LOOP SUPPLY INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Bristol’s ControlWave Loop Power Supply (herein referred to as the “Loop Supply”), provides regulated and isolated 24Vdc power outputs that can be used to power field devices such as transmitters or
Loop Supply’s provide 24Vdc field power distribution via four pairs of wiring terminals provided on Terminal Block TB2. Additionally, Loop Supply’s are user configured via Jumper JP1 to operate in conjunction with either a nominal bulk 12Vdc input (with an input range of +9 to +30Vdc) or a nominal bulk 24Vdc input (with an input range of +19 to +30Vdc). Loop Supply’s have been designed to provide the following features:
•4 Loop Power Terminals pairs provide field device wiring flexibility and con- venience.
•9 - 30 Vdc bulk power input range accommodated installation flexibility
•Bulk power input can be applied to either of the
•Direct Panel, 35mm DIN Rail or Snap Track Mounting accommodated
•Small size minimizes panel space requirements
1.2LOOP SUPPLY COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION
Loop Supply components that the user should become familiar with are discussed herein. These components include Connectors TB1, TB2 and TB3, Configuration Jumper JP1, the Power LED, and Fuse F1.
•Terminal Blocks
Loop Supply’s are provided with three Terminal Blocks which accommodate up to #16 AWG size wire. Terminal Block Connections are provided in Tables 1 and 2.
.
Terminal Block TB1 typically acts as the interface for the bulk 9 to 30 Vdc input power. In some cases, TB1 may be used as the bulk dc power
