ABB PM150 3BSE003641R1 Power Supply Module Drives Reliability in Industrial Automation

Zurich, Switzerland – [16.05.2025] – ABB, a global leader in industrial automation and electrification solutions, has reported surging adoption of its PM150 3BSE003641R1 power supply module across manufacturing, energy, and process industries. Designed to deliver uninterrupted power for critical control systems, the PM150 is gaining acclaim for its rugged performance and compliance with international safety standards, including IEC 61131-2 and UL 508.

Unmatched Stability for Mission-Critical Operations
The PM150 3BSE003641R1 provides 24V DC output with a power capacity of 150W, ensuring stable voltage regulation for ABB’s AC 800M PLCs, I/O modules, and other automation components. Its dual-redundant input design allows seamless integration into fail-safe architectures, minimizing downtime in industries such as steel production, chemical processing, and water treatment. Engineers praise its wide operating temperature range (-25°C to +70°C) and immunity to voltage fluctuations, which are critical in environments prone to electrical noise or extreme conditions.

Meeting Industry 4.0 Demands
As factories and utilities prioritize energy efficiency and predictive maintenance, the PM150’s diagnostic capabilities stand out. The module monitors load current, temperature, and output voltage in real time, enabling proactive fault detection through integration with ABB’s Ability™ Condition Monitoring platform. “Unplanned power disruptions in our automated assembly lines used to cost up to $500,000 per hour,” said [Name], a plant manager at [Global Automotive Manufacturer]. “Since deploying the PM150, we’ve reduced power-related downtime by 92%.”

Market Growth and Sustainability Alignment
According to [Market Research Firm], the global industrial power supply market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% through 2030, driven by smart manufacturing and renewable energy investments. The PM150 aligns with sustainability goals, boasting 94% energy efficiency and a 10-year lifecycle to reduce electronic waste. ABB also emphasizes its compatibility with renewable energy microgrids, supporting industries transitioning to low-carbon operations.

Cybersecurity and Scalability
In response to heightened ICS cybersecurity risks, ABB has equipped the PM150 with hardware-based tamper detection and firmware validation compliant with IEC 62443. Its modular design simplifies scalability, allowing engineers to expand power capacity without overhauling existing infrastructure—a key advantage for brownfield upgrades.
