The Schneider Electric ABL8RPS24030 is a Modicon Power Supply range regulated switch-mode power supply built for wide-range 100-500 V AC installations. It converts single or two-phase mains into a regulated 24 V DC output rated at 3 A and 72 W, with a built-in power-factor-correction filter and automatic-reset overload protection. At 44 mm wide, it mounts on 35 mm DIN rail alongside GB2 or GV2 circuit breakers.
The ABL8RPS24030's 3 A / 72 W rating fits a single compact PLC, a handful of sensors or a small I/O block on a 24 V DC bus. Step up to the 5 A, 10 A or 20 A variants in the same Modicon Power Supply range as more field devices or a second I/O rack are added, since all four accept the same wide 100-500 V AC input and mount the same way.
