Allen-Bradley 1606 SMPS Operational Cost Savings White Paper

This white paper analyzes cost-saving strategies for system designers using industrial control transformers and Switched Mode Power Supplies (SMPSs) in control panels, focusing on reducing heat generation, inrush current, and overall operating costs. It compares the efficiency and thermal performance of Allen-Bradley 1606 SMPSs against competing brands, demonstrating how lower inrush and higher efficiency enable smaller transformers, reduced panel sizing, and lower total cost of ownership.
