Hi Guys,
I have a project with 10 Controllogix racks. I need to calculate power consumption.
For example, say if i have 16 analog input channels, would the following be correct?:
16channels*24VDC*20ma?
What would I do for a Discrete input and Discrete output cards and Analog output cards? I will need to take into account the worst case current.
Does the Rockwell Architecture builder actually take this into account or does it just calculate RACK POWER consumption and not the consumption of analog transmitters, control valves etc.?
I basically need to compute the power rating of the main 24VDC power supply going to the racks and instruments.
