Parallel use redundancy
Recommendations for the construction of redundant power supply systems:
- Power supplies that contain a DC-OK signal contact are best suited for the construction of redundant power supply systems.
- Use this DC-OK signal contact to monitor the individual power supplies.
- For the power supplies with EtherCAT (e.g. PS2001-2420-1001) the DC-OK bit can be used for monitoring.
- Use separate grids for each power supply whenever possible.
- It is recommended to set the output voltages of all devices to the same value (± 100 mV) or to leave them at the factory setting.
