Power Redundancy Options

There are three power configurations that offer various levels of power redundancy: N+1, 2N, and 2N+1.

Config. AC Power DC Power Feature Support

N+1

No redundancy

One PDU per Base or Drive Module

Provides one extra drive DC supply and one extra robotics DC supply

Limited support for T10000 drives and no redundant robotics support

2N

Redundant

Two PDUs per Base or Drive Module

Provides a set of DC power supplies for each PDU

Required for redundant robotics and redundant electronics support

Full support for T10000 drives.

2N+1

Redundant

Two PDUs per Base or Drive Module

Provides additional power supplies for each PDU, meaning N+1 DC power redundancy for each PDU (except the second PDU only has N DC power supply redundancy for the robot)

Supports redundant robotics and redundant electronics

Full support for T10000 drives.
