Application for PM2812 and PM2813 D - 1 APPENDIX D APPLICA TION FOR PM2812 AND PM2813 The followin g application support information is meant for the user who wants to extend the maximum current of the PM2812 or PM2813 Power Supply by parallel connection of channels. P ARALLEL CONNECTION OF OUTPUT CHANNELS When you connect output channels in parall[...]

D - 2 Users Manual This set-up will cause no problem as CH 1 supplies a constant current (CC) of 5A and CH 2 supplies the additional current needed in constant volta g e mode (CV indicator). A problem will arise when the current needed by the load decreases below 5A, for example when the load resistance increases. This is illustrated by fi g ure D.[...]

Application for PM2812 and PM2813 D - 3 The same is valid for two parallel connected Power Supplies when one Power Supply is set to the Standby mode. The Standby mode, like the Disable mode, will try to sink all outputs to 0V . Then the down pro g rammer can also become active when one Power Supply is still in Operate mode. Use Coupled Protection f[...]

D - 4 Users Manual Case 2: Constant V olta g e, Output Current from a fixed minimum value to the maximum The followin g procedure is useful only if you have one channel that can cover the complete ran g e from the minimum to the maximum and if the other channels to g ether can supply the fixed minimum current. Pro g ram the current settin g of the [...]

Application for PM2812 and PM2813 D - 5 The channels 1 and 2 operate in the Constant Current mode, and Channel 3 in the Constant volta g e mode. This example will not work if the current throu g h the load decreases below 10A. Then the current contribution of Channel 3 is reduced to 0A, and either Channel 1 or Channel 2 (or both) will enter the Con[...]
