ASM SIPLACE 00176198 is a feeder conversion power supply documented in X-machine parts listings for an offline feeder preparation and service environment. Its role is different from an in-machine feeder-bus power module: it belongs to the infrastructure used when feeder work needs to be carried out away from the normal production-machine position.
That distinction matters because offline feeder preparation has a different production purpose from online feeder troubleshooting. Moving setup and verification work into a preparation area allows more feeder work to be completed before the table or feeders are required at the placement machine, reducing the amount of setup activity that must be performed during the production changeover itself.
The most important selection trap is 00141420 PowerConnector X. ASMPT defines the PowerConnector X as an online power supply for feeder preparation or troubleshooting without stopping the placement machine. The 00176198, by contrast, is documented in X-machine parts listings as an offline power supply. A buyer asking only for a “feeder conversion power supply” can therefore receive the wrong type of service solution even though both descriptions sound similar.
SIPLACE 00176198 Power Supply Specifications
| Part Number | 00176198 |
|---|---|
| Product Type | Feeder conversion power supply |
| Operating Scenario | SIPLACE X-Series offline feeder preparation / service environment |
| Common Selection Risk | Confusion with 00141420 SIPLACE PowerConnector X for online feeder preparation and troubleshooting |
| Workflow Value | Supports feeder work away from the normal production-machine feeder position |
| Online Alternative | 00141420 SIPLACE PowerConnector X |
| Core Matching Point | Existing unit label, feeder type, connector configuration and required online or offline service workflow |
Before replacing or adding this unit, define the workflow first. If the objective is to prepare or service feeders in an offline area before they are needed on the placement machine, 00176198 is the relevant power-supply reference to investigate. If the requirement is to power and troubleshoot a feeder at the production line while the machine continues running, compare the 00141420 PowerConnector X instead.
This workflow check is more useful than selecting from the generic term “feeder conversion power supply.” It prevents an online service accessory from being purchased for an offline preparation requirement, or an offline setup component from being specified when the maintenance team actually needs line-side troubleshooting support.
00176198 is normally available for feeder-service projects, with confirmed stock orders typically dispatched within 24–48 hours. If an offline preparation or changeover project is time-sensitive, urgent requirements can be prioritized. Send the existing unit label, feeder type, connector photos and a short description of how the feeder will be prepared or serviced; we can verify whether the purchasing scope points to 00176198 or the online PowerConnector X before quotation. A formal specification confirmation sheet can be provided for engineering and procurement approval once the workflow and configuration are confirmed.
