Choosing a Power Supply (Stereo ace)#

This topic contains information to help you choose a suitable power supply for Stereo ace cameras.

First of all, the power supply must be capable of supplying at least 1.5 A DC at 24 VDC. Another aspect to consider is the pulsed current draw pattern of the camera.

The following figure illustrates the current pattern for a camera operating with 5 ms exposure time and 5.5 fps. Actual current patterns depend on the exposure time and the frame rate.

Current Pattern of the Stereo ace Camera

This current pattern can be challenging for some low-end, low-cost AC/DC power supplies. This may lead to unstable operation of these power supplies. Ask your power supply vendor for support when in doubt whether a specific model is suitable for this mode of operation.

Examples of suitable power supplies:

Globtek GT-46600-6024-T3
Mean Well GSM60A24
Delta MDS-060AAS24 B
PULS ML60.241
