Allen-Bradley 1606-XL480EP AC/DC Power Supply

The Allen‑Bradley 1606-XL480EP AC/DC Power Supply delivers 480 watts of continuous output from a single‑phase AC input to a 24–28 V DC output, making it a compact, DIN‑rail mounted module for demanding control system loads. It includes power‑factor correction and is designed to be mounted as a standard XL family power supply, with a nominal output current of up to 20 A at 24 V (18 A at 28 V), enabling reliable feeding of PLCs, distributed I/O, and field devices. The unit accepts a 120/240 V AC single‑phase supply and provides precise DC regulation with robust overload protection, suitable for industrial automation environments. Mounting and physical specs align with other XL series modules: dimensions approximately 65 mm (2.56 in) wide, 124 mm (4.88 in) deep, and 127 mm (5 in) tall, enabling easy DIN‑rail integration in compact cabinets. Operating temperature ranges from −25 to +70 °C, with thermal derating to preserve performance in warmer installations. Typical hold‑up time is around 26 ms, supporting transient disturbances without loss of critical control signals. Note: the 1606-XL480EP was discontinued by Rockwell Automation on October 30, 2017 and has a direct replacement in the 1606-XLE480EP line for future sourcing. This model remains a historic reference for high‑power, 24–28 V DC automation power delivery.
