5 - 14 Users Manual

To protect the load a

g

ainst excessive currents, the maximum current Iset can be

pro

g

rammed, and the overcurrent protection can be enabled.

To protect the load a

g

ainst excessive volta

g

es, the overvolta

g

e protection level

OVPset can be pro

g

rammed.

LIMITATIONS

The output power is limited by:

• the output specific maximum power Pmax, accordin

g

to the formula:

Iset x Vset <= Pmax

RESTRICTIONS

The output volta

g

e is restricted by:

• the output specific maximum volta

g

e, or

• the overvolta

g

e protection level OVPset

Note: When the output volta

g

e exceeds the overvolta

g

e protection level,

both the output volta

g

e and current are reduced to zero.

The output current is restricted by:

• the output specific maximum current, or

• the pro

g

rammed maximum current level Iset

Note: If the overcurrent protection has been enabled and the output current

exceeds the maximum current (I

set

), the output volta

g

e and current

are reduced to zero.

If the overcurrent protection has been disabled, the output current

will be kept at its maximum (I

set

). The consequence is that the output

volta

g

e will not reach its pro

g

rammed value (V

set

), and the output

channel will

g

o into the CC mode.
