Power decentralisation made easier

The demand for flexible, modular systems is shaping the world of automation, control and machine building. Decentralisation of system components has proven to be an important factor in this growing trend because it speeds up the system planning process, simplifies installation and maintenance and also facilitates future expansion. For many machine and systems builders the power supply has been an obstacle on the path to consistent decentralisation. This applies In particular where functions such as selective current distribution, protection and condition monitoring need to be implemented whilst providing maximum reliability and uptime. This White Paper examines how it is possible to achieve these requirements with an all-in-one power supply.
