As a unique power supply system with complete integration in Totally Integrated Automation (TIA), SITOP PSU8600 sets new standards in industrial power supplies. The benefits of this integration are not only apparent during engineering in TIA Portal but also result in reliable operation. Voltage and current response thresholds can be set individually for each output of the power supply system. The individual setting allows for selective monitoring of each output for overload results in fast fault location. Depending on requirements more modules from the modular system, such as are used for buffering short power failures, can be added without wiring overhead.

Comprehensive diagnostic and maintenance information is available via PROFINET. It can be evaluated directly in SIMATIC S7 and visualised in SIMATIC WinCC. Optimal support is also provided for energy management of plant or machines: From the acquisition of energy data from individual outputs, the specific activation and deactivation of outputs via PROFIenergy, to direct integration in power management systems.

• Multiple integrated outputs with selective monitoring

The SITOP PSU8600 power supply system is used as the central DC power supply of larger plants or machines with networked automation systems. The PSU8600 can be directly integrated into the LAN infrastructure by the two integrated PROFINET ports.

The buffer module supplies the load current for supplying the outputs with its energy storage units when there are short-term power failures. Maintenance free electrolytic capacitors or double-layer capacitors are used as energy-storage units.
