Included in the power supply

1) Extra power
The power supply is designed to support loads with higher short-term power requirements without damage or shutdown.
The short-time duration/bonus time is controlled in hardware by an output power manager.
Extra power is available repeatedly. Detailed information can be found in the chapter on Repeated pulse load.
If the power supply is subjected to extra power for longer than shown in the bonus time diagram (see Fig. Bonus time over output power), the maximum output power is automatically reduced to 480 W.
If the power demand is continuously above 480 W and the voltage drops below approx. 20 V (due to the current control mode in case of overload), the device switches off and periodically makes restart attempts. This behavior is referred to as hiccup mode (see description below).
If the voltage is above 20 V, the device supplies current continuously.

2) Hiccup mode
In the event of heavy overload (when the output voltage drops below 20 V), the power supply provides continuous output current for 2 s. The output is then switched off for about 17 seconds before a new switch-on attempt is automatically made. This cycle is repeated as long as the overload persists. After the overload has been rectified, the device will operate normally. See Fig. Short-circuit at output, Hiccup mode, typ.; extra power recovery time
During the pause time, a small open-circuit voltage and a small quiescent current are applied to the output.

3) The discharge current of the output capacitors is not included.

Peak current capability (up to several milliseconds)

The power supply can deliver a peak current that is higher than the specified short-term current. This helps to start current-intensive loads or safely operate downstream circuit breakers.

The additional current is supplied by the built-in output capacitors of the power supply. During this process the capacitors are discharged and cause a voltage drop at the output. Further information can be found in the chapter on Peak current capability.
