Product Introduction & Positioning

The ABB SAFT112POW is a high-performance power supply board designed to convert wide input AC voltage to a stable 12 V DC output, typically used for powering industrial automation devices. As part of ABB’s broad portfolio of power and control components, this module ensures reliable energy delivery with high efficiency and reliable protection features.

This power supply board fits within control cabinets in distributed automation systems and industrial PCs, offering compact dimensions for installation flexibility. It is engineered to provide continuous output power of up to 120 W, suitable for moderate power requirements in control panels.

Engineers benefit from the SAFT112POW due to its wide input range of 100 to 240 V AC, allowing it to operate efficiently in various geographic locations with differing power grids and voltage standards. It also features extensive built-in safeguards that protect both the power supply and connected devices from electrical faults, making it a trusted choice for continuous industrial operations.

Key Technical Features & Functional Benefits

The ABB SAFT112POW power supply board delivers up to 120 W of reliable, regulated 12 V DC power with efficiency levels exceeding 92% at full load. This high efficiency reduces heat generation, which prolongs the lifespan of both the power supply and connected control equipment. Its wide input voltage compatibility (100–240 V AC) ensures stable performance across global installations with diverse power quality.

Built-in protection features such as overvoltage protection (OVP), overcurrent protection (OCP), short-circuit protection (SCP), and overtemperature protection (OTP) safeguard industrial systems from transient faults and electrical stresses. These measures help minimize downtime and reduce maintenance costs by preventing damage to the supply and associated electronics.

The compact size of the SAFT112POW enables straightforward integration in automation panels with space constraints, while its robust design tolerates industrial environmental challenges like vibration and electromagnetic noise. This power supply’s agility in handling fluctuating input conditions while consistently delivering stable output makes it essential for automation engineers aiming for reliable, long-term system operation.
