DC Power Supply Characteristics
This section provides the characteristics of the DC power supply.
If the specified voltage range is not maintained, outputs may not switch as expected. Use appropriate safety interlocks and voltage monitoring circuits.

FIRE HAZARD |
|
oUse only the correct wire sizes for the maximum current capacity of the I/O channels and power supplies. |
|
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury. |
|
|
|
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION |
|
Do not exceed any of the rated values specified in the environmental and electrical characteristics tables. |
|
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
DC Power Supply Characteristics
The 24 Vdc power supplies must be rated Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) or Protective Extra Low Voltage (PELV) according to IEC 61140. These power supplies are isolated between the electrical input and output circuits of the power supply.

|
POTENTIAL OF OVERHEATING AND FIRE |
|
oDo not connect the equipment directly to line voltage. oUse only isolating PELV or SELV power supplies to supply power to the equipment1. |
|
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage. |
1For compliance to UL (Underwriters Laboratories) requirements, the power supply must also conform to the various criteria of NEC Class 2, and be inherently current limited to a maximum power output availability of less than 100 VA (approximately 4 A at nominal voltage), or not inherently limited but with an additional protection device such as a circuit breaker or fuse meeting the requirements of clause 9.4 Limited-energy circuit of UL 61010-1. In all cases, the current limit should never exceed that of the electric characteristics and wiring diagrams for the equipment described in the present documentation. In all cases, the power supply must be grounded, and you must separate Class 2 circuits from other circuits. If the indicated rating of the electrical characteristics or wiring diagrams are greater than the specified current limit, multiple Class 2 power supplies may be used.
