3. POWER SUPPLY
CX-one: Power supply requirements:
Voltage: 24V DC +/- 1.2 V
Max. ripple: max. 100 mV p-p
Noise (HF-ripple 20MHz) max. 300 mV p-p
current consumption: c. 5.5A printing
c. 3A card transport
c. 1.5A standby (heating active)
The following diagram shows the power profile of a typical card cycle. The level of power
consumption during printing depends primarily on the print image (i.e. the number of dots
being printed). As a result, practical power profiles may differ from the diagram. When
choosing your power supply you should ensure sufficient power reserves at your power
supply unit.
The connection of optional devices such as magnetic card or chipcard readers, card
feeders, etc., is not taken into account in the diagram.
