Product Description

Overview

The ABB 1MRK000614-AB is a robust internal power supply module designed for ABB Relion 670 and 650 series protection relays. This module converts substation battery voltages into precise internal voltages required for reliable operation of IED processors and I/O boards. Engineered for high availability, it ensures uninterrupted relay functionality under grid disturbances and voltage variations.

Key Features

Wide Input Voltage Compatibility
Supports a broad input range of 48–250 V DC and 100–240 V AC, enabling deployment across global substation standards without additional adapters.

Advanced Surge and Noise Protection
Includes integrated suppression against high-frequency transients and temporary voltage surges to safeguard sensitive electronic circuits.

Built-in Monitoring and Diagnostics
Equipped with internal voltage supervision and a fail-safe binary output ("Watchdog" contact) to signal critical power supply faults.

High Efficiency with Low Heat Output
Switching-mode design reduces thermal stress on the enclosure, enhancing reliability and extending MTBF of connected components.

Bridging Time for Event Capture
Provides short-term energy storage (>40 ms) to maintain relay operation during momentary power loss, ensuring proper logging and GOOSE communication continuity.

Technical Specifications

Applications

Ideal for substation protection relays in power distribution, transmission, and industrial automation where high reliability and precision voltage conversion are critical.
