Uninterruptible power supplies protect 24 V supply voltages from unexpected power failures. Capacitive UPS solutions from BLOCK’s Power Compact series provide 24 V supply voltage up to the minute range. Featuring ultracapacitors they are designed for long lifetimes. For longer buffer periods, we also offer space-saving Power Compact combination modules as uninterruptible power supplies with battery modules. The intelligent battery management and short charging times ensure maximum system availability.

As components, transformers have a significant influence on the functionality of technical processes and are used in applications primarily to adjust the voltage level. However, their use also enables the configuration of new types of mains. With the help of transformers, downstream equipment can be permanently designed for the same mains form and voltage, regardless of the operating conditions. The wide standard portfolio of BLOCK network, control, safety, isolation, auto, PCB, and toroidal transformers, as well as our laboratory power supplies, provide our customers with the right selection for constructing their system.

BLOCK customers benefit from an extensive standard range of switched mode power supplies for the reliable supply of machines and systems. The Power Compact, Power Mini, Power Vision, and Power Eco Line product lines provide both basic functions as well as comprehensive communications and optimum technical functionality. Make the most of the efficient, compact and robust features of the Power Mini and Power Compact series. Geared towards meeting high standards, the powerful switched-mode power supplies in the Power Vision series provide maximum power reserves and extensive configuration and monitoring options. Power Eco Line switched mode power supplies are suitable for single-phase use in small control systems.

Given the growing trend toward automation and digitization of production processes, there is an increasing need, at control voltage levels of 24 V, to ensure power supply and distribution are monitored as well. Electronic circuit breakers can perform this task. They support selective protection of DC circuits and offer far more tailored protection against overcurrent and short circuits than conventional circuit breakers. BLOCK offers one of the widest ranges of electronic circuit breakers for reliable protection of small control systems – and these can also be used for larger machinery and system arrangements. Both the EasyB modular single-channel system and the multichannel circuit breakers in the Power Compact and Power Mini series set the right standards in these areas, even where applications require particularly powerful, robust or compact products. To helps users find the best possible solution for their application at all times, all BLOCK circuit breakers are available with different tripping characteristics.

The requirements of modern systems and plants are becoming more and more complex through increased amounts of power and microelectronics. BLOCK provides a comprehensive range of reactors and filters here in order to guarantee reliability, efficiency and freedom from interference, including within the framework of Industry 4.0. The range includes filtering of harmonic distortions and high-frequency conducted and radiated interference emissions. The use of Power Quality products protects motor insulation and increases system efficiency by reducing leakage currents.
