DC 12-28V, 20A, DUAL INPUT REDUNDANCY MODULE
17.3. INDUCTIVE AND CAPACITIVE LOADS
The unit is designed to supply any kind of loads, including unlimited capacitive and inductive loads.
17.4. USE IN A TIGHTLY SEALED ENCLOSURE
When the redundancy module is installed in a tightly sealed enclosure, the temperature inside the enclosure will be
higher than outside. The inside temperature defines the ambient temperature for the redundancy module.
Results from such an installation:
Power supply is placed in the middle of the box, no other heat producer inside the box

17.5. EXAMPLE: REDUNDANCY FOR CONTROLS
The example shows a cost effective solution to get redundant power for a PLC or controller system.
In many cases, two power supplies are used; one for the demanding loads and another one for the controls and
sensitive loads. The power supply for the demanding loads can be used as a redundant source to supply the controls.
Traditional approach:
PS1
PS2
Load
Improved approach:
PLC
