Information About 1606-XLS480E

The 1606-XLS480E is part of Allen-Bradley’s high-performance XLS power supply family, engineered for reliable 24 VDC operation in control cabinets requiring compact design and elevated power density. The module features long-life electrolytic capacitors to minimize ripple and improve long-term stability and is equipped with spring-clamp terminals for quick and secure wiring. Two positive and two negative output terminals are provided, along with a DC-OK signal contact that enables external monitoring of output status.

This power supply supports adjustable output voltage from 24 to 28 VDC using an onboard potentiometer, allowing compensation for voltage drops or application-specific requirements. It accommodates overload events through a built-in 150% power boost capability, supplying short-term additional current for load peaks, startup surges, or downstream switching operations. Integration with redundancy modules also enables 1+1 operation for high-availability system architectures.

Engineered for robust industrial environments, the 1606-XLS480E features active power factor correction, low inrush current behavior, and high efficiency above 92%, helping reduce energy loss and heat within the enclosure. With an operating temperature range of –25 to 70 °C and compliance with UL, CE, and other global standards, the unit is well-suited for use in PLC systems, HMIs, sensors, relays, and general automation equipment requiring reliable 24 VDC power distribution.

Key Features

  • Wide input range: Accepts 100–240 VAC or 110–150 VDC input.
  • Adjustable output voltage: 24–28 VDC with onboard potentiometer.
  • High output capability: 480 W continuous with 20 A (24 V) or 17 A (28 V).
  • 150% power boost: Supports 720 W for short-duration overload events.
  • Spring-clamp terminals: Fast and secure wiring for field installation.
  • DC-OK signaling: Provides output monitoring for system diagnostics.
  • High efficiency: 92%–94% typical, reducing heat and energy losses.
  • Compact design: Minimal heat generation and reduced panel footprint.

The 1606-XLS480E delivers the reliability and stability required for modern industrial control power systems.
