modicon power supplies incorporate: 

  • An output voltage adjustment potentiometer to help compensate for any line voltage drops in installations with long cable runs (3) 
  • Direct mounting on 35 mm (1.37 in) omega rail

Protective extra low voltage (PELV) and Safety extra low voltage (SELV) 

The Modicon power supplies can be used to supply protection extra low voltage (PELV) or safety extra low voltage (SELV) control circuits in compliance with standard IEC/EN 60364-4-41. 
They have the following characteristics: 

  • Double insulated between the input circuit (connected to the line supply) and the low voltage output circuit via an integrated isolation transformer 
  • Internal circuitry limiting the output voltage to less than 60 V under single fault conditions


Harmonic pollution (power factor)​​​​​​​


The current drawn by a power supply is not sinusoidal. This leads to the generation of harmonic currents that pollute the distribution network. European standard IEC/EN 61000-3-2 limits the harmonic currents produced by power supplies. This standard covers devices between 75 and 1000 W, drawing up to 16 A per phase, and connected directly to the public distribution network. Modicon ABL8RP/WP Universal and ABLS Optimized from 75 W power supplies conform to IEC/EN 61000-3-2 and can therefore be connected directly to public distribution networks. Since ABLM Modular, ABLS1A12062,ABLS1A24021, and ABLS1A24031 power supplies have power ratings that are less than 75 W, they are not subject to the requirements of standard IEC/EN 61000-3-2. They can therefore be connected directly to public distribution networks.
 

Modicon ABLM Modular-serie power supply

The ABLM Modula-serie meets the needs of simple automation systems with power ratings from 10 to 60 W and an output voltage of 5, 12 or 24 Vdc.

  • The shape and compact nature of the housing mean that it can be mounted directly on a panel, in a modular distribution panel or on a omega rail in a cabinet
  • Modicon ABLM Modular power supply conform to the Overvoltage Category III and therefore can be directly connected to central distribution boards. In the event of an overload the power supply protection interrupts power; when the source of the overload has been corrected, the power supply reverts to its nominal state (automatic reset)

Presentation:​​​​​​​

The Modicon ABLM Modular are regulated power supplies designed to supply control circuits in industrial and building automation up to 60 W.
 

  • Thanks to their modular housing, they can be installed either in enclosures (Spacial and Thalassa) or industrial panels by clipping on omega (DIN) rail 
  • Direct, fixed mounting on panel is also possible without additional parts thanks to the integrated mounting lugs 
  • Available with 18, 36 and 53 mm (0.70, 1.41, and 2.09 in) widths, ABLM modular power supplies are one of the most compact ranges on the market 
  • Modicon ABLM Modular power supply meet NEC Class 2 and LPS (Limited Power Source) requirements
  • Modicon ABLM Modular power supply conform to the Overvoltage Category III and therefore can be directly connected to central distribution boards  
  • A ‘QR’- code is printed on the front of the power supplies and gives a direct access to the latest technical documentation
  • Modicon ABLM Modular power supplies are the right choice for use with Zelio logic Smart relays.
