Hold-up Time
The Q Series converters provide virtually no hold-up time. If
hold-up time is required, use external output capacitors or
decoupling diodes together with input capacitors of adequate
size.
Formula for additional external input capacitor:
Ci ext = –η–2–••–(P–Vo–ti–•2–t–h––•V–1i –m0–i0n–2)–
where as:
Ci ext = external input capacitance [mF]
Po = output power [W]
η = efficiency [%]
t h = hold-up time [ms]
Vi min = minimum input voltage [V]
Vti = threshold level [V]
Thermal Considerations and Protection
If a converter is located upright in quasi-stationary air
(convection cooling) at the indicated maximum ambient
temperature TA max (see table Temperature specifications), and
is operated at its nominal input voltage and output power, the
temperature TC measured at the Measuring point of case
temperature (see Mechanical Data) will approach TC max after
the warm-up phase. However, the relationship between TA
and TC depends heavily on the operating conditions and the
integration into a system. The thermal conditions are
influenced by input voltage, output current, airflow, and
temperature of surrounding components and surfaces. TA max
is therefore, contrary to TC max, an indicative value only.
Caution: The installer must ensure that under all operating
conditions TC remains within the limits stated in the table
Temperature specifications.
Note: Sufficient forced cooling or an additional heat sink improves
the reliability or allows TA to be higher than TA max, as long as TC max
is not exceeded. In rack systems without proper thermal
management, the converters must not be packed too densely! In
such cases the use of a 5 or 6 TE front panel is recommended.
A temperature sensor generates an internal inhibit signal,
which disables the outputs, if the case temperature exceeds
TC max. The outputs are automatically re-enabled when the
temperature drops below this limit. This feature is not fitted to
48Q models.
Operating BQ – GQ models with output current beyond Io nom
requires a reduction of the ambient temperature TA to 50 °C or
forced cooling. When TC max is exceeded, the converter runs
into its thermal protection and switches off; see fig. 17a.
Note: According to the railway standard EN 50155, the con-
verters BQ – GQ can be operated with Po nom continously at TA =
70 °C, and then for 10 min at TA = 85 °C without shutdown.
