The SITOP power supply system includes the basic SITOP PSU8600 units, the SITOP CNX8600 expansion units, the SITOP BUF8600 buffer modules, and the SITOP UPS8600 UPS module with BAT8600 battery modules.
The modular system toolbox can be fully integrated into automation landscapes and the Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal). Communication via the Ethernet/PROFINET or OPC UA interface is easy. In addition to its operating and monitoring processes, you can use the SITOP Manager to set parameters. Use the integrated web server for remote access. A new basic device now also allows integration into EtherNet/IP networks, which are mainly used in the North American market.
Bridging brief and longer power failures
ZBuffer modules with electrolytic capacitors that can buffer up to 600 ms at a load current of 40 A can be used to protect against brief power dips on the line side (brownouts). The versions with double-layer capacitors (UltraCaps) buffer against longer outages, up to 20 s at 40 A. Because the buffer time is longer for lower buffer currents, this allows devices like industrial PCs to be shut down manually as required.
