Power Entry Modules Overview A standardized power input interface designed to be mounted on equipment enclosures. It provides a secure, efficient path for mains power from an external cord to internal circuitry. Available in multiple configurations to fit different enclosure sizes and regional standards. Why you need it Provides a dedicated power inlet for reliable operation and simple serviceability Simplifies enclosure design by offering a single, compatible entry point Improves cable management with a clear, standardized connection point Scales across small to large enclosures with multiple footprint options Enables compatibility with common power cords and regional electrical standards Key attributes Function: Main AC power entry for devices and control panels Compatibility: Configurable to match common cord sets and regional standards Size: Available in multiple footprints and mounting configurations Material: Housing options vary by model; designed for durability in typical enclosure environments Performance: Robust, reliable power interface with secure mating to cords and internal connections Applications Industrial control panels and automation enclosures Test and measurement equipment Audio/visual racks and other electronic enclosures needing a fixed mains inlet Use scenarios 1) In a factory automation cabinet, a Power Entry Module provides the mains inlet that connects to a standard power cord, feeding the PLC and drives. 2) In a laboratory instrument, the module mounts on the rear panel to accept an external mains lead for quick setup and maintenance. 3) In a fielddeployed equipment rack, the module enables consistent cabling, easy maintenance, and a clean internal wiring layout. Selection and maintenance Refer to the specific model datasheet for exact footprint, connector type, and mounting pattern Ensure the mounted module remains secure and undamaged if damaged or if cord compatibility changes Notes This description reflects general characteristics of Power Entry Modules. Exact specifications, footprints, and configurations vary by model. Consult the specific model datasheet for precise details.
