Product Introduction & Positioning
The HIMA F7130A 984713060 is a specialized power supply module intended for use in HIMA’s HIQuad and HIMax series safety instrumented systems. Operating as a DC/DC converter, it converts 24 V DC input voltage to a stable 5 V DC output, providing isolated and regulated power to the central processing units and input/output modules within the system.
This module is rack-mounted and designed to fit into standard safety controller chassis, with built-in overvoltage protection, current limiting, and short-circuit resilience. Positioning itself as a core infrastructure component, it ensures that all safety-critical elements receive consistent power, supporting the overall reliability of the safety system architecture.
Safety engineers and system integrators value the F7130A for its robust isolation, high efficiency, and compatibility with a wide temperature range typical in industrial environments, which aids in simplifying system design while meeting functional safety requirements.
Key Technical Features & Functional Benefits
The HIMA F7130A delivers 5 V DC output at up to 10 A for central devices and I/O modules, and 1 A for the HIBUS interface, with an input range of 24 V DC ± 15%. Its DC/DC converter topology offers strong electrical isolation between input and output to prevent noise and transient interference from affecting safety system operation.
Built to operate between -40°C and +70°C, the module supports harsh industrial environments and maintains overvoltage protection and current limitation to safeguard connected devices. LED indicators on the front panel provide clear status information on input power and output voltages, simplifying troubleshooting and routine monitoring during operation.
Its compact footprint and a space requirement of 4 slot units (SU) facilitate integration into dense control racks. The module maintains high conversion efficiency (≥ 70%), minimizing heat generation and electrical losses which help maintain overall system reliability and longevity.
