PSH500A AC Power Supplies
Many of our past Tech Tuesday blogs have featured different RIB® relays that we produce. From the simple to the more “smart” relays, we offer quite a variety! Maybe you’re asking yourself: “Does Functional Devices make more than RIB® relays?” That’s a great question because we do! This week I would like to zoom in on some of our power supplies that are quite popular. I’m talking, of course, about our 500VA Power Supply Series, including the PSH500A family of AC power supplies.

Variations of the PSH500A
An accessory outlet on PSH500AB10-LVC is available for convenient access to the power receptacle while a technician is working in the area.
Applications of this Power Supply
So where could a power supply of this kind be used? We have heard many HVAC engineers making use of the PSH500A power supplies in VAV (variable air volume) systems. With five separate outputs, 24Vac may be supplied to each HVAC controller that controls the air supply to each room. We have also heard of these AC power supplies being installed in surgery rooms to help power the controls that keep those rooms free of airborne contaminants. There is also a use for these power supplies in a hospital or other scientific laboratory to supply power to hood ventilation controls, damper controls, or other loads that help to make the laboratory a safe place for handling chemicals or other potentially dangerous substances.
I hope this week’s blog entry helped to give a nice introduction to the PSH500A family of power supplies. It was a general description, so feel free to give us a call or send in an email to technical support if you would like to know more specific details of these power supplies. I or any of the other engineers would be more than happy to help!
