Engineering Advantages

The 1606-XLE960DX-3N optimizes high-power distribution in heavy industrial environments:

High-Current Density: Providing 40A of current from a compact chassis allows for the consolidation of multiple smaller power supplies. This reduces DIN rail footprint and simplifies the DC distribution bus within the cabinet.

Direct 480V Integration: The module accepts 480V AC directly. This eliminates the need for expensive and bulky control power transformers (CPT), reducing both the overall weight of the enclosure and the hardware cost of the power circuit.

Proactive Thermal Management: Advanced circuitry minimizes heat generation even at full 960W loads. This prevents the "hot-spot" effect within the cabinet, protecting adjacent PLCs and sensitive I/O modules from heat-induced premature aging.

Dynamic Voltage Calibration: The adjustable output voltage allows engineers to compensate for voltage drops across long cable runs. This ensures that field devices receive precisely the required voltage, maintaining signal integrity and solenoid performance.

Remote Status Diagnostics: The DC-OK signal facilitates remote monitoring. If the output voltage deviates from safe parameters, the signal triggers an alert to the controller, allowing for an orderly system shutdown before a total power loss occurs.

FAQs

Can I parallel multiple 1606-XLE960DX-3N units for higher current?

Yes, these units support parallel operation to increase total output current or provide redundancy. Ensure you follow the specific load-sharing guidelines in the installation manual to prevent one unit from carrying the entire load.

What type of wiring should I use for a 40A load?

Due to the 40A output, you must use appropriately sized heavy-gauge copper wire to prevent overheating and voltage drop. Ensure the screw terminals are tightened to the specified torque to maintain a low-resistance connection.

Is this unit compatible with three-phase 480V systems?

The 1606-XLE960DX-3N typically utilizes 480V input. Verify your specific phase configuration (Single-phase or Three-phase input depending on the terminal markings) against your local grid to ensure correct phase balance.

How do I verify the authenticity of this power supply?

We sell only 100% Brand New original hardware. Each 1606-XLE960DX-3N arrives in its original factory packaging with the authentic UPC (612598713318), serial number, and factory-sealed documentation.
