Allen-Bradley 1606-XLDC92D DC/DC Converter
The 1606-XLDC92D belongs to the Bulletin 1606-XL series. Rockwell Automation designed this converter for 24 V DC distribution systems. It takes a 24 V DC input and produces a regulated 24 V DC output. Rated power reaches 92 W. The output carries NEC Class 2 rating, which limits energy for safer wiring. Engineers use it to create isolated Class 2 branches from a main 24 V bus. Its slim 32 mm housing saves valuable DIN rail space.
Technical Specifications
Input voltage is 24 V DC nominal. The official product page lists an input range of 14 to 32.4 V DC. Output voltage is 24 V DC nominal. The unit delivers 3.8 A nominal current. Rated power is 92 W. Efficiency is 90.5% typical, which keeps heat generation low. Ripple and noise stay at 50 mV maximum. These values support stable operation of sensitive downstream devices.
Additionally, the NEC Class 2 output limits available energy. This simplifies wiring rules and improves circuit safety. Spring terminals allow fast wiring without special tools. Moreover, DIN rail mounting simplifies panel assembly and replacement. However, this model has no DC OK relay contact, so status monitoring is not available.
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
The converter measures 124 mm in height, 32 mm in width, and 102 mm in depth. It weighs just 425 g. The IP20 protection rating suits enclosed cabinet installation. Operating temperature spans -25 to +70 °C. Storage temperature and relative humidity are not published by the manufacturer. These ratings support reliable use in typical industrial settings.
Installation Guide
First, mount the 1606-XLDC92D on a standard 35 mm DIN rail. Next, connect the 24 V DC input wires to the spring terminals. Then wire the Class 2 output to the load circuit. After that, check input polarity carefully, since reverse polarity can damage the unit. Finally, verify the output voltage with a multimeter before energizing the load. Keep clearance above and below the housing for airflow.
