Phoenix Contact TRIO2G AC-UPS DIN rail mount solution

Phoenix Contact has released the TRIO2G AC-UPS, a space-saving DIN rail mount solution that delivers uninterruptible AC power to critical loads in automation environments.

The device’s compact design incorporates a UPS module and battery in the one housing to help save on space and, at just 210 mm wide by 170 mm high, it can be installed quickly and easily. It is either latched onto a DIN rail or wall mounted and comes with push-in connectors.

Available in either 120 or 230 VAC, the UPS features pure sine curve at the output which provides seamless transition, as the battery operation runs in sync with the mains previously used for the supply.

A built-in 3.4 Ah battery offers a maximum of 600 W for 1.5 min. If required, additional capacity can be mounted onto the DIN rail to increase the time to four minutes at full load. The power storage device features maintenance-free VRLA technology.

The TRIO2G AC-UPS also allows remote start-up directly from the power storage, without mains input, and can be operated at temperatures ranging from 0 to 40°C.

LED status indicators allow for signalling and function monitoring. Three digital outputs provide remote monitoring and two digital inputs provide visual indication for remote shutdown and start-up. Wired into the control cabinet, the three signal contacts can be read by a programmable logic controller.

A mini USB port is provided, which can be used to configure the UPS and to command a controlled shutdown of an industrial PC following a defined period of time to avoid data loss, corruption or downtime. For permanent connection to an industrial PC or higher -level controller, a USB cable with a knurled screw connection suitable for continuous connection to the UPS is available.
