Note
NE 21 and IEC 61131-2
For compliance with NAMUR Recommendation NE 21 and IEC 61131-2, use only power
supplies (230 V AC --> 24 V DC) with bridging of supply failures of at least 20 ms. You can find
up-to-date information on PS components on the Internet (http://
mall.automation.siemens.com).

Connect the M and L+ wires of a power supply to the connectors X80/X81.
● The power supply is connected using two 2-pin plugs (plug-in terminal blocks).
● A redundant power supply can be connected (plug connectors X80 and X81).
– Both inputs are decoupled.
– The ground connections of the plugs (1M and 2M) are connected to each other in the
CFU.
– There is no load distribution.
– With redundant infeed, the power supply unit with the higher output voltage supplies the
device exclusively.
● Two contacts each are located over each other for each potential (L+ and M). This ensures
that the power supply can be looped through (current: maximum 10 A).
● The power supply has a high-impedance connection with the housing to enable an
ungrounded installation.
