Innovative DIN-Rail power supplies offer cost advantages

PULS Power offers its latest models in the PIANO series. The PIANO-PIM family have been created for employment in the many industrial applications which only need a basic power supply so that customers do not have to pay for needless control and communication facilities.

The new series offers a cost-effective, space-saving, efficient, reliable and durable DIN-Rail mounted AC/DC converters. The 100-240VAC wide-range input, 24VDC output units are offered in three versions: PIM36 (36W), PIM60 (60W) and PIM90 (90W). With these additions to the already very successful PIANO power supply range PULS now offers users a complete, cost-oriented, product family with outputs from 30-480W. At ambient temperatures between -10C and +55C, the devices work at full power without derating. The PIM90 is also offered as an NEC Class 2 version for the US market.

The range utilises innovative technology to make savings in cost and space. The single PCB design uses a decreased number of high-quality components, lowering cost, simplifying manufacture and improving reliability. The PIM90 is currently claimed to be the smallest 90W DIN-Rail power supply on the market. The compact design conserves space on the DIN-Rail in the control cabinet and makes them ideal for decentralised use in cramped systems or spaces, such as building automation.

The PIM60 and PIM90 power supplies are offered with either screw terminals or time saving push-in terminals. The devices are optimally prepared for automated wiring processes. The range meets all international safety agency approvals and are CE marked.

Marco van der Linden, UK country manager for PULS Power, comments: "Our PIANO range continues the PULS philosophy of offering our customers 'more with less'. Our new PIANO-PIM range of power supplies are ideally suited for worldwide applications requiring a simple, basic, cost-effective power supply with no compromise on quality. The compact size of the PIM36, PIM60 and PIM90 allows more flexibility in system design while the simple installation provides significant time and cost savings. PULS power supplies continue to set new records in their respective performance classes in the quality-critical functions such as efficiency, lifetime and size.”
