Description
ABB 560PSR00 1KGT026500R0001 Power Supply Unit
Product Introduction
Power architecture is often the first thing to check when troubleshooting an older RTU560 cabinet, because the rack supply feeds the controller and communication hardware rather than simply providing a generic 24 VDC field supply. The ABB 560PSR00 1KGT026500R0001 is an RTU560 rack power supply that generates both 5 VDC and 24 VDC for the 560MPR03 and 560SFR02 subracks. ABB documentation identifies the R0001 version with a 24–60 VDC input range and 44.3 W output power.
The ABB 560PSR00 1KGT026500R0001 is also designed for redundant supply arrangements. Two units of the same type can operate in parallel, with controlled load sharing and the ability for one supply to assume the load if the other fails. Its outputs include 5 VDC and 24 VDC rails, while input/output isolation, electronic output limitation, short-circuit protection, input overvoltage protection, and reverse-voltage protection are documented features.

The RTU500 rack documentation specifies 44 W-class output capability, with 5 VDC at up to 5.5 A and 24 VDC at up to 0.7 A for the 560PSR00. ABB also cautions that the total rack current consumption should be calculated before selecting the power supply configuration.
Application Scenarios & Pain Points
RTU560 Subrack Power
The 560PSR00 is intended specifically for RTU560 rack architectures rather than general-purpose industrial 24 VDC distribution. It generates the internal 5 VDC and 24 VDC rails required by the supported RTU560 subracks.

560PSR00
Substation and Grid Automation
systems are used in grid automation and control applications, including substation automation and transformer automation. The 560PSR00 provides the rack-level power infrastructure for the associated communication and control modules.
Redundant Power Configurations
Where supply availability is important, two 560PSR00 units can be configured in parallel. ABB documentation specifies controlled load balancing and monitoring for this arrangement. The two supplies must be of the same type for the documented redundant configuration.
Legacy Maintenance
For an existing cabinet, replacing the power supply without checking rack loading is a common procurement mistake. Communication-unit count, I/O configuration, and the actual 5 VDC/24 VDC load should be checked before assuming that one 560PSR00 is adequate. ABB’s rack documentation explicitly advises calculating the total current consumption.

These parts belong to the same RTU500/ architecture, but they are not interchangeable substitutes. In particular, 560PSR00, 560PSU01, and 560PSU02 differ in input-voltage range and available output power, so the cabinet’s DC source must be checked before selecting an alternative.
Engineer’s Guide — Field Pitfalls to Avoid
1. Do not mistake 560PSR00 for a generic 24 VDC supply.
It generates both 5 VDC and 24 VDC internal rails for the rack. Replacing it with a conventional 24 VDC power supply is not an equivalent substitution.
2. Match the full article number.
The documented R0001 version is 560PSR00 / 1KGT026500R0001. Keep the model and article number together on purchase orders and inspection records.
3. Check the incoming DC voltage.
The 560PSR00 accepts 24–60 VDC. The 560PSU01 and 560PSU02 have different input ranges, so selecting a replacement by physical appearance alone is risky.
4. Calculate rack loading before replacing one supply.
The 44.3 W rating is not a blanket statement that every rack configuration can be powered without calculation. Check the 5 VDC and 24 VDC consumption of the installed communication and I/O hardware.
5. Use matching units for redundancy.
For a redundant arrangement, ABB specifies parallel operation with load sharing and requires power supplies of the same type. Do not assume that mixing different supply models creates an approved redundant pair.
6. Verify the physical unit before installation.
For used or surplus inventory, inspect the nameplate, article number, terminals, LEDs, housing, and connector condition. A catalog match does not establish the electrical condition of an individual unit.
FAQ
What is ABB 560PSR00?
The 560PSR00 is an rack power supply unit. The R0001 version is identified by ABB article number 1KGT026500R0001 and is designed to provide 5 VDC and 24 VDC to supported subracks.
What input voltage does 560PSR00 require?
The R0001 version accepts 24–60 VDC, with a documented tolerance of -20% to +15%.
What outputs does the 560PSR00 provide?
It generates 5 VDC and 24 VDC. The RTU500 documentation lists maximum output currents of approximately 5.5 A on the 5 V rail and 0.7 A on the 24 V rail, within the overall output-power limitation.
Can two 560PSR00 units be used for redundancy?
Yes. ABB documents parallel operation for redundant configurations, including controlled load sharing and monitoring. The supplies should be the same type for the redundant arrangement.
Which racks use 560PSR00?
The documented compatible subracks are 560MPR03 and 560SFR02.
What is the output power of 560PSR00?
The RTU500 rack documentation specifies approximately 44.3 W output power for the 560PSR00. The actual available capacity still needs to be checked against the installed rack load.
What should procurement verify before ordering?
Verify 560PSR00 / 1KGT026500R0001, the required 24–60 VDC input range, rack type, total 5 VDC and 24 VDC load, and whether the installation uses redundant supplies. For existing equipment, also verify the physical condition and nameplate of the actual unit rather than relying solely on a supplier description.
