Power supplies can be paralleled for redundancy to gain higher system availability. Redundant systems require a 
certain amount of extra power to support the load in case one power supply unit fails. The simplest way is to put two 
power supplies in parallel. This is called a 1+1 redundancy. In case one power supply unit fails, the other one is 
automatically able to support the load current without any interruption. Redundant systems for a higher power 
demand are usually built in a N+1 method. E.g. five power supplies, each rated for 0.63A are paralleled to build a 
2.52A redundant system. 
Please note: This simple way to build a redundant system does not cover failures such as an internal short circuit in 
the secondary side of the power supply. In such a case, the defect unit becomes a load for the other power supplies 
and the output voltage can not be maintained any more. This can only be avoided by utilizing decoupling diodes 
which are included in the decoupling module MLY02.100. 
Recommendations for building redundant power systems: 
a) 
Use separate input fuses for each power supply. 
b) 
Monitor the individual power supply units. 
c) 
1+1 Redundancy is allowed up to an ambient temperature of 60°C 
N+1 Redundancy is allowed up to an ambient temperature of 45°C 
d) 
It is desirable to set the output voltages of all units to the same value (± 100mV) or leave it at the factory setting.

Power supplies of the exact same type can be connected in series for higher 
output voltages. It is possible to connect as many units in series as needed, 
providing the sum of the output voltage does not exceed 150Vdc. Voltages 
with a potential above 60Vdc are not SELV any more and can be dangerous. 
Such voltages must be installed with a protection against touching. Earthing of 
the output is required when the sum of the output voltage is above 60Vdc. 
Avoid return voltage (e.g. from a decelerating motor or battery) which is 
applied to the output terminals. Keep an installation clearance of 15mm (left / 
right) between two power supplies and avoid installing the power supplies on 
top of each other. Do not use power supplies in series in mounting 
orientations other than the standard mounting orientation (input terminals on the bottom and output terminals on 
top of the unit). Pay attention that leakage current, EMI, inrush current, harmonics will increase when using multiple 
power supplies.

The unit is designed to supply unlimited inductive loads.  
The max. capacitive load depend on the steady state output current. At 0.6A output current, the output capacity 
should not be larger than 660μF and at 0.3A output current not larger than 2 500μF. In case of larger capacitors, the 
unit can show start-up attempts or start-up problems.
