Application manual
For today’s applications, e.g. in control engineering, it is
essential to make the right decision regarding the selection
and planning of the power supply unit. Incorrect dimensioning
or incorrect connection of a power supply unit can seriously
affect the safety and/or availability of the entire installation.
ABB’s “Power Supply Units” application manual provides a
general overview of switch mode power supply units, thus
helping you to choose the ideal power supply unit and avoid
problems during engineering and commissioning. The manual
generally shows and explains the fundamental characteristics
of and the differences between power supply units, and provides a detailed introduction to the ABB product range on the
basis of the selection criteria. Finally, it describes and explains
application examples for engineering.
The manual is available in English and German.

Safety
Closed construction. Touch-proof connecting terminals.
Electrical isolation. Approval by independent testing institutes
with regard to all relevant international standards guarantees
maximum safety in operation.
Fast mounting
Fast, easy and fail-safe mounting on a DIN rail using sturdy
metal snap sliders.
Clear labelling
High ease of use thanks to clearly labelled terminals, thus
further facilitating wiring campaigns.
LED
OUTPUT OK LED for status indication of output.
Primary switch mode technology for maximum
efficiency
All CP range devices are power supply units with primary
switch mode technology. This technology reduces heat loss
and ensures maximum efficiency.
Wide range of AC or DC supply voltages
Due to the primary switch mode technology the CP range
power supply units can be operated with both AC or DC
supply voltages. Therefore they are often used in highly
fluctuating networks and battery-powered plants.
Ambient temperature range of up to +70°C
The lifetime of any electronic device depends on the weakest
electronic component. Due to the fact that heat stresses the
components, practically all components used in the CP
range power supply unit are rated for 105°C. This guarantees
a “long” lifetime.
