1606-XLS240F Allen-Bradley 1606-XL Series 48 V DC 240 W Switched-Mode Power Supply
The 1606-XLS240F is a DIN-rail switched-mode power supply from the Allen-Bradley Bulletin 1606-XL series. It delivers 48 V DC, 5 A, 240 W with 92% typical efficiency. A 50% power reserve supports short load peaks. The unit suits machine builders, panel integrators, and MRO teams who need a stable DC bus in a compact housing. It carries UL 60950-1, cUL, and CE approvals. No communication interface is fitted, so commissioning stays simple and deterministic.

Installation Guide
- Snap the unit onto a standard DIN rail. Leave free air above and below.
- Use spring clamp terminals for input, output, and relay wiring.
- Keep AC input and DC output cables physically separated.
- Set the output trim to the load requirement within 48…56 V.
- Check the DC OK LED after power-up. Wire the relay contact to a PLC input if needed.
- Respect derating above +60 °C. Do not block the ventilation slots.
Commissioning and Maintenance
Commissioning is fast. Apply input voltage, confirm the DC OK indicator, then measure output at the terminals. No software or protocol setup is required. Maintenance is limited to periodic checks of terminal torque, dust on the housing, and output voltage drift. Replace the unit if ripple exceeds 100 mVpp under rated load.
Diagnostics
The DC OK relay contact gives a hard-wired health signal to the control system. The front LED shows output status at a glance. Combined with measured output voltage, these two indicators cover most fault cases: input loss, overload, and output deviation. The 50% power reserve helps ride through motor start and capacitive load peaks without shutdown.
Compatibility Notes
- Fits standard 35 mm DIN rail inside 1606-XL series panels.
- Pin-compatible with other 1606-XLS single-output units in the same power class.
- Suits 48 V DC loads: sensors, relays, valve islands, and small drives.
- No fieldbus or software dependency, so it drops into existing cabinets without reconfiguration.
Approvals and Certifications
UL 60950-1, cUL, and CE marking, per the official Bulletin 1606 series standard. IP20 protection rating per the XLS series product page.
