Project planning of the 24 V supply

Check whether the available current from the 24 V switched-mode power supply is sufficient for the total current demand of all consumers.

  1. Sum up the typical current demand of all consumers according to the following table:

  1. Compare the total current demand of all consumers with the available current from the internal 24 V switched-mode power supply:

If the total current demand of all consumers is greater than the available current from the internal 24 V switched-mode power supply, you must supply the drive unit with 24 V externally. Supplying the drive unit with 24 V externally is always possible. If an external 24 V backup voltage is applied, SEW-EURODRIVE recommends the device design without an internal 24 V switched-mode power supply (MPI90A..).

When using an internal 24 V switched-mode power supply with simultaneous external connection of a 24 V and 400 V supply, note that the backup current of the external 24 V supply typically only takes over the full load at 26 V. Between 24 V and 26 V, the 24 V sources operate under partial load, depending on the load. If there is no 400 V supply connected to a device with an internal 24 V switched-mode power supply, the external 24 V supply is placed under full load.
