The CP-E 24/2.5 is a compact DIN-rail mounted switch-mode power supply in ABB's CP-E series, providing a 24 V DC output at 2.5 A (60 W). It accepts a wide-range AC input from 85 VAC up to 264 VAC (universal 100–240 VAC) or DC input from 90 V to 375 V. The output voltage is adjustable between 24 V and 28 V DC to compensate for voltage drop or special loads. This power supply features a robust design with power factor correction and high efficiency (~88%), ensuring low heat dissipation. It includes comprehensive protections: short-circuit protection (fold-forward characteristic), overload protection, and over-voltage protection, thus safeguarding itself and the powered devices. A "DC OK" signal (transistor output or LED indicator) is provided for monitoring the health of the output. The CP-E 24/2.5 can be connected in parallel with another identical unit for redundancy or higher power (thanks to an output characteristic supporting current sharing). The unit's form factor is slim (approx. 55 mm width) for easy installation in control panels. It operates in temperatures roughly –25 °C to +70 °C (with derating above +40 °C). This CP-E series PSU is ideal for reliably powering PLCs, HMIs, sensors, and other 24 V control devices in industrial automation systems, with safety approvals and EMC compliance for global use.
