It is suitable for powering up to eight modules from a single power supply. The current limiting circuitry in many switching power supplies will cause the supply to shut down upon power-up when a high current capacitive load is connected. Upon application of power, the TX-PD8X ramps the voltage up, charging any load capacitance as quickly as possible, then switching full voltage to the load. If reverse polarity is connected to the input, the TX-PD8X disconnects the load until the condition is corrected.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn system design, various modules are frequently operated from a single power supply. Good engineering practice requires that the power wiring to each module originate at the power supply output. The TX-PD8X serves as the power source for each of eight modules. The TX-PD8X normally provides power to ground-referenced modules. A front-panel switch permits the installer to enable external control. When the ON terminal is connected to ground, the TX-PD8X outputs are active. External control is possible using RDL detection or control modules, open-collector outputs from OEM equipment or controllers, or using a D-RT2 RDL remote wall control. The front-panel blue LED remains illuminated when the outputs are active.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistribution of 24 Vdc Power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft-Start from Switching Supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutputs may be Activated by an External Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutputs may be Activated by an Open-Collector closure to ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectly Controllable by RDL Remote Controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 8 Power Distribution Points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage Presence Indication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReverse Voltage Protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput\/Output Voltage: 24 Vdc @ 2 A (Intended for use with current limited switching supply)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutputs (8): Total load current must not exceed 2 A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndicator: POWER LED\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower Requirement: 24 Vdc @ 25 mA plus connected loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmbient Operating Environment: 0 C to 50 C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackage Dimensions: 2 X 2 X 4 in.; 5.08 X 5.08 X 10.16 cm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShipping Weight: 0.186 lbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RDL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42494535631026,"sku":"RDL TXPD8X","price":165.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0614\/8122\/2322\/products\/40783_sq.jpg?v=1665712565","url":"https:\/\/www.performanceaudio.com\/products\/radio-design-labs-tx-pd8x-switching-power-supply-distributor","provider":"Performance Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
