2. Main Function
The SS823 acts as a power voter in redundant power supply configurations:
- Accepts two redundant 24 V DC power supply inputs.
- Combines them into a single reliable 24 V DC output.
- Monitors input and output voltage conditions.
- Provides supervision signals to the connected control system.
- Protects against overvoltage and overcurrent conditions.
It is commonly installed between ABB power supplies (such as SD83x/SD85x series) and High Integrity controllers or I/O systems.
