Buffer Block S8T-DCBU-02 Prevents Equipment Stoppage, Data Loss, and Other Problems Resulting from Momentary Power Failures • Provides a backup time of 500 ms at an output current of 2.5 A. • Can be wired to the 24-V output from the S8VS, S82J, S82K, and S8PS Power Supplies.
2. Refer to Backup Time on page 10 for details. 3. Refer to Functions on page 7 for details. 4. If the number of S8T-DCBU-02 Buffer Blocks to be connected is “N,” set the detection current to 20 mA × N. 5. Specified by S8TS-06024@ connection.
Power Supply and the Buffer Block must be fully charged. If three or more S8T-DCBU-02 Buffer Block are used in parallel operation and the backup current exceeds 5 A, the momentary power failure time that can be compensated for will be reduced.

Note: 1. The backup time may be reduced if a fixed power load (such as a DC-DC converter) is connected. 2. If the input voltage increases, the output voltage for the backup operation will also increase, reducing the backup time due to the higher power consumption of the load. S8T-DCBU-02 Buffer Block...
