Q2: What is the input voltage range of the LXN 1604-6 power supply module? Can it be directly connected to 220V or 380V?

A: The LXN 1604-6 power supply module adopts wide range AC/DC input design, supporting universal AC input and DC input. However, descriptions of the specific input voltage range from various public sources are inconsistent. It is recommended to Contact via email for confirmation or provide official data sheet.

Input voltage range reference from various public sources:


Can it be directly connected to 220V?

  • Yes. 220V AC single-phase AC input is within the input range given by all public sources (85-264VAC or 90-350VAC or 100-240VAC), 220V is within range. The product title of abbsaul.com clearly indicates "AC 220V", indicating that 220V is a typical input voltage of this power supply module.
  • 220V AC is one of the most commonly used single-phase AC voltage standards worldwide. The wide range input design of this power supply module is 

Can it be directly connected to 380V?

  • It is not recommended to directly connect to 380V AC. 380V is usually the line voltage of a three-phase AC system, while this power supply module is designed for single-phase AC input.....
  • If any two phases (line voltage 380V) of a 380V three-phase power supply are connected to the single-phase input power supply module, the input voltage may exceed the rated input range of the module (max 264VAC or 350VAC), causing damage to the power supply module.
  • If power needs to be drawn from a 380V three-phase system, take the voltage between any one phase and the neutral line (phase voltage 220V), not the line voltage between two phases (380V).
  • The "110V-380V" mentioned by may be an inaccurate description, or refers to the approximate value of the DC input range (90-350VDC), and is not recommended as a basis for connecting 380V AC.

Recommended correct wiring methods:

  1. 220V AC single-phase input: Connect the live wire (L) and neutral wire (N) of 220V single-phase AC power to the AC input terminal of the power supply module, and connect the protective earth (PE) to the grounding terminal of the module. This is the most common and recommended wiring method.
  2. 110V/120V AC single-phase input: In regions using 110V/120V AC systems such as North America, 110V/120V single-phase AC power can be directly connected to the input terminal. The wide range input design can automatically adapt.
  3. DC input: If using DC power (such as DC bus, battery system), connect DC power to the input terminal, pay attention to positive and negative polarity (specific input range Contact via email, reference 90-350VDC).
  4. Drawing power from 380V three-phase system: Take any one phase and the neutral line (phase voltage 220V), do not take two-phase line voltage (380V). If the system has no neutral line, a control transformer is needed to step down 380V to 220V before connecting to the power supply module.

Important reminders:

  • Before wiring, be sure to confirm that the input voltage is within the rated input range of the power supply module to avoid module damage due to overvoltage.
  • The input terminal and output terminal of the power supply module must be correctly distinguished. It is strictly forbidden to connect input power to the output terminal, otherwise it will cause permanent damage.
  • Protective earth (PE) must be reliably connected to ensure personal safety and electromagnetic compatibility performance.
  • It is recommended to equip the input side with a suitable circuit breaker or fuse as overcurrent protection.
  • For specific input voltage range and wiring method, please refer to the official data sheet. It is recommended to Contact via email for confirmation.

Q3: How to determine if a power supply module is faulty? What should be noted during replacement?

A: To determine whether the LXN 1604-6 power supply module is faulty, comprehensive evaluation is required from multiple aspects such as appearance inspection, input/output voltage measurement, load testing, and operating status monitoring. Electrical safety operation procedures must be followed during replacement.

Methods to determine if power supply module is faulty:

1. Appearance inspection

  • Housing deformation/discoloration: Check whether the power supply module housing has bulging, deformation, discoloration, burn marks, which may be caused by internal overheating or component damage.
  • Terminal damage/looseness: Check whether input and output terminals have damage, looseness, oxidation, corrosion, and whether wiring is firm. Loose terminals may cause poor contact, heating, or even arcing.
  • Odor/smoke: Check whether there is burnt smell, electrolyte odor, or smoke marks, which are obvious signs of internal component burnout.
  • Fan abnormality (if any): If the power supply module is equipped with a cooling fan, check whether the fan is operating normally, whether there is abnormal noise, slow speed, or stop. Fan failure will cause the power supply to overheat.
  • Indicator status: If the power supply module has a power indicator (DC OK / Power LED), check whether the indicator is normally lit. Indicator not lit may indicate the power supply is not working or the indicator is damaged; indicator flashing may indicate the power supply is in protection state.
  • Dust/contamination: Check whether the surface and cooling holes of the power supply module are heavily dusty. Dust accumulation will affect heat dissipation, causing the power supply to overheat, derate, or fail.

2. Input voltage measurement

  • Measure input voltage: Use a multimeter AC voltage range to measure the voltage at the input terminal of the power supply module, confirm the input voltage is within the rated range (reference 85-264VAC or 90-350VDC).
  • Check input power: If the input voltage is zero or too low, check whether the upstream circuit breaker has tripped, the fuse has blown, wiring is loose, and the power switch is on.
  • Check input voltage stability: Measure the input voltage when the power supply module starts and is loaded, observe whether there is significant voltage drop. Excessive input voltage drop may indicate insufficient upstream distribution capacity or excessive line impedance.
  • Note: When measuring input voltage, must pay attention to safety, use well-insulated test probes to avoid electric shock.

3. Output voltage measurement

  • Measure no-load output voltage: Power on the input terminal of the power supply module, with no load connected to the output terminal (or disconnect the load), measure the voltage at the output terminal. Under normal conditions, the output voltage should be close to the rated value 27V DC (specific accuracy Contact via email, reference ±1%).
    • If output voltage is zero: The power supply module may not start, is in protection state, or has internal fault.
    • If output voltage is significantly lower than 27V (such as lower than 24V): The power supply module may be faulty, in overload protection state, or input voltage is insufficient.
    • If output voltage is significantly higher than 27V (such as higher than 30V): The output voltage regulation circuit of the power supply module may be faulty, there is overvoltage risk, should immediately power off.
    • If output voltage fluctuates greatly or is unstable: The power supply module may be faulty, or the load has short-circuit/intermittent fault.
  • Measure loaded output voltage: Measure the output voltage when the power supply module is under normal load, observe whether the output voltage is stable within the rated range. The output voltage should have a small drop when loaded, but should not exceed the allowable range.
    • If output voltage drops significantly under load: The power supply module may have insufficient power, internal fault, or overload.
    • If output voltage ripple is large under load: The output filter capacitor may be aged and failed, or the power supply module has internal fault.
  • Measure output voltage ripple: Use an oscilloscope (AC coupling) to measure the voltage ripple and noise at the output terminal. Under normal conditions, the ripple should be small (specific value Contact via email, reference ≤1% or ≤100mVpp). Significantly increased ripple may indicate output filter capacitor aging, power supply module internal fault, or excessive load transient current.

4. Load testing

  • Step-by-step loading test: Connect an adjustable electronic load or actual load to the output terminal of the power supply module, gradually increase the load current, observe whether the output voltage is stable.
    • If output is normal under light load, but output voltage drops significantly or power supply shuts down after load increases to a certain extent: The power supply module may have insufficient power, internal component aging, or over-temperature protection.
    • If output voltage is stable and temperature is normal under rated load: The power supply module is basically normal.
  • Short-circuit test (operate with caution): Under safe conditions, the output terminal can be briefly short-circuited, observe whether the power supply module enters short-circuit protection state (output current limiting or shutdown), and whether it auto-recovers after short-circuit removal.
    • Note: Short-circuit test has certain risks, it is recommended to use the short-circuit function of the electronic load, do not directly short-circuit the output terminal with a wire.
  • Peak power test: Apply short-time high-power load (exceeding rated power) to the output terminal of the power supply module, observe whether the power supply module can provide short-term peak power without entering protection.

5. Operating status monitoring

  • Temperature monitoring: Use an infrared thermometer to measure the temperature of the power supply module housing and heat sink. Excessive temperature (exceeding rated temperature) may indicate power supply overload, fan failure, poor heat dissipation, or internal fault.
  • Operating sound: Listen to whether the power supply module has abnormal sounds during operation, such as howling, squeaking, crackling. Abnormal sounds may indicate internal component fault, transformer saturation, or capacitor failure.
  • Drive fault records: Analyze the fault records of the variable frequency drive. If control power faults, undervoltage faults, communication interruptions, control board resets, etc. occur frequently, it may be related to unstable output or fault of the power supply module.
  • Operating time statistics: Based on the operating time and working conditions (temperature, load rate, input voltage) of the power supply module, estimate the remaining service life. When reaching 80% of the design life, consider preventive replacement.

Notes during power supply module replacement:

1. Safety first

  • Complete power off: Before replacement, must disconnect the input power and output load of the power supply module, confirm all relevant circuit breakers are disconnected, fuses are removed, execute Lockout Tagout (LOTO).
  • Voltage verification confirmation: Use a calibrated multimeter or voltage tester to confirm there is no voltage at both the input terminal and output terminal of the power supply module before operation. Note: The large-capacity capacitor inside the power supply module may store charge. After power off, wait for a period of time to let it discharge, or use a discharge tool to discharge.
  • Personal protection: Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including insulating gloves, goggles, flame retardant work clothes, etc.
  • Insulated tools: Use insulated tools for operation, avoid tools simultaneously contacting live terminals.

2. Pre-replacement preparation

  • Confirm model: Confirm the new power supply module part number (3BHL000986P7000), model (LXN 1604-6), output specification (27V DC/500W) are consistent with the original module.
  • Inspect new module: Check the appearance of the new power supply module is intact, terminals are complete, no transportation damage, verify product identification and factory test report.
  • Record original state: Before replacement, record the installation position, input wiring method, output wiring method, terminal number, input voltage, output voltage and other information of the original power supply module, take photos for record, for easy restoration.
  • Prepare tools and materials: Prepare screwdrivers, torque wrench, multimeter, insulating tape, cable ties, labels and other tools and materials.

3. Remove old module

  • Again confirm power off: Again use a multimeter to confirm there is no voltage at both the input terminal and output terminal of the power supply module.
  • Disconnect output wiring: First disconnect the output terminal wiring, mark the position and polarity of each wire to avoid wrong connection during restoration.
  • Disconnect input wiring: Then disconnect the input terminal wiring (live wire L, neutral wire N, protective earth PE), mark the position of each wire.
  • Remove module: Release the DIN-rail snap, remove the power supply module from the DIN rail. Be careful not to pull the wiring forcefully to avoid damaging terminals.
  • Check installation position: Check whether the DIN rail is intact, whether the installation position is clean, and whether there are items around that hinder the installation of the new module.

4. Install new module

  • Install on rail: Snap the new power supply module into the DIN rail, ensure the snap is locked, the module is firmly installed without looseness.
  • Connect input wiring: Connect the input terminal wiring (live wire L, neutral wire N, protective earth PE) according to the marks, ensure wiring is firm, contact is good, torque meets requirements. Note that input terminal and output terminal should not be connected reversely.
  • Connect output wiring: Connect the output terminal wiring (positive +, negative -) according to the marks, pay attention to polarity not to be reversed, ensure wiring is firm.
  • Check wiring: Check all wiring is correct, firm, no looseness, no short-circuit risk, input and output polarity correct, grounding reliable. Organize wiring, fix with cable ties, avoid wiring hindering heat dissipation.

5. Post-replacement inspection and testing

  • Appearance inspection: Check installation is firm, wiring is correct, no tools or debris left around, terminals are not exposed.
  • Insulation resistance test: Without energizing, use a megohmmeter to measure insulation resistance between input-output, input-ground, output-ground, confirm no short-circuit or poor insulation.
  • No-load energization test: First do not connect output load, close the input power, measure whether the output voltage is around 27V DC, whether the power indicator is normally lit, whether there is abnormal sound or odor.
  • Load test: Gradually connect output load, measure whether the output voltage is stable under load, observe whether the power supply module temperature is normal, whether there is abnormality.
  • System commissioning: Start the variable frequency drive system, observe whether control board, gate drive board, communication module, etc. work normally, and whether the drive has power-related fault alarms.
  • Record and archive: Record replacement date, power supply module serial number, test data (input voltage, output voltage, loaded voltage, temperature, etc.), operating status and other information, archive and save.

Important reminder: Replacement of power supply modules involves electrical operations, must be performed by professional engineers with electrical operation qualifications, strictly following electrical safety operation procedures and relevant power safety work regulations. Ensure personal safety and equipment safety. If unsure how to operate, it is recommended to contact ABB professional service team or professional variable frequency drive repair service provider for replacement.
