Siemens SITOP BUF1200 Buffer Modules

Siemens SITOP BUF1200 Buffer Modules bridge short-term power failures in a range of seconds. These Siemens buffer modules can be used with the 24V power supply units of all SITOP product lines. BUF1200 Buffer Modules are equipped with maintenance-free capacitors as energy storage units and automatically take over the 24V power supply in case of a line voltage failure. The buffer module is connected in parallel to the output of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The connection to the power supply requires only two cables. SITOP DC UPS modules protect against extended power failures.
