Requirements
The NIM must be supplied 13 W of power. In addition each BOS module on your
island must be supplied 7 W of power. When selecting your power sources keep in
mind these power requirements. For instance, if you have a NIM and a single BOS
on your island and you are using a single supply, add their power requirements
together to come up with the total power requirement for the single supply.

Supplies
We recommend the Phaseo ABL7 family of power supplies. Phaseo power supplies
are distributed in the United States by Square D. Here are three possible power
supply solutions for an island with 24 VDC modules:
1 supply for 3 connections (logic power, actuator power and sensor power):
ABL7 RP 2410 (10 A maximum)
2 supplies for 3 connections (1 for logic power, 1 for actuator and sensor power
For Logic power: ABL7 RP 2402 or ABL RE 2402
For the 24 VDC PDM: ABL7 RP 2410 (10 A maximum)
3 supplies for 3 connections (1 for logic power, 1 for actuator power, 1 for sensor
power)
For logic power: ABL7 RP 2402 or ABL7 RE 2402
For the 24 VDC PDM sensor: ABL7 RP 2405 or ABL7 RE 2405 (5 A maximum)
For the 24 VDC PDM actuator: ABL RP 2410 (10 A maximum)
For more information on recommended supplies contact your Schneider Electric
representative.
Note: If the 24 VDC source power supply also supplies field voltage to a (PDM),
you must add the field load to your wattage calculation. For 24 VDC loads, the
calculation is simply amps x volts = watts.
