  • Switch-mode power supply | 24VDC | 40W | 1.67A | 85-264VAC | RJ45 Power over Modbus | IP30 | DIN rail | Sentera Controls | DRPS8-24-40

    DRPS8-24-40 – a Sentera Controls switch-mode power supply converting the 85–264 VAC mains voltage into a stable 24 VDC, up to 40 W (Imax 1.67 A). DIN rail mounted, it has two terminal and two RJ45 outputs – 24 VDC can also be distributed via a Power over Modbus cable.

    Key idea:
    Sentera sensors, controllers and control panels must be powered at 24 VDC. This power supply is designed for exactly that: through the RJ45 socket a single cable can carry both power and the Modbus RTU line, making installation faster and neater.
    Output
    24 VDC, 40 W (1.67 A)
    Input
    85–264 VAC, 50–60 Hz
    Connections
    2 × terminals + 2 × RJ45
    Protection
    IP30, DIN rail

    Operating principle

    The power supply is mounted on a DIN rail in the panel. Mains voltage 85–264 VAC, 50–60 Hz is connected to terminals L and N. Outputs: 1 and 2 – terminals (+24 V, GND), 3 and 4 – RJ45 sockets (pin 1 – 24 VDC, 3 – Modbus A, 5 – Modbus /B, 7 – GND). The terminal block duplicates the RJ45 connector – the total load is the sum of the loads of all outputs and must not exceed 40 W.

    The switching converter produces a stable 24 VDC voltage. Compared with linear sources, such a supply is more efficient, runs cooler, and is lighter and more compact. Overvoltage and overload protection operates in "hiccup" mode: during an overload the supply briefly switches off and tries to restart, and once the fault is removed, operation resumes automatically.

    Result – Sentera sensors, controllers and control panels receive a stable 24 VDC voltage from a single supply, and after an overload operation recovers without human intervention. Engineer's note: when calculating the load, add up the maximum power of all connected devices and leave a margin.

    Benefits DRPS8-24-40?
    A single 24 VDC / 40 W power supply for a group of several Sentera sensors or controllers, with an RJ45 Power over Modbus connector and automatic overload protection.

    Main functions

    • 24 VDC / 40 W – powers several Sentera sensors, controllers or control panels.
    • Wide input range 85–264 VAC – suitable for an unstable network and various countries.
    • RJ45 Power over Modbus – power and Modbus RTU over a single cable.
    • Hiccup protection – in case of overload or short circuit it switches off and recovers automatically.
    • LED indication – you can see at a glance whether there is voltage at the output.

    Where is it used?

    • Automation panels with DIN rail
    • Ventilation and heating control cabinets
    • Powering multiple Sentera transmitters and controllers on a Modbus network
    • Modbus RTU lines with Power over Modbus cables
    • 24 VDC power supply for type F pressure controllers (HPSPF, DPSPF, HPSAF, DPSAF, SPS2F)
    • Powering a group of pressure or CO₂ sensors with up to 40 W total power

    On-demand operation

    For the control panel assembler.
    A DIN rail housing and an 8 mm wire strip length allow neat 24 VDC distribution in the panel.
    For Modbus network integrators.
    Two RJ45 sockets pass 24 VDC and the Modbus RTU line (A, /B) to other Sentera devices over a single cable.
    For ventilation control cabinet designers.
    The wide 85–264 VAC input and 40 W (1.67 A) output allow several sensors and controllers to be powered from a single supply.

    Practical application

    If Sentera devices on a Modbus RTU network need to be powered in a control panel, then the DRPS8-24-40 on a DIN rail passes 24 VDC and the A, /B line over a single cable through two RJ45 sockets, and the total load of all four outputs must not exceed 40 W.

    Application guide: how it is used in practice

    The DRPS8-24-40 is used in various systems – only the connected devices and the connection method change:

    Site What is connected Result Installer's note
    Automation panel DIN rail, L / N from the panel circuit breaker Neat 24 VDC distribution in the panel Strip the wires 8 mm
    Group of pressure or CO₂ transmitters Transmitters (e.g. HPS-2, DPS-2) → terminals +24 V / GND All sensors are powered from a single power supply Add up the transmitter power – up to 40 W
    Modbus network with RJ45 Sentera device with RJ45 → RJ45 socket Power and Modbus RTU in one cable Terminals and RJ45 are connected in parallel – the load is shared
    Pressure controller with an EC fan HPSPF / DPSPF controller → +24 V, GND The controller receives a stable 24 VDC Connect F-type controllers with 4 wires

    How to choose a power supply

    Installation location Recommended model
    Panel, DIN rail (IP30) DRPS8-24-40 (24 VDC, 40 W, DIN) ← this model
    On a wall, damp environment (IP65) SEPS8-24-40 (24 VDC, 40 W, IP65)
    Rule: the sum of the maximum power of all connected devices must not exceed 40 W (1.67 A at 24 VDC); terminal and RJ45 output loads are added together. Choose the installation location according to the environment: in a panel – DIN version, in a damp room – IP65 version.
    When to choose another solution: for damp environments or wall mounting – SEPS8-24-40 (IP65).
