24 V supply voltage
The MCX91A-.. inverters have an internal 24 V voltage supply that can also be supported externally.
For size 3 – 8 inverters, the 24 V switched-mode power supply has a power of 80 W. For size 0S and 0L inverters, the internal 24 V switched-mode power supply has a power of 7.3 W.
Observe the following information:
- Devices without a safety option do not require an external backup voltage. In this case, a total of 300 mA is available at the outputs. The maximum load of the MOVILINK® DDI connection is 150 mA. The actual current consumption of the MOVILINK® DDI connection must be subtracted from the 300 mA.
- Devices with a safety option (CSB, CSL) always require an external backup voltage. This backup voltage must not be interrupted; otherwise, the safety options are not supplied.
- The following applies to both cases:
- If the device is supported by an external supply, the entire supply is provided by the external power supply unit. In this case, the MOVILINK® DDI connection can be loaded with a maximum of 500 mA. For all other device outputs, the limitation of the technical data applies.
If a 24 V backup voltage is necessary, it must be switched on before the line voltage and switched off after the line voltage.

The maximum permitted length of the 24 V supply cable is 30 m.
