Information About 1606-XL480EP

The 1606-XL480EP standard power supply module has been manufactured as part of the Allen-Bradley Bulletin 1606-XL Standard Switched Mode Power Supply series. This power supply module operates on an input voltage of 100 to 240 Volts AC or 24 to 28 Volts DC, an input power rating of 480 Watts, and a current rating of 20 Amps. It comes with an input frequency of 50 to 60 Hertz, a minimum frequency rating of 47 Hertz, and a maximum frequency rating of 63 Hertz. It has a nominal inrush current of 5 Amps and a maximum inrush current of 18 Amps. Other notable specifications of the 1606-XL480EP power supply module include LED indicator lights, a minimum hold-up time of 30 milliseconds, an output current of 20 Amps at 24 Volts DC, and 18 Amps at 28 Volts DC. It also has 519,000 hours of minimum time before failure (MTBF). It supports the NEMA IP 20 rating and DIN-35 rail mount mounting type and a minimum electrical efficiency of 90.5%.

The Allen-Bradley 1606-XL480EP standard power supply module comes with a wide range of features that make it unique. Some of the features include industry-leading efficiency which helps to minimize the heat output and which also reduces the associated running costs. The Allen-Bradley 1606-XL480EP standard power supply module also has a redundancy module option which allows for backup power in critical applications. Additionally, the unit has a compact footprint designed to save space on the panel. It has an operating temperature range of 0 to 70 degrees Celsius and a storage temperature range of -25 to 85 degrees Celsius. It is also rated and approved for compliance with the UL 508, IEC 60950, CE, EN 50178, and EN 60950 standards.

Frequently Asked Questions about 1606-XL480EP
Question: What is the 1606-XL480EP used for?
Date Update:17/06/2025
Answer:

The 1606-XL480EP is a switched-mode power supply module designed to deliver regulated DC power in industrial automation systems. It is widely used in control panels, PLC systems, sensor networks, and machine-level circuits where stable 24V or 28V DC power is required. The unit’s robust power output of 480W and 20A ensures reliable performance for powering demanding loads, including I/O modules, contactors, and field instrumentation. With its compact size and high efficiency, it supports space-saving designs and energy-efficient operation in manufacturing, process control, and OEM panels.

Question: What are the main technical specifications?
Date Update:17/06/2025
Answer:
  • Output Power: 480 Watts
  • Input Voltage: 100–240V AC or 24–28V DC
  • Output Voltage: 24–28V DC
  • Output Current: 20 Amps
  • Efficiency: ≥90.5%
  • Frequency Range: 47–63 Hz
  • MTBF: 519,000 hours
  • Mounting: DIN rail
Question: Can it be used in redundant power applications?
Date Update:17/06/2025
Answer:

Yes, it supports parallel operation with redundancy modules, enabling fault-tolerant power architecture. This is especially useful for critical systems where uninterrupted power is essential. In this configuration, two 1606-XL480EP units can supply the same load with automatic switchover if one fails.

Question: How to mount and connect the 1606-XL480EP?
Date Update:17/06/2025
Answer:

To mount and wire this power supply:

  • Attach the unit to a DIN-35 rail using the snap-fit mounting feature.
  • Connect the AC input terminals to a 100–240V AC source or a 24–28V DC source.
  • Wire the DC output terminals to your load circuits (24V or 28V DC devices).
  • Verify terminal torque values and ensure wire size meets the 20A current requirement.
  • Observe proper polarity, and check the LED indicator for output status once energized.
Question: Is it still in production and supported?
Date Update:17/06/2025
Answer:

The Allen-Bradley 1606-XL480EP power supply is no longer in production. According to the official Rockwell Automation lifecycle notice, this model was discontinued on October 30, 2017. As of that date, it is no longer available for purchase and has been removed from active product listings. Customers are advised to stop using it in new designs and to replace it in existing systems where necessary. The officially recommended direct replacement for this product is the Allen-Bradley 1606-XLE480EP.
