Overview

The Phoenix Contact QUINT‑ORING/24DC/2X10/1X20 is a redundancy module designed to maximize system availability in industrial automation. It allows connected power supplies to operate in parallel without affecting each other, preventing system downtime.

The module uses active ORing technology with MOSFETs instead of conventional diodes, significantly reducing power loss and increasing efficiency. It also integrates preventive monitoring functions to detect critical operating states before failures occur.

This module is ideal for critical applications where uninterrupted 24 V DC power is essential, such as process control, machine building, and energy systems.

Technical Data

Typical Applications

• Industrial automation panels requiring uninterrupted power supply.

• Process control systems where redundancy ensures maximum uptime.

• Machine building where critical loads must remain powered during supply failures.

• Energy distribution systems needing selective isolation of faulty power supplies.

Example: OEMs often use this module to connect two QUINT power supplies in parallel, ensuring continuous 24 V DC output even if one supply fails.
