Alimentation système CPU série B&R X20PS9600 X20

Product Overview

The B&R X20PS9600 (X20 PS 9600) is a high-reliability system power supply module specifically engineered to provide the required voltage to the X20 CPU and its associated X2X Link bus architecture. This module acts as the primary power foundation for B&R automation controllers, ensuring stable performance in demanding industrial sectors such as machine tool manufacturing, precision assembly, and complex motion control applications. By delivering a regulated 24 VDC output with a robust contact load capacity of 10 A, the X20PS9600 protects the CPU and communication modules from fluctuations in the main supply, effectively minimizing system instability and protecting against data loss during power disturbances.

Technical Configuration

The X20PS9600 is built for deep integration within the X20 system rack, designed to manage both the X2X Link supply and internal I/O power requirements. It incorporates advanced safety features including integrated reverse polarity protection and a permanently mounted, non-replaceable fuse that ensures a failsafe operation profile. The module accepts a wide input voltage range (24 VDC -15% / +20%), providing resilience in plants with fluctuating power grids. Its compact design includes a permissible contact load of 10 A, allowing for the connection of high-demand field devices while maintaining the integrity of the primary control supply.

Technical Specifications

FAQs

Is the integrated fuse replaceable in the X20PS9600?

No, the internal fuse is an integrated safety feature and cannot be replaced. If the fuse trips, it generally indicates a significant external fault or short circuit that must be corrected before the module can be safely used again.

What is the required external protection for the input line?

A slow-blow line fuse with a maximum rating of 10 A is required on the input side to ensure proper protection of the module and the supply cabling.

How does this module handle reverse polarity?

The X20PS9600 is equipped with built-in reverse polarity protection, which prevents damage to the internal electronics if the 24 VDC input lines are accidentally swapped during installation.

Installation and Operational Guidelines

• Line Protection: Always install the mandatory 10 A slow-blow fuse on the input line. This ensures that the power supply is isolated from severe transient surges or downstream short circuits that could otherwise compromise the entire control rack.
• Thermal Considerations: When installing the module, ensure that the ventilation pathways around the X20 rack are unobstructed. Although the power consumption is efficient (1.42 W for X2X Link and 0.6 W for internal I/O), the module must maintain a proper ambient temperature to ensure the long-term reliability of the internal power conversion components.
• Power Distribution: Utilize the 10 A permissible contact load capacity to distribute power efficiently to peripheral modules, but ensure that the total power draw does not exceed the nominal output ratings. Check all terminal connections periodically to ensure they remain secure, as high-current loads (10 A) are more susceptible to heat build-up if connection resistance increases due to loose screws.
