ADEL System DIN rail UPS power supplies

The ADEL System range of DIN rail mount DC UPS power supplies incorporate a DIN rail mounting switchmode power supply and UPS controller into a single unit. Users can also buy a maintenance-free battery pack and holder to create a fully integrated UPS solution.

Some models can be networked via the ADELBus network using the robust DPY351 controller, which is equipped with a high-brightness and wide viewing-angle 3.5″ TFT screen. The user interface is clear and intuitive.

Using the onboard Ethernet interface, it is possible to remotely manage the ADELBus network via the internet with a PC or a mobile device. The controller can also act as a gateway using standard protocols. The ADELBus network allows users to manage all connected power supplies, with functionality including system monitoring and event logging; system configuration; alarms and recorder management; and event programming.

Available with 12, 24 or 48 V outputs, the power supplies combine the functions of a power supply with those of a backup module and battery charger. They optimise the loading and unloading times of the battery without a deep discharge, and the switch from the battery to the charger without any interruption. They provide automatic protection without a fuse against reserve polarity, short circuit, overload and overvoltage.

They carry out diagnostic checks on the battery through the Life Test function, enabling the user to select the most appropriate charging curve to maximise the efficiency of their system. The supply of power is automatically allocated between the load and the battery being charged, with the charging rate being up to twice the rate of the rated output current.

Visual indications and a self-diagnostic function make it easy to anticipate any potential issues. The power supplies are also equipped with relays to warn of power outage and defective battery. Three charging levels are utilised: boost, trickle and recovery. It is possible to set boost and trickle remotely on some units.

The power supplies are compact, allowing users to fit more devices onto a single DIN rail. They will operate in ambient temperatures ranging from -10 to 70°C.
