Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
What does the KJ1501X1-BC2 power supply do?
It provides dual-regulated 24 VDC output power to DeltaV system modules and controllers. -
Is this power supply hot-swappable?
Yes, it can be removed and replaced while the system remains operational under redundancy. -
Can it work with both AC and DC input?
No, it only accepts DC input (18–32 VDC). -
How does the redundancy function work?
It allows two power inputs; if one fails, the other maintains uninterrupted output. -
What systems is the BC2 module compatible with?
It is designed specifically for Emerson’s DeltaV distributed control system. -
Is the KJ1501X1-BC2 certified for use in hazardous areas?
Yes, it has ATEX, UL, CSA, and IECEx certifications for such environments. -
Does it provide overcurrent or short-circuit protection?
Yes, integrated protective circuitry ensures safe operation under fault conditions. -
Can it operate in outdoor or remote installations?
Yes, provided it is housed in appropriate enclosures with suitable environmental protections. -
What maintenance does this module require?
It requires virtually no maintenance due to its fanless, sealed design. -
What happens if both power inputs fail?
The module will cease output; external UPS or redundant power source should be considered.
