What Is a DIN Rail Power Supply?

DIN rail is a German industrial standard. The use of rails is a way of installing industrial electrical components. Installing electrical components that support this standard can be easily clamped on the rails without fixing with screws, and maintenance is also very convenient.

The common rail width is 3.5cm. In the 21st century, many electrical components have adopted this standard, such as PLC, circuit breakers, switches, contactors and so on.

DIN rail dimensions are marked by width * depth * thickness. The general standards are: 1.0mm thickness, width: 35mm. Commonly used are: 35 * 7.5 * 1; 35 * 15 * 1; 35 * 15 * 1.5; 35 * 16 * 1.8, etc. The external dimensions of the guide rail are directly related to the effective cross-sectional area of the guide rail.
