Core Features
Filter-Enhanced Mid-Current Design for Noise-Sensitive Loads: Functions as a precision industrial-grade power supply with built-in high-performance EMI/RFI filters, converting 230V AC input to stable 24V DC output. It delivers 2.5A rated current (60W power rating) with ultra-low output ripple (<30mVpp), ensuring clean, interference-free power for sensitive 24V DC equipment like precision sensors, micro-PLCs, or low-power communication modules that cannot tolerate electrical noise.
High Efficiency & Energy Savings: Equipped with advanced switch-mode technology and enhanced filtering to achieve ≥88% efficiency (at full load), minimizing energy waste and heat generation—critical for enclosed control cabinets where cooling is limited. The low no-load power consumption (<0.6W) further reduces standby energy use, aligning with global industrial energy efficiency standards (e.g., EN 61000-3-2) and lowering operational costs.
Comprehensive Protection & Noise Suppression: Integrates multi-layered protection and enhanced filtering to safeguard equipment and ensure signal integrity:
Overload protection: Limits output current to 120–150% of rated value, with latching shutdown for sustained overloads (resettable via power cycle) to prevent component damage.
Short-circuit protection: Current-limited shutdown with automatic recovery once the fault is resolved, avoiding permanent damage to sensitive devices (e.g., sensor controllers).
Overvoltage protection: Clamps output voltage to ≤28V DC to shield 24V DC components from voltage spikes common in industrial grids.
Enhanced EMI/RFI filtering: Built-in Class B filters (per EN 61000-6-3) reduce conducted and radiated noise by ≥40dB, preventing interference with nearby signal-sensitive equipment (e.g., data loggers, wireless transmitters).
Wide Input Tolerance & Industrial Durability: Designed to handle unstable 230V AC inputs, supporting an input range of 85–264V AC (compatible with global single-phase grids, e.g., 110V AC in North America, 230V AC in Europe). It operates reliably in temperatures from -25°C to +70°C, suitable for cold warehouses, warm production floors, or outdoor enclosures (with proper housing). The IP20 protection rating (IEC 60529) shields internal components from dust and accidental contact, while vibration resistance (10–500Hz, 50m/s²) ensures performance in high-vibration setups (e.g., manufacturing lines with light machinery).
Compact Design & Easy Installation: Features a rugged, DIN-rail mountable form factor (35mm standard DIN rail) with a width of 32mm—balanced for mid-current output and space efficiency. Tool-free screw terminal blocks enable secure wiring (accepts 2.5–6mm² cables), and a multi-color LED status indicator (green: normal; red: fault; yellow: overload warning) provides clear real-time monitoring—simplifying maintenance and troubleshooting for noise-sensitive, medium-duty systems.
Typical Applications
The Phoenix Contact QUINT PS-230AC-24DC-2,5-F-2939357 is engineered for filter-enhanced mid-current 24V DC power delivery in global industrial systems—ideal for medium-duty scenarios where both stable power and noise suppression are critical—with core use cases including:
Precision Sensor & Transmitter Power: Supplies ultra-clean 24V DC to noise-sensitive sensors (e.g., pressure transducers, optical micro-sensors) and transmitters in process control systems (e.g., pharmaceutical manufacturing, food processing). The enhanced filtering eliminates signal interference, ensuring accurate measurement data—complying with IEC 61298-2 standards for process measurement instruments.
Micro PLC & Communication Module Power: Powers compact PLCs (e.g., Siemens S7-1200, Phoenix Contact ILC 131 ETH) and their communication modules (e.g., Profinet, Modbus) in industrial control panels. The low ripple and EMI filtering prevent communication errors, while wide input tolerance handles global grid variations—complying with IEC 61131-2 standards for programmable controllers.
Low-Power Motor & Driver Power: Powers small 24V DC motors (e.g., CKD AX series micro BLDC motors) and their drivers in automation lines where motor noise could disrupt nearby electronics (e.g., laboratory automation, electronics assembly). The filtering reduces motor-generated EMI, ensuring stable operation of both motors and sensitive devices—complying with IEC 60034-1 standards for rotating electrical machines.
IoT & Data Logging System Power: Provides clean 24V DC to low-power IoT edge devices, wireless sensor hubs, or data loggers in industrial monitoring networks. The 2.5A output supports multiple devices simultaneously, while noise suppression ensures reliable data transmission—complying with IEEE 802.15.4 standards for low-power IoT.
