24 Vdc Switching Power Supply, with North American cord, 3 A, dc Plug (Replaces PS-24V2A)

The RDL PS-24V3A is a 24 Vdc switching power supply designed for connection to numerous RDL modules. It accepts 100 to 240 VAC input and supplies 24 Vdc at 3 A, with UL and CSA identified in the output specification. A North American cord and DC plug support direct connection, while the plug may be removed when an RDL module requires hard wiring. This model replaces the PS-24V2A and is compatible with associated RDL PS mounting accessories.

Ideal Use Cases

The PS-24V3A is suited to RDL module installations requiring a 24 Vdc, 3 A power source. Its attached DC plug provides a quick connection method for numerous compatible RDL modules, making it appropriate when a plug-in power connection is preferred. For installations that call for direct wiring instead, the DC plug may be cut off so the power supply can be hard-wired to the module.

Its compatibility with associated RDL PS mounting accessories also makes it suitable for installations where the power supply must be incorporated into an RDL mounting arrangement. The specified ambient operating environment extends from 0° C to a maximum of 40° C.

Why Choose This Model

This model combines a broad 100 to 240 VAC input range with a 24 Vdc, 3 A output. The North American cord is supplied for the stated cord configuration, and the DC plug provides an immediate connection option for supported RDL modules. These electrical and connection details make it possible to evaluate the supply against a module’s voltage, current, and installation requirements before deployment.

The PS-24V3A is also identified as the replacement for the PS-24V2A. For systems previously associated with that model, the explicit replacement designation provides a clear current model reference without requiring assumptions based only on similar model numbering.

Installation and Integration

Integration begins with confirming that the intended RDL module requires a 24 Vdc supply and remains within the PS-24V3A’s 3 A output specification. The DC plug can then be used for quick connection to numerous RDL modules. When the target module uses hard-wired power terminals, the plug may be cut off and the conductors connected through the module’s applicable hard-wiring method.

The supply has nominal dimensions of 1.99 inches by 1.31 inches by 5.06 inches, equivalent to 5.05 by 3.33 by 12.85 centimeters. These measurements can be used when planning space around the power supply or selecting a compatible RDL PS mounting accessory. The listed package dimensions are 6.25 by 3.75 by 2.25 inches, and the shipping weight is 1.075 pounds.

Performance Highlights

The central performance specification is a 24 Vdc output delivering up to 3 A. Input power is specified from 100 to 240 VAC. ENERGY STAR Level VI efficiency is listed for the supply, providing a defined efficiency classification rather than an unspecified efficiency statement.

The output specification includes UL and CSA designations. Operation is specified for an ambient environment from 0° C through 40° C maximum. Together, these values establish the key electrical and environmental boundaries available from the supplied product information.

What Makes It Different

The PS-24V3A offers two stated connection approaches in one model. Its DC plug supports quick connection to numerous RDL modules, but the same plug may be removed when hard wiring is needed. This allows the connection method to follow the requirements of the selected RDL module without changing the stated 24 Vdc, 3 A supply specification.

Its role as the designated replacement for the PS-24V2A further distinguishes it within the provided product information. Compatibility with associated RDL PS mounting accessories adds another documented integration option, while the North American cord clearly identifies the supplied cord configuration.

Final Assessment

The RDL PS-24V3A is a focused power solution for compatible RDL module installations. Its defining specifications are a 100 to 240 VAC input, 24 Vdc at 3 A output, ENERGY STAR Level VI efficiency, North American cord, and convertible DC plug connection. Nominal dimensions and the stated 0° C to 40° C operating environment provide practical planning data, while its replacement designation and mounting-accessory compatibility clarify its position within RDL installations.
