Official Part Number 787-834
GTIN Standard 4050821085225

Technical Overview

WAGO 787-834 is a single-phase switched-mode DIN-rail power supply from the Pro series with 24 VDC SELV output and 20 A nominal output current. The unit accepts 1 x 100…240 VAC input, with a wider operating range of 1 x 85…264 VAC or 120…300 VDC, and provides 480 W nominal output power. It includes PowerBoost and TopBoost overload capabilities, DC OK relay signaling, standby input, and supports both parallel and series operation. The datasheet shows encapsulated construction for control cabinet use, natural convection cooling when horizontally mounted, IP20 protection, and isolation voltages up to 4.242 kVDC primary-secondary.
