S8TS SERIES
Advanced Industrial Automation
Building-block power supply
with system back-up options

Omron’s S8TS is a revolution in design. The unique ‘building-block’
concept of the S8TS offers the flexibility, reliability, standardisation and
redundancy that control panel builders have been looking for in DC
power supplies. And to ensure that your system maintains a continuous
supply of power, Omron’s S8TS series, along with the DC back-up and
buffer blocks, guarantee the integrity of your system at all times!
Omron’s revolution
in power supply design!
Omron’s S8TS is the most flexible power supply system on the market
offering a standardised, cost-effective power supply solution. Its three
output types (5, 12 and 24VDC) allow you to configure more than
100 power supply configurations. Each ‘plug-together’ power unit allows
you to create collectives of 2.5, 5, 7.5 or 10A in 12 or 24VDC output
voltages. And a 5VDC, 5A block is also available. The standard sized,
DIN-rail mounting units make initial panel layout a simple operation.
As your load requirements change, increasing or decreasing your
power output capacity takes just minutes to achieve. These units,
at just 42 mm wide, can be added as required
up to a maximum of 10 Amps per group.

DC back-up unit
The S8T DC-BU-01 is an innovative DC battery back-up unit that
can be easily added to the S8TS power supply to ensure system
integrity at all times. There’s no wiring required with this unit;
it simply plugs into the right or left side of the power supply
block. Once in place, this back-up block ensures continuous
power to your system for up to 4 minutes (at 8A), so that no
valuable production time is lost in the event of a power failure.
The S8T DC-BU-01 takes its input from 2 x 12V batteries, which
are connected in series and mounted on a battery holder.
The external battery is wired to the topside of the DC back-up
block, while the DC output is on the lower side.
Buffer unit
The S8T-DCBU-02 buffer block is the perfect solution for
preventing stoppages in equipment operation, data loss and
other problems resulting from a momentary power loss.
This buffer block provides a back-up power source for at least
500ms (at 2.5A) to 1s (at 1A). Up to four of these blocks can
be connected in parallel to increase the back-up time and
current handling capacity. It connects to the S8TS in a simple
click-on action via the S8T-BUS03 bus connector. It can also
be used with other Omron’s power supplies. This maintenance-
free buffer block is one of the most cost-efficient ways
of protecting your system!
Connecting it all together
Omron has developed unique busconnectors as a way
of connecting the S8TS series. The connectors allow you
to connect the input voltage internally to all linked power
supply units. Three types of bus connectors are available.
With the parallel bus connector (S8T-BUS01) you can connect
12 or 24VDC units together to provide a power supply capacity
of 60 to 240W for standard operation. The isolated bus
connector (S8T-BUS02) lets you create a single, collective power
supply block with mixed output voltages (24, 12 or 5VDC).
And the input circuit continues through the connector, keeping
the wiring simple and reliable. The bus connector S8T-BUS03
is used for the DC Back-Up system to connect S8TS 24V output
blocks to the DC back-up block (S8T-DCBU-01), and to connect
the buffer unit (S8T-DCBU-02).
Reliability built into your system!
Thanks to the unique building block concept of the S8TS you
can design in redundancy protection (N+1) into your power
supply by adding an extra unit. If one of the units fails, this
additional unit takes up the shortfall of the current requirement
until the defective power block isreplaced. A defective unit
is easyto locate via its LED status indicator.
Building in this kind of redundancy improves the reliability
of your system and is vital in continuous production
environments where a power failure - no matter how short –
can disrupt a whole process.

World-wide compatibility
Each S8TS unit accepts an input voltage of between 85 and
264VAC (47 to 63Hz), making it suitable for connecting to the
mains supply of many countries. The S8TS is CE marked and
approved to the latest European legislation regarding noise
and emissions, so it can be used in all new systems, as well
as a replacement for old or failed units. The S8TS is approved
to the applicable UL and CSA standards, so it can be used
in both domestic and export markets. In addition, the S8TS
range complies with the latest European regulations
amendment regarding Power Factor Correction
(EN61000-3-2 and EN61000-3-2 A14) and SEMI F47-0200
for the S8T-DCBU-02.

In a process-controlled
environment any
disruption in power could
result in huge data losses.
An S8TS system can
provide continuous power
to vital areas and prevent
data loss in the event
of a power failure.
In the chemical and
bio-chemical industries,
indicators like Omron’s
K3MA series closely
monitor the temperature
and pressure of hazardous
chemical containers.
The S8TS ensures that
these indicators keep
working, even if there’s
a power failure.
The S8TS provides
continuous power
to safety sensors (like
Omron’s F3SN) so that
personnel are always
protected in hazardous
environments like
automotive production
lines, even if there’s
a power failure.
If power fails in a factory
automation system,
employees need to see at
a glance what the system
status is. The S8TS system
can provide continuous
power to the HMI (like
Omron’s NS terminal),
so that personnel have
continuous access to all
relevant data.
Any power outage,
no matter how short, can
cause huge problems in
precise production
processes like microchip
manufacturing. The S8TS
offers a very reliable,
cost-effective, continuous
power solution.
Using the S8TS to power
an alarm system with
sensors will ensure that
burglars on your premises
will always be detected,
even if they sabotage
the power cables.
