With its compact design, the DURAmax family enables installation in the tightest control cabinets while delivering robust backup power performance.

RICHMOND, Va., Aug. 31, 2026 — Weidmuller USA, a leading provider of smart industrial connectivity and automation products and solutions headquartered in Richmond, Va., has introduced DURAmax DC UPS, offering a secure and reliable 24V uninterruptible power supply for use in a wide range of industrial applications.

This innovative solution supplies PLCs, sensors and other devices with 24V voltage safely and without interruption. In the event of a mains power failure, the DURAmax DC UPS automatically transitions to battery operation, ensuring continuous system availability and preventing unplanned system downtime. With its compact design, the DURAmax family enables installation in the tightest control cabinets while delivering robust backup power performance.

To simplify setup of the DURAmax devices, Weidmuller developed the DURAmax DC UPS Manager software tool, enabling users to easily configure the DC UPS and the battery modules via a USB C interface.

As part of the Weidmuller power management portfolio, the DURAmax family integrates seamlessly with 24 VDC PRO ECO II, PRO MAX and PRO TOP power supplies, as well as the DURA ECO battery modules, to deliver a complete and coordinated power backup ecosystem that helps keep critical automation systems running. 

Key benefits of this DURAmax DC UPS include:

  • High cost efficiency and space-saving design
  • Temperature-compensated charging
  • Intuitive LED bar graph display for fast status and fault diagnosis
  • Built for global cybersecurity compliance and EU CRA readiness
  • Battery cold-start function enables battery-powered startup
  • Fast installation with PUSH IN connection technology

“Thanks to PUSH IN connection technology and clear terminal labeling, users can wire quickly, save time and improve productivity,” said John Froustet, senior director, Product Portfolio Management at Weidmuller USA. “The product’s architecture is designed to support compliance with the European Union’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) from day one, ensuring that our DURAmax DC UPS maximizes the availability of automation systems by protecting against machine downtime and data loss.”
