  1. Allen-Bradley Power Supplies: Powering Automation with Precision — Brought to You by PLC World In the competitive competitive arena of industrial automation, downtimes can mean millions in lost profits, and every part matters — especially your powers supply. Your PLCs and control systems can depend on as reliable as the source of energy. That’s why Allen-Bradley power supplies are relied on in many industries for their robustness, reliabilities, and intelligent designs. As a global supplier of industrial automation components, PLC World proudly offers a wide range of Allen-Bradley power supplies. Whether you’re managing a new automation project or maintaining a legacy control system, PLC World ensures you have access to the right power supply at the right time.

  2. In this blog, we dive deep into what makes Allen-Bradley power supplies the gold standard in the automation industry, how to choose the right model, and why businesses across the globe trust PLC World as their go- to source. Why Allen-Bradley Power Supplies Matter Power supplies are the hidden heart of any system of automation. Every device, from PLCs and HMIs to sensors and safety devices, relies on power that is clean, stable, and uninterruptible. A power supply that is poorly designed or bad quality can introduce noise that can lead to voltage drops or catastrophic failure, resulting in down time or damage to expensive equipment. Allen-Bradley, a brand under Rockwell Automation, is known for building some of the most reliable automation components on the market. Their power supplies are engineered to deliver consistent voltage, handle tough industrial environments, and integrate easily into control systems, both modern and legacy. From compact DIN-rail-mounted modules to high-capacity backplane power units, Allen-Bradley has developed a wide range of power solutions designed to meet the needs of various industries — including manufacturing, food and beverage, water treatment, energy, and logistics. Key Features of Allen-Bradley Power Supplies 1. High Reliability Allen-Bradley power supplies are designed to be long-lasting. Whether put in a clean room or sitting on a dusty plant floor, each unit has been tested to withstand thermal cycling, vibration and variations in power. 2. Wide Input Ranges

  3. Most models accommodate a wide input range of AC or DC, enabling the unit to be used in global installations or with poor power sources, such as generators or grids that are poorly regulated. 3. Space-effective Design Space is always a consideration in control cabinets. Allen-Bradley power supplies, specifically the 1606 Series, are designed to save space while maximizing output efficiency. 4. Built-in Diagnostics and LED Indicators The built-in indicators provide the status of the power supply and if there are any fault conditions or overloads and troubleshooting if there’s a power issue with the supply, once again more advanced models even remotely monitor and provide diagnostics! Selecting the Right Power Supply Choosing the correct power supply is essential to system stability and long-term operation. Here are a few factors to consider when selecting an Allen-Bradley power supply: 1. Input and Output Requirements Identify your power supply. Is it 120V AC? 240V? Or is it 24V DC? Ensure that the power supply meets your input requirement and your voltage rating. The output voltage and current will need to match with the requirements of your system, and then it is usually 24V DC for most control applications. 2. Power Budgeting Sum the current draw of all devices that the power supply will be supplying power to. Also, add at least an additional 20–30% headroom on top of the total current draw for safety and future expansion. Power

Environment Check if the supply will be installed in a high-temperature environment, a dusty, or environment with vibration. Allen-Bradley provides derating curves and environmental specs to assist in the proper selection. 4. Form Factor Will you need a unit that is DIN-rail mounted, or will a chassis-style supply for the system be required? Ensure you have a model that fits into the panel layout. 5. Redundancy Requirement If your system requires to be operational without interruption, consider utilizing dual redundant power supplies. Allen-Bradley supports this with parallel-capable units, and redundancy modules. Real-World Applications of Allen-Bradley Power Supplies Allen-Bradley power supplies are used in a variety of industries and applications. Here are a few real-world examples: 1. Automotive Manufacturing Allen-Bradley provides power for a variety of equipment including robotic welding arms and painting booths. The ability to count on the power translates into replicability of quality and work environment. 2. Food and Beverage Processing Food and beverage processing equipment needs clean power, with a stable output, especially in washdown environments. The 1606 series is regularly selected because it is sealed and has a smaller sometimes helps with physical footprint.

  5. 3. Water and Wastewater Treatment Water and wastewater treatment systems are often found remote or outside, they require rugged power supplies rated for wide input ranges. 4. Pharmaceutical and Chemical Plants Allen-Bradley provides high reliable, redundant power systems for maintaining safety and regulations compliance for highly scrutinized operations. Final Thoughts Allen-Bradley power supplies are a cornerstone of modern industrial automation. Whether you’re building a new system or supporting an existing one, the right power supply ensures stability, safety, and long- term reliability. At PLC World , we take pride in supporting manufacturers, system integrators, and maintenance teams by offering a comprehensive selection of Allen-Bradley power supplies — ready to ship, competitively priced, and backed by expert support.
