Abnormal
One of the following three abnormal current tripping types can be set. With the S8AS-24006N/48008N, only the standard
current tripping
detection is supported.
Refer to Chart 2. Standard Detection: Tripping within 100 ms. (Abnormal current will be detected and the output will be cut off within 20 ms if
current continuously exceeds the set value for more than 80 ms.)
*1, *2
Instantaneous Detection: Tripping within 20 ms. (Abnormal current will be detected and the output will be cut off within 10 ms
if current continuously exceeds the set value for more than 10 ms.)

if current continuously exceeds the set value for more than 980 ms.)
Abnormal total
current tripping
*1, *2
Using the abnormal total current tripping function, the S8AS monitors the total output current and when the total output current
exceeds the set value, all branch outputs are cut off. Notification of the status is provided using the alarm display and the
tripping alarm output (TRP). The error code A12 will be shown on the display. There are a number of conditions for the tripping
current and time. If even one of these conditions is detected, the abnormal total current tripping function will be activated.
240 W: Branch outputs are cut off when the total output current is more than 17 A for 2 s, 15 A for 5 s, 13 A for 10 s, or 12 A
for 20 s.
480 W: Branch outputs are cut off when the total output current is more than 27 A for 1 s, 25 A for 2 s, or 22.5 A for 5 s.
The output can be cut off by inputting a voltage to the external tripping input (TRG terminal). If a shutdown sequence has been
set, outputs will be cut off according to the shutdown sequence.
Each branch output can be enabled or disabled individually. On the S8AS-24006N/S8AS-48008N, all branch outputs are

Maintenance Forecast Monitor Function
Indication and Output
Example: Display When the Time Remaining to the
Maintenance Time Is Less Than 0.5 yr
When the Product is purchased, “ful” will be displayed. As the
electrolytic capacitors deteriorate, the display will change to “hlf”
(Refer to Maintenance Forecast Monitor Function). “ful” will be
displayed for the maintenance forecast display for approximately one
month after the Power Supply is first turned ON. The accumulated
value will then be displayed depending on the ambient conditions.
(However, the “hlf” display may not appear, depending on the
application environment and the set value for maintenance forecast.)
If the maintenance forecast setting L (which can be set to 0.0 to 5.0
years in 0.5-year increments) is set to a value larger than two years,
the display automatically changes to a value (L - 0.5) after the
remaining time to maintenance is reduced to the set number of years,
and an alarm (A23) and the remaining time will be displayed
alternately.
If the setting is less than 2.0 years, the display changes to a value
(1.5) after the remaining time becomes less than two years, and after
the remaining time becomes less than the set time, an alarm (A23)
and the remaining time (L - 0.5) will be displayed alternately.
If the alarm (A23) and a numeric value are displayed alternately, the
transistor (maintenance forecast output terminal (Yrs)) will turn OFF
to indicate the need for maintenance., i.e., there will be no continuity
at the maintenance forecast output terminals.
(The LEF output will turn OFF when the maintenance time has been
reached.)

Note: 1. The time remaining to maintenance is based on continuous
operation, not including the time when the power supply is

2. “ful” will be displayed until approximately one month of
time has passed to enable estimating the speed of
deterioration. The output will remain ON (i.e., there will be
continuity at the maintenance forecast output terminal
(Yrs)).
3. For details on the display, refer to Relationship between
Displayed Values and Output of Set Values.
Maintenance Forecast Monitor Function
The maintenance forecast monitor function shows an approximate
period left for maintenance of the Power Supply due to deterioration
of electrolytic capacitors. When the period left for maintenance that
the power supply forecasts reaches the set value, an alarm is
indicated and an output signal is triggered. Use this function to know
the approximate replacement timing of the Power Supply.
Note: The maintenance forecast monitor function indicates an
approximate period left for maintenance, based on
deterioration of the electrolytic capacitors. It does not predict
failures resulting from other causes.
The Power Supply is equipped with electrolytic capacitors.
The electrolyte inside the electrolytic capacitors penetrates the
sealing rubber and evaporates as time passes after it is
manufactured. This causes deterioration of characteristics, such as
decreasing the capacitance.
Due to this deterioration of the characteristics of the electrolytic
capacitor, the Power Supply decreases its performance as time
passes.

S8AS
Principle of Operation
Difference between Expected Life and Replacement Time
The deterioration speed of the electrolytic capacitors varies
considerably with the ambient temperature. (Generally the speed
follows the Arrhenius Law, i.e., for every 10°C increase in the
temperature, the rate of degradation doubles.) The S8AS monitors
the temperature inside the Power Supply, and calculates the amount
of deterioration according to the operating hours and internal
temperature.
OMRON calculates the expected life based on the following
conditions.
1. Rated input voltage
2. Load rate: 50%
3. Ambient temperature: 40°C
4. Standard Mounting
Based on this amount of deterioration, the Power Supply will provide
an alarm indication and output when the period left for maintenance
reaches the set value.
Note: 1. Due to degradation of internal electronic parts, replace the
Power Supply approximately 15 years after purchase even
if the maintenance forecast monitor indication and output do
not appear.
2. The maintenance forecast is accelerated or decelerated
according to operating conditions. Periodically check the
display.
3. Acceleration or deceleration of the maintenance forecast
may cause the output to repeatedly go ON and OFF.
4. The accuracy of the maintenance forecast function may be
adversely affected by applications in which the AC input is
frequently turned ON and OFF.
Note: The expected life is calculated by performing a temperature rise
test using an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, and therefore is
not a guaranteed value.
The expected life span of the S8AS is 10 years.
The maintenance forecast is the service life (the Power Supply's
internal temperature is monitored at all times) of the internal
electrolytic capacitors in actual operating conditions, and depends on
the customer's operating conditions. The maximum period of the
maintenance forecast is taken as 15 years.
Other Functions
Function
Operation
Startup sequence
(Refer to Chart 5.)
The connection timing for branch outputs 1 to 6 and 8 can be set individually to offset the connection timing to the load
devices. Creating time delays between starting loads enables safer load operation. It also reduces total inrush current so
that power supply capacity can be optimized.
Setting range:
0.0 to 99.9 s in 0.1-s increments.
For the S8AS-24006N and S8AS-48008N, the settings are 0.0 s for branch output 1, 0.4 s for branch
output 2, 0.8 s for branch output 3, 1.2 s for branch output 4, 1.6 s for branch output 5, 2.0 for branch

of 0.0 s. (Cannot be changed.) *
Startup Delay
A delay function is provided so that the abnormal current tripping function
or overcurrent alarm function will not be triggered by large initial inrush
currents, e.g., for capacitive loads or lamp loads. The abnormal current
tripping function will function once the set time has elapsed.

Precautions for Safe Use
Mounting
• The long-term reliability of the S8AS can be increased by installing
it properly and providing sufficient heat dissipation. Use the S8AS
within the derating curve. The S8AS is designed to radiate heat by
means of natural air circulation. Provide appropriate space as
shown below to allow air flow around the Power Supplies.
• Poor heat dissipation resulting from improper installation
conditions may occasionally deteriorate or damage internal parts
and also cause the maintenance forecast monitor function to not
operate properly. Do not use any mounting orientation other than
a standard one.
• Poor heat dissipation may deteriorate or damage internal parts. Do
not loosen the screws on the side of the Product.
• Do not allow any pieces of metal or conductors, or any clippings or
cuttings resulting from installation work to enter the Product.

vibration. A device such as a contact breaker may be a vibration
source. Set the Product as far as possible from possible sources of
shock or vibration. Additionally, install a PFP-M End Plate on each
end of the Product after mounting it to a DIN Rail.
• If the Product is used in an area with excessive electronic noise, be
sure to separate the Product as far as possible from the noise
sources.
Ambient Operating and Storage Environment
• Store the Product at an ambient temperature of −25 to 65°C and
relative humidity of 25% to 90%.
• Internal parts may occasionally be deteriorated or damaged. Do
not use the Product in conditions exceeding the derating curve (in
portion (1) of the Derating Curve on page 8).
• Use the Product where the relative humidity is 25% to 85%.
• Do not use the Product where it would be subjected to direct
sunlight.
• Do not use the Product where it would be subjected to the
possibility of penetration of liquid, foreign substance, or corrosive
gas.
• To maintain performance of the maintenance forecast monitor,
make sure the following conditions are satisfied for long-term
storage. For storage exceeding three months, keep the Product at
a temperature of −20°C to 30°C and a humidity of 25% to 70%.
Output Voltage Adjustment
• The output voltage adjuster (V.ADJ.) may possibly become
damaged. Do not apply more than the required force.
• Do not exceed the rated output capacity and rated total output
current after adjusting the output voltage.
Periodic Inspections
Under normal operating conditions, the Product will require several
years or even more than ten years until the maintenance forecast
monitor function operates. When using the Product for an extended
period of time, perform the following procedure periodically to confirm
that the output for the maintenance forecast monitor function (LFE) is
operating correctly.
a) Change to Run Mode.
b) Confirm that the (LFE) output is ON (i.e., that there is electrical
continuity between (LEF) and (COM)).
Maintenance Forecast Monitor Function
The accuracy of the maintenance forecast monitor function will be
reduced in applications where the AC input turns ON and OFF
frequently.
Total Peak Output Current
The S8AS is designed to provide a temporary peak current to provide
the overcurrent required to start load devices.
The total peak output current for all branch outputs combined is given
below. However, if even one of the following conditions is not satisfied
by the total current, all branch outputs will be cut off to ensure safety
based on the amount of peak current and the usage time.
• 240-W Models
Input voltage range: 200 to 240 VAC
Total peak current/Peak current pulse width:
17 A max./2 s max.
15 A max./5 s max.
13 A max./10 s max.
12 A max./20 s max.
• 480-W Models
Input voltage range: 200 to 240 VAC
Total peak current/Peak current pulse width:
27 A max./1 s max.
25 A max./2 s max.
22.5 A max./5 s max.
Note: 1. If the input voltage range is outside of the range given
above, or if the total output current exceeds the maximum
peak current, the S8AS may be cut off due to unstable
internal operation.
2. After the load device has been started, ensure that the total
current in steady state remains within the rated values.
3. When the peak current has exceeded the rated current, do
not allow the peak current to flow again for the next 60
seconds.
Startup Sequence and Shutdown Sequence
The sequencing functions are designed for the branch outputs of one
S8AS. There is no synchronizing processing between S8AS when
more than one S8AS is used.
Startup Delay
The startup delay will not operate when a relay or other device is used
for ON/OFF control on the output side of the S8AS, so a cutoff
operation may occasionally occur.
Dielectric Strength Test
• The S8AS is designed to withstand 3,000 VAC for 1 minute
between the AC input terminals collectively and the branch output,
I/O signal, or communications terminals collectively. When testing,
set the cutoff current for the withstand voltage test device to 20 mA.
• The S8AS may possibly be damaged from the impulse voltage if a
testing device switch is used to abruptly apply or cut off 3000 VAC.
Increase the applied voltage gradually using the voltage
adjustment on the testing device.
• When testing terminals together, always short the specified
terminals so that the voltage is applied to all of the terminals at the
same time.
Precautions for Correct Use
Tripping Performance
• When the tripping alarm output operates, always remove the cause
of the output first and then reset the alarm.
• When using a load with a fixed-power operation, the S8AS may
cause a cutoff when the power supply is turned OFF.
• Outputs may be cut off by the abnormal voltage protection with
loads that generate reverse peak electromotive force.
• Tripping performance is depends on the ambient operating
temperature. Use the Product within the derating range. Refer to
the Derating Curve on page 8.
• It is conceivable that internal parts may be deteriorated or
damaged. Do not repeatedly perform cutoff or recovery operations
more than necessary.

S8AS
Insulation Resistance Test
• When testing the insulation resistance, use a DC resistance meter
at 500 VDC.
• To prevent damage, always short branch output terminals (+/−), all
I/O terminals, and communications terminals before testing.
Prohibition of Parallel Connection
Do not connect branch outputs from the S8AS in parallel. Also, do not
connect the branch outputs in parallel with branch outputs of other
S8AS Power Supplies.
S8AS
Output Voltage Adjustment
• If the output voltage is set to less than 20 V (default setting), the
undervoltage alarm may be activated.
• Do not exceed the rated output capacity and rated total output
current after adjusting the output voltage.
• The output voltage may increase beyond the allowable voltage
range rated voltage +10% when the V.ADJ adjuster is used. When
adjusting the output voltage, check the output voltage of the power
supply to make sure that the load is not damaged.
Displaying the Output Voltage
S8AS
S8AS
Connections cannot be made in parallel
with other branch output circuits.
The voltage detection is performed on the voltage after AC/DC
conversion in the interval circuits. The displayed voltage will be
somewhat different from the value at the output terminals of the power
source due to internal voltage drop. To confirm correct output
voltages, measure the voltages at the branch output terminals.
Connecting Backup Devices
No Output Voltage
A harmonic current suppression circuit is built into the Power Supply.
This circuit can create noise when the input is turned ON, but it will
last only until the internal circuits stabilize and does not indicate any
problem in the Product.
The internal circuit's overcurrent protection or overvoltage protection
may operate. Alternatively, the latch protection circuit may operate if
there is a lightning inrush or other large voltage applied to the input.
Contact your OMRON representative if there is still no output voltage
after checking the following two points:
• Checking Overcurrent Protection
Check whether the load is in an overcurrent or short-circuited state.
Remove the wires to the load before checking.
• Checking Overvoltage Protection and Latching Protection
Turn the power supply OFF and leave it OFF for at least 3 minutes,
then turn it ON again.
Do not connect a battery or other backup power supply to the output
of the Product.
Harmonic Current Suppression Circuit
Startup Time
At startup, the S8AS will check hardware and software before starting
the operation of branch outputs. A time of approximately 3 seconds is
required for these self-diagnostic functions. Take this time into
account when designing the system.
External Tripping Input
• Wire the polarity of the external tripping input correctly.
• After completing wiring, confirm that operation is correct.
Tripping Alarm Output,
Undervoltage Detection Output, Maintenance
Forecast Monitor Output,
and Over-temperature Output
Photoswitch outputs: 30 VDC max., 50 mA max., residual voltage
when ON: 2 V max., leakage current when OFF: 0.1 mA max.
• Wire all output signal circuits correctly.
• Internal current control circuits are not provided internally for output
signals. Do not allow the output current to exceed 50 mA.
• After completing wiring, confirm that the circuits operate correctly.
