Allen-Bradley 1606-XLB120E Industrial Power Supply - Reliable 24-28V DC Output

The Allen-Bradley 1606-XLB120E is a high-performance XLB series power supply engineered for demanding industrial automation environments. Delivering consistent 24-28V DC output at 120W, this compact DIN rail-mounted unit ensures stable power delivery for PLCs, sensors, actuators, and control systems across manufacturing, process control, and machine automation applications.

Technical Specifications

  • Model: 1606-XLB120E
  • Output Voltage: 24-28V DC (adjustable)
  • Output Power: 120W continuous
  • Output Current: 5A maximum
  • Input Voltage: 85-132V AC / 170-264V AC (universal input, auto-ranging)
  • Input Frequency: 47-63 Hz
  • Efficiency: >88% typical at full load
  • Mounting: Standard 35mm DIN rail (EN 60715)
  • Operating Temperature: -25°C to +70°C (-13°F to +158°F)
  • Protection: Overload, overvoltage, short-circuit, and thermal protection
  • Certifications: UL, cUL, CE, RoHS compliant
  • Dimensions: Compact footprint for space-constrained panels
  • Weight: 0.37 kg

Key Applications & Use Cases

The 1606-XLB120E excels in industrial control environments where reliable, regulated DC power is critical:

  • PLC & Controller Power: Primary or backup power for Allen-Bradley ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and MicroLogix systems
  • Sensor Networks: Powering proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, and safety devices
  • Actuator Control: Energizing solenoid valves, relays, and pneumatic control systems
  • HMI & Interface Panels: Stable power for operator interface terminals and display systems
  • Machine Automation: Packaging equipment, conveyor systems, and assembly line controls
  • Process Control: Chemical processing, water treatment, and HVAC automation

Why Choose the 1606-XLB120E?

Universal Input Flexibility: Auto-ranging 85-264V AC input accommodates global voltage standards without manual switching, simplifying international deployments and reducing inventory complexity.

Robust Protection: Integrated safeguards against overload, short-circuit, and thermal events protect downstream equipment and minimize downtime, ensuring continuous operation in harsh industrial conditions.

Space-Efficient Design: Compact DIN rail form factor maximizes panel density, allowing more components in smaller enclosures—ideal for retrofit projects and space-constrained installations.

Wide Operating Range: Proven performance from -25°C to +70°C supports deployment in extreme environments including outdoor enclosures, cold storage facilities, and high-temperature manufacturing zones.

Common Questions & Solutions

Q: Can the 1606-XLB120E replace legacy 1606-XL series units?
A: Yes, the XLB series maintains backward compatibility with XL mounting and terminal configurations, enabling seamless upgrades without panel modifications.

Q: What's the recommended derating for high-temperature environments?
A: Derate output by 2.5% per °C above 50°C. At 70°C maximum operating temperature, expect approximately 95W usable output.

Q: Is this suitable for safety-rated applications?
A: While the 1606-XLB120E provides reliable power, it is not safety-rated. For safety circuits, consider Allen-Bradley GuardLogix or safety-certified power supplies.

Q: How do I adjust the output voltage?
A: Use the front-accessible potentiometer to fine-tune output between 24-28V DC. Adjustment requires a small flathead screwdriver and multimeter for verification.

Installation & Integration Tips

  • Mount on 35mm DIN rail with adequate ventilation clearance (minimum 50mm above and below)
  • Use appropriately sized circuit protection (10A recommended) on AC input
  • Verify output voltage setting before connecting sensitive equipment
  • Parallel multiple units for redundancy or increased current capacity (with external diode isolation)
  • Monitor DC-OK relay contact for system health diagnostics and alarm integration

Warranty & Support

Every Allen-Bradley 1606-XLB120E includes a 12-month manufacturer warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. Our technical support team provides application assistance, troubleshooting guidance, and replacement coordination to minimize your operational disruptions.
