HIMA F-PWR02 Power Supply Module

The HIMA F-PWR02 is a dedicated power supply module designed for use with HIMA F-series (HIMatrix compact) safety controllers. It accepts a nominal 24 VDC input from an external industrial power source and provides the regulated voltages required by the CPU and I/O modules within the F-series system. The module is certified for use in SIL 3 applications and includes essential protection features such as overload, short-circuit, and reverse polarity protection. Its compact design integrates seamlessly into the F-series controller, ensuring reliable power distribution in safety-critical applications.

Key Features

• SIL3 Certified: Suitable for high-integrity safety functions up to SIL 3.

• Wide Input Range: Accepts 24 VDC nominal (19.2–30 VDC) with reverse polarity protection.

• Integrated Diagnostics: Front-panel LED indicates power OK and fault status.

• Short-Circuit Protection: Output protected against short circuits; automatic recovery.

• Redundancy Support: Two modules can be connected in parallel for 1+1 redundancy (requires external decoupling).

• Compact Footprint: Occupies a single slot in the F-series housing.

Applications

The F-PWR02 is used in all F-series safety controllers, which are typically deployed in machinery safety, emergency stop systems, light curtain monitoring, and smaller process safety functions. Its reliable power delivery ensures uninterrupted operation of the safety logic solver, even under fault conditions.

Integration and Monitoring

The module plugs directly into the F-series controller's backplane and is automatically recognized. The diagnostic LED provides immediate visual status. For remote monitoring, the fault signal can be accessed via a dedicated pin on the backplane and wired to a digital input module to alert the safety system of a power supply issue. In redundant configurations, two F-PWR02 modules can share the load; if one fails, the other continues to supply full power, ensuring system availability.

Reliability and Environmental Compliance

Designed for industrial environments, the F-PWR02 meets IEC 61000-4 immunity standards and is tested for vibration and shock. Its operating temperature range covers most industrial applications. The module is RoHS compliant and carries CE and UL marks.

With its compact size and proven reliability, the HIMA F-PWR02 power supply module ensures that F-series safety controllers receive clean, stable power, contributing to overall system safety and uptime.
