Siemens PANEL PC 877 Power Factor Correction, Country-specific connection information

Connecting 6.2 Connecting the 100 V to 240 V AC power supply

Power Factor Correction

The power supply contains an active PFC (Power Factor Correction) circuit to conform to the EMC guidelines.

Uninterruptible AC power systems (UPS) must supply a sinusoidal output voltage in the normal and buffered mode when used with SIMATIC PCs with an active PFC.

UPS characteristics are described and classified in the standards EN 50091-3 and IEC 62040-3. Devices with sinusoidal output voltage in the normal and buffered mode are identified with the classification “VFI-SS-....” or “VI-SS-....”.

Notice

Risk of damage

Operation of the device on a non-sinusoidal mains voltage can cause damage to the power supply unit.
