3.2.3.2 Power Supply with Power Rail
For devices with a 24 V DC supply voltage, use of the Power Rail reduces wiring and
installation costs. The Power Rail almost completely eliminates the risk of wiring faults and
facilitates expansion.
Power is supplied to the Power Rail via a power feed module which provides a voltage of
24 V DC (max. 4 A) to a maximum of 80 devices.
The power feed module features a replaceable 5 A fuse at the front. This fuse ensures that the
Power Rail and connecting contacts are protected. It prevents damage caused by reverse
supply voltage or by installing too many isolators. The isolators on the Power Rail feature
integrated device fuses. Any faults in the isolator or in the signal leads do not affect the
Power Rail supply system. The 5 A fuse permits a rated current of up to 4 A across the entire
temperature range.
The power feed module also has the task of outputting a collective error message or power
failure of the isolators via a separate relay output.
Alternatively, supply of the Power Rail can be provided using the power supply
KFA6-STR-1.24.*. In this case, no collective error message is possible.
