Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
When the ELAU DRIVE PS-5 is discontinued or unavailable, the following models may serve as functional replacements depending on your system configuration. Always verify electrical and mechanical compatibility before substitution:
- Schneider Electric LMC058C10000 – Direct successor platform (PacDrive LMC)
- ELAU DRIVE PS-4 – Lower-capacity predecessor; verify output current rating
- ELAU MC-4 Power Supply – Compatible within same PacDrive backplane
- Schneider Electric Lexium 32 PSU – Cross-platform option for modernized lines
- Third-party 24 VDC DIN Rail PSU (e.g., Phoenix Contact QUINT) – For standalone retrofit applications
Note: Konmask.com recommends consulting your system documentation or contacting our technical team before substituting any power supply module.
Why Choose the Original ELAU DRIVE PS-5
- ✅ Guaranteed compatibility with ELAU PacDrive and DRIVE series backplanes
- ✅ Factory-tested output stability for motion-critical applications
- ✅ Plug-and-play replacement — no firmware or parameter changes required
- ✅ Supports hot-swap in select ELAU rack configurations
- ✅ Sourced from verified industrial supply channels with traceability
Typical Applications
- Packaging machinery (form-fill-seal, cartoning lines)
- Printing and converting equipment
- Textile and winding machines
- Food & beverage processing lines
- General industrial motion control panels
System Compatibility
The ELAU DRIVE PS-5 is designed for use within the ELAU PacDrive and ELAU DRIVE modular control system families. It is compatible with:
- ELAU MC-4 / MC-6 motion controllers
- ELAU DRIVE C-600 / C-1200 servo drives
- ELAU PacDrive backplane racks (4-slot and 8-slot)
- Schneider Electric PacDrive 3 (with adapter — consult datasheet)
Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to confirm the DRIVE PS-5 is the correct module for your application:
- Step 1 – Identify your rack: Confirm the backplane model number on your existing ELAU rack.
- Step 2 – Check slot position: The PS-5 occupies a dedicated power slot; verify slot assignment in your system layout.
- Step 3 – Verify load current: Sum the current draw of all modules on the rail and confirm the PS-5 output rating is sufficient.
- Step 4 – Input voltage: Confirm your facility supply voltage (100–240 VAC typical) matches the PS-5 input specification.
- Step 5 – Condition preference: Choose New, Certified Refurbished, or Tested Used based on budget and criticality.

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Is the ELAU DRIVE PS-5 still in production?
A: ELAU AG was acquired by Schneider Electric. Some legacy ELAU modules are available as new-old-stock (NOS) or certified refurbished. Contact us for current availability.
Q: Can I use a standard 24 VDC power supply as a replacement?
A: Only in standalone retrofit scenarios. The DRIVE PS-5 integrates with the ELAU backplane bus; a generic PSU cannot replicate this interface without additional engineering.
Q: What is the lead time for the DRIVE PS-5?
A: Typically 3–10 business days for in-stock units. Custom sourcing may take 2–4 weeks. Contact us for real-time stock status.
Q: Do you provide a test report with the unit?
A: Yes. A functional test report is included with all refurbished and tested-used units upon request.
Q: Can Konmask.com help identify the correct replacement if my PS-5 is faulty?
A: Absolutely. Send us your rack model, slot configuration, and current draw requirements and our engineers will recommend the best replacement option.
