The most credible model-specific repair record identifies PM3328B-6-1-3-E as a Pioneer Magnetics 56 V / 26.8 A power supply.
A separate listing associates PM3328B-6-1-3-E with 80026-524-01.
Procurement note: I would not publish unsupported figures such as a specific efficiency, operating-temperature range, RS-485 interface, or 12 VDC input for this exact unit. Several secondary listings mix specifications from unrelated modules. The electrical nameplate on the actual PM3328B should take precedence.
Application Scenarios & Pain Points
When a high-power DC supply begins drifting, replacing it with a generic unit is rarely a clean solution. Output voltage, current capacity, connector arrangement, protection thresholds, physical dimensions, and transient behavior all matter.
Typical Applications
- Industrial Electronic Equipment: Suitable for equipment requiring a high-current regulated DC supply. The documented 56 V / 26.8 A output places this unit in the higher-power supply category.
- Legacy Automation Systems: A practical replacement candidate where the original Pioneer Magnetics supply remains embedded in an established machine or control cabinet.
- Power Electronics Assemblies: The approximately 1.5 kW output class makes it appropriate for systems with significant DC power demand rather than conventional low-power PLC instrumentation.
- Repair and Maintenance Stock: Keeping a tested spare can be worthwhile when a failed power supply can stop an otherwise healthy machine.
Field Case:
When diagnosing a suspected PM3328B failure, measure the output under load rather than accepting an unloaded voltage reading. A supply that looks normal on a bench can collapse when the downstream equipment draws current—especially when aging capacitors or degraded switching components are involved.

- Pioneer Magnetics PM3398B-6-1-3-E — Related Pioneer Magnetics power-supply model. It belongs to the same general product family but has a different electrical configuration; it should not be assumed interchangeable.
- Pioneer Magnetics PM3398B-6P-1-3P-E — Related power-supply variant with a different configuration designation. Useful as a family reference, not a direct substitute.
- Pioneer Magnetics PM3326B-6-1-2-E — Closely related PM-series supply. Its different model suffix indicates a different configuration, so output and connector compatibility must be confirmed.
- Pioneer Magnetics PM1253AL-6-3-Z03 — Another Pioneer Magnetics power module in the broader catalog. It is a different power architecture and should be treated as an alternative only after electrical and mechanical review.
- Pioneer Magnetics HYRSP-1500-56 — A related Pioneer Magnetics 56 V power-supply product. Its output class makes it worth comparing when sourcing alternatives, but exact current rating, mounting, and interfaces must be matched.
- Pioneer Magnetics PM3328B — Base family designation covering the platform. The complete -6-1-3-E suffix should be retained for procurement because configuration differences can be electrically significant.
The Engineer’s Guide: Field Pitfalls to Avoid
⚠️ Do Not Order From “” Alone
The complete suffix -6-1-3-E matters. Pioneer Magnetics uses detailed configuration designations across its product catalog.
How to avoid it: Match the complete model number and the associated 80026-524-01 identifier where applicable.
⚠️ Verify the Actual Output Before Installation
The strongest model-specific source identifies this unit as 56 V / 26.8 A. Some secondary pages publish completely different electrical figures for the same model, which is a clear procurement warning.
How to avoid it: Photograph the nameplate and verify output voltage/current, input requirements, and connector pinout against the failed unit.
⚠️ Check the Load Before Blaming the Supply
A replacement supply may fail immediately if the downstream load has a short, excessive inrush current, or damaged DC circuitry.
How to avoid it: Isolate the load, verify resistance/continuity where appropriate, inspect DC bus capacitors and wiring, then bring the replacement supply up under controlled conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is Pioneer Magnetics -6-1-3-E?
It is a Pioneer Magnetics industrial power supply, with a model-specific repair record identifying it as a 56 V / 26.8 A unit.
What is the output power of -6-1-3-E?
At the documented 56 VDC and 26.8 A, the theoretical output is approximately 1,501 W, placing it in the 1.5 kW class.
For replacement purposes, use the nameplate rating rather than calculating an assumed continuous rating from secondary listings.
Is 80026-524-01 the same product?
Available records associate 80026-524-01 directly with .
When sourcing the unit, provide both identifiers. That gives the supplier two independent ways to identify the correct assembly.
replace with another 56 V power supply?
Not automatically. The replacement must match:
- Output voltage
- Continuous current
- Peak/inrush capability
- Input voltage and frequency
- Connector and pinout
- Mechanical dimensions
- Cooling requirements
- Protection thresholds
- Isolation requirements
- Control or enable functions, if present
A generic 56 V supply can have the correct nominal voltage and still be electrically unsuitable.
Why are online specifications for this model inconsistent?
Several secondary pages appear to mix information with unrelated industrial-control specifications. One page, for example, lists PLC-style memory and I/O specifications that do not correspond to the power-supply description.
Another source identifies the unit specifically as a 56 V / 26.8 A power supply, which is much more consistent with the product category.
Procurement rule: trust the physical nameplate, original documentation, and electrical test results over generic reseller-generated specification tables.
What should I request when buyingrbished ?
Ask for:
- Actual unit photographs
- Complete marking
- 80026-524-01 identification
- Nameplate photograph
- Input/output test results
- Load-test information
- Connector photographs
- Internal inspection for capacitor leakage or heat damage
- Test date
- Warranty terms
For a 1.5 kW-class supply, a basic “powers on” statement is not sufficient. A meaningful acceptance test should demonstrate regulated output under an appropriate load.
