Redundancy Modules create flexible N+1 dc power systems.

Press Release Summary:




Designed for use with SDN-P Performance Series Power Supplies, DIN rail mount redundancy modules incorporate isolation diodes for extra protection along with visual and dry contact signaling. They are capable of isolating 2 SDN-P units to create no-single-point of failure redundant design and come with parallel use selector switch and accessible screw terminations. Models SDN2.5-20RED and SDN3040RED cover power supply line from 60-960 W.

Sola/Hevi-Duty Redundancy Modules Create Reliable N + 1 DC Power Systems



ROSEMONT, IL, November 29, 2004 Sola/Hevi-Duty, a worldwide leader in power quality solutions, has introduced a line of DIN Rail mount redundancy modules that empower design engineers to configure high-integrity, flexible N + 1 DC power systems for mission-critical applications, such as life and safety networks, as well as general purpose process control.

Designed for use with Sola/Hevi-Duty SDN-P Performance Series Power Supplies, the external modules incorporate isolation diodes for extra protection along with visual and dry contact signaling. They are capable of isolating two SDN-P units to create a "no-single-point" of failure redundant design. In the event of a power supply failure, the modules decouple the power supply outputs from each other so that one unit cannot overload the accompanying units. As a result, the system is assured uninterrupted power during the failure period as well as during the ensuing replacement.

SDN-P Performance Series Power Supplies ship standard with a parallel use selector switch for use in redundant or scalable power systems. Utilizing the new redundancy modules, a redundant scheme with up to 8 SDN-P power supplies can be constructed by paralleling the outputs of up to four modules.

Sola/Hevi-Duty is making its new redundant modules available in two models to cover the entire SDN-P Performance Series Power Supply line from 60 to 960 watts. The new SDN2.5-20RED is for use with the 2.5, 4,5, 10 and 20 Amp units, with either single or three phase inputs, while the SDN3040RED is designed for use with the 30 or 40 amp three phase input SDN-P Performance series power supplies.

The new modules feature rugged snap-on style mounting, plus large, easily wired and accessible screw terminations for easier, faster installations without requiring expensive backplane or extra parallel feedback wiring.

These modules complement the broadest line of DIN mount power supplies and industrial power quality solutions in the market.
