Allen-Bradley 1794-PS3 Flex I/O Power Supply

Product Introduction

The Allen-Bradley 1794-PS3 is a dedicated power supply module for the Flex I/O distributed I/O platform. It converts AC line voltage into a regulated 24V DC output. This power is essential for operating the backplane and connected adapters. The 1794-PS3 eliminates the need for external power wiring for each module. It simplifies system design and reduces installation costs. Users trust this module for its robust performance and wide input flexibility.

Technical Specifications

The 1794-PS3 operates with a nominal input of 120V AC or 230V AC. It supports a broad voltage range of 85-264VAC and a frequency range of 47-63 Hz. This universal input makes it suitable for global deployments.

The maximum input current is 1.9 A. It can withstand a typical inrush current of 40 A for one AC cycle at 265V AC. This feature protects the module and the system from surges.

On the output side, the 1794-PS3 provides a nominal 24V DC output. The output voltage range is 20.4 to 27.6V DC, which includes noise and ripple. The output current capability depends on the mounting orientation. It delivers 3 A when mounted horizontally. For all other mounting positions, the output is 2.8 A.

The total output power is 72 Watts. The output ripple is a maximum of 1200 mV peak-to-peak. The power supply also features a hold-up time. The output remains within specification if the input drops out for half a cycle at 47 Hz and 85V AC with a maximum load.

Furthermore, the 1794-PS3 offers comprehensive protection. It has overcurrent protection set at 3.2 A. It also includes overvoltage protection at 35V DC. The isolation voltage between input and output is 2500V DC, ensuring safety.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The 1794-PS3 is built for industrial environments. Its operating temperature range is from 0 °C to +55 °C (+32 °F to +131 °F). The module can withstand operating shocks of 30 g. It also tolerates operating vibration of 5 g at 10 to 500 Hz.

Thermal dissipation is rated at 41.0 BTU/hr. Maximum power dissipation is 12 W. The module's dimensions are 3.7 x 2.7 x 3.4 inches. It has an open-style enclosure and is lightweight for easy handling. The leakage current is a maximum of 0.5 mA RMS.

Installation Guide

Installing the 1794-PS3 is straightforward. It is designed for flexible mounting options. You can mount it either horizontally or vertically. Use a standard DIN rail for quick snap-in installation. Alternatively, you can use a panel mount for more permanent fixtures.

Ensure the system power is off before beginning the installation. Slide the module onto the DIN rail or mount it to the panel. Connect the AC input wiring to the designated terminals. Then, connect the DC output wiring to the backplane or system load. Always maintain proper isolation between the DC output and AC input terminals.

Important: The maximum output current is 3 A for horizontal mounting and 2.8 A for vertical or other mountings. Plan your load accordingly to stay within these limits. This ensures reliable operation and prevents overcurrent trips.
