Question 1

What output voltages are available for Carlo Gavazzi power supplies?

Accepted Answer

Carlo Gavazzi DIN rail power supplies are available in standard DC output voltages including 5V, 12V, 24V, and 48V. The 24VDC models are most common for industrial control panels, PLCs, and sensor power. Output current ratings range from under 1A to over 20A.

Question 2

What is the efficiency of switching power supplies?

Accepted Answer

Carlo Gavazzi switching power supplies typically achieve 85-92% efficiency, significantly higher than linear supplies. High efficiency reduces heat generation, allowing smaller enclosures and lower cooling requirements. This also reduces energy costs in applications running continuously.

Question 3

Do power supplies include overload protection?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Carlo Gavazzi power supplies include multiple protection features: overcurrent/short circuit protection (hiccup mode or constant current limiting), overvoltage protection, and thermal shutdown. These protections prevent damage to the supply and connected equipment during fault conditions.
