1SVR427060R2000 ABB CP-B 24/20.0 Buffer Module 24 V DC 20 A

Why Choose the ABB CP-B 24/20.0 Buffer Module?

The ABB CP-B 24/20.0 (1SVR427060R2000) is a high-performance 24 V DC buffer module designed to maintain a continuous power supply to industrial control and automation equipment during short-term supply interruptions. As part of the reliable ABB CP-B buffer module series, it uses advanced ultra-capacitor technology to provide temporary backup power without the maintenance requirements associated with conventional battery-based systems.

This industrial buffer module helps protect sensitive control equipment against unexpected voltage drops and power interruptions, reducing the risk of PLC resets, machine stoppages and production downtime. Its maintenance-free energy storage technology, integrated status monitoring and expandable buffering capacity make it particularly suitable for demanding industrial automation applications.

With a 24 V DC rated input and output voltage, a 20 A rated output current and an internal energy storage capacity of 8,000 Ws, the CP-B 24/20.0 provides reliable short-term power continuity for industrial control systems. Its compact DIN rail-mounted design enables straightforward installation inside electrical control cabinets, while compatibility with additional CP-B EXT.2 extension modules allows increased buffering duration when required.

Reliable 24 V DC Power Buffering for Industrial Automation

Industrial automation systems rely on stable DC power supplies to ensure continuous operation of PLCs, industrial controllers, communication equipment and other sensitive electronic devices. Even a brief interruption to the supply voltage can cause unexpected equipment resets, production stoppages or interruptions to automated processes. The ABB CP-B 24/20.0 buffer module helps minimise these risks by temporarily supplying stored electrical energy whenever the primary 24 V DC supply is interrupted.

During normal operation, the module charges its internal ultra-capacitors while allowing the connected equipment to receive power from the primary DC supply. When the input voltage is interrupted, the stored energy supports the connected load for a limited period. At its full 20 A rated load, the module provides a typical buffering time of more than 15 s, with longer buffering durations available at reduced load currents.

For applications requiring additional backup time, the CP-B 24/20.0 supports connection of up to two ABB CP-B EXT.2 extension modules. Each extension module provides an additional 2,000 Ws of energy storage, increasing the available buffering capacity without introducing conventional battery maintenance requirements.

The integrated relay contacts and LED indicators provide useful diagnostic information for industrial control systems, while the dedicated SHUT-DOWN input allows the buffering function to be selectively disabled. Combined with its robust construction, wide operating temperature range and DIN rail-mounted design, the CP-B 24/20.0 is an effective solution for improving the resilience of industrial DC power distribution systems.
