System Power Guidelines

Legacy Bulk Power Supplies for System Power

The legacy bulk AC to 12 VDC and 24 VDC to 12 VDC power supplies provide 12 VDC power to the System Power Supply (Dual DC/DC) for one or more controllers and their associated I/O subsystems. However, if you are using the bulk power supply to provide power for more than one DeltaV system or for other equipment, refer to the I/O card specifications or use the simplified calculations in the installation worksheet to determine if there is sufficient capacity.
