Description

Foxboro PO97OBP

Technical Specifications

  • Product Type: Backplane Power Supply.
  • Input Voltage: Wide-range AC (120/240VAC) or DC (24VDC).
  • Output Voltage: Regulated 5VDC and/or 24VDC for backplane.
  • Power Output: Sufficient wattage to support a fully loaded rack.

Functional Features

  • Stable Power Delivery: Provides clean, ripple-free power to sensitive control electronics.
  • Comprehensive Protection: Over-current, over-voltage, short-circuit, and over-temperature protection.
  • Redundancy Ready: Can be paralleled with identical units for N+1 redundancy.
  • Status Monitoring: Outputs power-good signals and fault alarms to the controller.

Application Scenarios
Installed in every I/A Series control cabinet as the primary power source for the backplane and all mounted modules.

Performance Parameters

  • Ripple & Noise: <1% of output voltage.
  • Hold-up Time: Sufficient to ride through brief power interruptions.
  • Efficiency: High-efficiency switching topology (>90%).

Material Composition
High-quality magnetic components and long-life electrolytic capacitors. Metal chassis acts as a heat sink and EMI shield.

Structural Characteristics
Compact form factor with front-panel LED indicators for output voltage, current limit, and fault conditions. Screw terminals for input and output connections.

Working Principle
Uses switch-mode power conversion to step down and regulate the input voltage. Feedback loops continuously adjust the switching duty cycle to maintain a constant output voltage despite load or input variations.

Installation Requirements
Provide adequate clearance for airflow. Use properly sized wires for input and output connections. Ensure a solid earth ground connection.

Usage Precautions

  • Do not operate with a shorted output.
  • Allow the module to cool before handling after power-down.
  • Periodically check terminal tightness to prevent arcing and hot spots.
