PLCs, Power Supplies & Others

The Schneider 170CPS11100 functions as a power supply adaptor for the Modicon Momentum automation series from Schneider Electric. This compact unit converts incoming AC line voltage into regulated 24 Volts DC for connected components. We stock this essential power supply to support your existing Momentum installations. It provides reliable energy for processors and I/O modules in distributed control applications.

Technical Specifications and Physical Characteristics

Understanding the exact specifications of the Schneider 170CPS11100 ensures proper integration into your Modicon Momentum system. This adaptor features adjustable input voltage selection for global application flexibility.

Input Power Specifications and Configuration

The Schneider 170CPS11100 accepts a wide range of AC input voltages for worldwide compatibility. Its adjustable design accommodates different regional power systems.

• Input Voltage Rating: You can adjust the unit for 120 to 230 Volts AC input. This flexibility suits installations in North America, Europe, and Asia.

• Input Frequency: The power supply operates at 50 to 60 Hertz line frequency. Therefore, it works with both common international power standards.

• Fuse Protection: It includes a 0.63 Ampere fuse for 120 Volt operation. For 230 Volt systems, it uses a 0.315 Ampere fuse for proper protection.

• Voltage Selection: An internal switch selects the appropriate input voltage range. You must set this correctly before applying power to the unit.

• Inrush Current: The design limits startup inrush current to safe levels. This prevents nuisance tripping of upstream circuit breakers.

Output Power Characteristics and Capacity

The Schneider 170CPS11100 provides stable 24 Volt DC power for Momentum processors and I/O. Its regulated output ensures reliable operation of connected electronics.

• Output Voltage Rating: It delivers a regulated 24 Volts DC output for connected devices. This voltage suits most Momentum processors and I/O modules.

• Output Current Rating: The supply provides up to 0.7 Amperes continuous output current. Consequently, it powers a single processor with limited additional I/O.

• Output Regulation: The voltage remains stable despite variations in input or load. This protects sensitive electronics from power fluctuations.

• Ripple and Noise: Output filtering minimizes AC ripple on the DC output. Therefore, digital circuits receive clean power for reliable operation.

• Overload Protection: The supply includes current limiting for overload conditions. It recovers automatically when you remove the overload.

Terminal Connections and Wiring Specifications

The Schneider 170CPS11100 uses a terminal strip connector for field wiring connections. This design simplifies installation and replacement without special tools.

• Connection Type: A removable terminal strip accepts input and output wiring. Therefore, you can pre-wire the connector before installation.

• Wire Size: The terminals accept solid or stranded copper wire appropriately. Standard wire sizes suit typical control panel applications.

• Terminal Identification: Clearly marked terminals indicate input and output connections. This reduces wiring errors during installation.

• Screw Type: Captive screws ensure reliable connections that resist vibration. They remain with the terminal block for easy handling.

• Torque Requirement: Terminals require specific tightening torque for optimal connection. This prevents loose connections from causing intermittent operation.

LED Indicators and Status Monitoring

The Schneider 170CPS11100 includes a single RUN LED for immediate status indication. This visual feedback simplifies troubleshooting and commissioning.

• RUN LED: A green LED illuminates when the power supply operates normally. Therefore, you can verify power availability at a glance.

• LED Location: The indicator mounts on the front panel for easy visibility. Operators can check status without opening the control cabinet.

• Fault Indication: The LED extinguishes during output fault or input power loss. This provides immediate notification of power supply problems.

• Diagnostic Value: Maintenance personnel can quickly identify power-related issues. Consequently, they reduce troubleshooting time during outages.

• No Load Indication: The LED remains lit even with no load connected. This confirms the supply itself is functioning properly.

Environmental Specifications and Operating Conditions

The Schneider 170CPS11100 operates reliably across a wide range of environmental conditions. Its robust design suits demanding industrial automation applications.

• Operating Temperature: The module functions from 0 to 60 degrees Celsius. This range accommodates most industrial control cabinet environments.

• Storage Temperature: It withstands storage from -25 to 70 degrees Celsius. This tolerance ensures survival during shipping and warehouse storage.

• Humidity Tolerance: The unit operates at 5% to 95% relative humidity without condensation. Therefore, it resists moisture-related failures in humid conditions.

• Operating Altitude: It functions below 6,561.68 feet (2,000 meters) above sea level. This covers most industrial locations worldwide.

• Cooling Method: The supply uses natural convection cooling without fans. Consequently, it operates silently and requires no filter maintenance.

• Non-Condensing Environment: The module requires non-condensing conditions for reliable operation. Proper enclosure selection prevents condensation damage.

System Integration and Applications

Integrating the Schneider 170CPS11100 into your Momentum system requires straightforward mounting and wiring. It works alongside processors and I/O modules like the IS200AEBMG1AFB in broader automation architectures.

• Compatible Processors: The supply works with all Modicon Momentum processors requiring 24V DC. This includes both standard and enhanced CPU models.

• I/O Support: It can power limited I/O modules depending on current consumption. Calculate total load to ensure operation within the 0.7 Amp rating.

• Mounting Method: The adaptor mounts directly to the processor or I/O base. This creates a compact, integrated power solution.

• Field Wiring: Terminal strip access remains available after mounting. Therefore, you can connect field power without disassembly.

• System Expansion: For larger systems, you may need additional power supplies. The 170CPS11100 suits smaller Momentum configurations ideally.
