Peak current capability (up to several milliseconds)
The power supply can deliver a peak current which is higher than the specified short term current. This helps to start
current demanding loads or to safely operate subsequent circuit breakers.
The extra current is supplied by the output capacitors inside the power supply. During this event, the capacitors will be
discharged and causes a voltage dip on the output. Detailed curves can be found in chapter 22.1.

The output voltage is floating and has no ohmic connection to the ground. Type and factory tests are conducted by
the manufacturer. Field tests may be conducted in the field using the appropriate test equipment which applies the
voltage with a slow ramp (2s up and 2s down). Connect all phase-terminals together as well as all output poles before
conducting the test. When testing, set the cut-off current settings to the value in the table below.

To fulfill the PELV requirements according to EN 60204-1 § 6.4.1,
we recommend that either the + pole, the – pole or any other part
of the output circuit shall be connected to the protective earth
system. This helps to avoid situations in which a load starts
unexpectedly or can not be switched off when unnoticed earth
faults occur.

The MLY10.241 is a dual redundancy module, which has two diodes with
a common cathode included. It can be
used for various purposes. The most
popular application is to configure
highly reliable and true redundant
power supply systems. Another
interesting application is the
separation of sensitive loads from nonsensitive loads. This avoids the
distortion of the power quality for the
sensitive loads which can cause
controller failures.

22. APPLICATION NOTES
22.1. PEAK CURRENT CAPABILITY
Solenoids, contactors and pneumatic modules often have a steady state coil and a pick-up coil. The inrush current
demand of the pick-up coil is several times higher than the steady-state current and usually exceeds the nominal
output current. The same situation applies when starting a motor or switching-on a capacitive load.
In many cases, the peak current capability also ensures a safe operation of subsequent circuit breakers. Branch circuits
are often protected with circuit breakers or fuses. In case of a short or an overload in a branch circuit, the fuse needs a
certain amount of over-current to trip or to blow.
Assuming the input voltage is turned on before such an event, the built-in large sized output capacitors inside the
power supply can deliver extra current. Discharging this capacitor causes a voltage dip on the output. The following
two examples show typical voltage dips:
Fig. 22-1 Peak loading with 2x the nominal
current for 50ms, typ.
Peak load 2.6A (resistive load) for 50ms
Output voltage dips from 24V to 16V.
Fig. 22-2 Peak loading with 5x the nominal
current for 5ms, typ.
Peak load 6.5A (resistive load) for 5ms
Output voltage dips from 24V to 10V.
22.2. BACK-FEEDING LOADS
Loads such as decelerating motors and inductors can feed voltage back to the power supply. This feature is also called
return voltage immunity or resistance against Back- E.M.F. (Electro Magnetic Force).
This power supply is resistant and does not show malfunctioning when a load feeds back voltage to the power supply.
It does not matter whether the power supply is on or off.
The maximum allowed feed-back-voltage is 35Vdc. The absorbing energy can be calculated according to the built-in
large sized output capacitor which is specified in chapter 5.

22.3. CHARGING OF BATTERIES
The power supply can be used to charge lead-acid or maintenance free batteries. (Two 12V batteries in series)
Instructions for charging batteries (float charging):
a)
Ensure that the ambient temperature of the power supply is below 45°C
b)
Set output voltage (measured at no load and at the battery end of the cable) very precisely to the end-of-charge
voltage.

c)
Use a 2A circuit breaker (or blocking diode) between the power supply and the battery.
d)
Ensure that the output current of the power supply is below the allowed charging current of the battery.
e)
Use only matched batteries when putting 12V types in series.
f)
The return current to the power supply (battery discharge current) is typical 9mA when the power supply is
switched off (except in case a blocking diode is utilized).
22.4. EXTERNAL INPUT PROTECTION
The unit is tested and approved for branch circuits up to 20A. An external protection is only required, if the supplying
branch has an ampacity greater than this. Check also local codes and local requirements. In some countries local
regulations might apply.
If an external fuse is necessary or utilized, minimum requirements need to be considered to avoid nuisance tripping of
the circuit breaker. A minimum value of 6A B- or 3A C-Characteristic breaker should be used.

22.5. PARALLEL USE TO INCREASE OUTPUT POWER
AC
+
ML30.241 power supplies can be paralleled to increase the output power. This
power supply has no feature included which balances the load current
DC
+
between the power supplies. Usually the power supply with the higher
Unit B
adjusted output voltage draws current until it goes into current limitation. This
Load
AC
means no harm to this power supply as long as the ambient temperature stays
+
below 45°C. The ML30.241 can also be paralleled with other power supplies
from MiniLine series with 24V output voltage. The output voltages of all
DC
power supplies shall be adjusted to the same value (±100mV). A fuse or diode
on the output of each unit is only required if more than three units are connected in parallel. If a fuse (or circuit
breaker) is used, choose one with approximately 150% of the rated output current of one power supply. 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 parallel in mounting orientations other than the standard mounting
orientation (input terminals on the bottom and output terminals on top of the unit). Be aware that leakage current,
EMI, inrush current and harmonics will increase when using multiple power supplies in parallel.

22.6. PARALLEL USE FOR REDUNDANCY
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 an N+1 method.
E.g. five power supplies, each rated for 1.3A are paralleled to build a 5A
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
N
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 redundancy module
MLY10.241.
Recommendations for building redundant power systems:
a)
Use separate input fuses for each power supply.
b)
Use separate mains systems for each power supply whenever it is possible.
c)
Monitor the individual power supply units.
d)
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.
e)
It is desirable to set the output voltages of all units to the same value (± 100mV) or leave it at the factory setting.
22.7. INDUCTIVE AND CAPACITIVE LOADS
The unit is designed to supply any type of load, including unlimited capacitive and inductive loads.
22.8. SERIES OPERATION
Unit A
Power supplies of the exact same type can be connected in series for higher
AC
+
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
DC
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
Unit B
Load
the output is required when the sum of the output voltage is above 60Vdc.
AC
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 /
Earth
right) between two power supplies and avoid installing the power supplies on
DC
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). Be ware that leakage current, EMI, inrush current and harmonics will increase when using multiple
power supplies series.

The power supply can also be used on two-phases of a three-phase-system. A
phase-to-phase connection is allowed as long as the supplying voltage is
below 240V+10%. Use a fuse or a circuit breaker to protect the N input. The N
input is not internally protected and is in this case connected to a hot wire.
Appropriate fuses or circuit breakers are specified in section 22.4.

From a safety standpoint, the unit is internally designed according to the requirements for Protection Class 1 and 2.
Please contact PULS if you do not plan to use the PE terminal. A different marking of the front foil is then required.
Grounding of the input is beneficial for a high EMI immunity: Symmetrical spikes or fast transients on the input side
can be conducted directly to earth by the built-in filter capacitors. The magnitude of such spikes or fast transients on
the output side caused by the input is much smaller compared to not connecting this terminal to ground.

22.11. USE IN A TIGHTLY SEALED ENCLOSURE
When the power supply is installed in a tightly sealed enclosure, the temperature inside the enclosure will be higher
than outside. In such situations, the inside temperature defines the ambient temperature for the power supply.
The following measurement results can be used as a reference to estimate the temperature rise inside the enclosure.
The power supply is placed in the middle of the box; no other heat producing items are inside the box.

22.12. MOUNTING ORIENTATIONS
Mounting orientations other than input terminals on the bottom and output on the top require a reduction in
continuous output power or a limitation in the maximum allowed ambient temperature. The amount of reduction
influences the lifetime expectancy of the power supply. Therefore, two different derating curves for continuous
operation can be found below:
Curve A1
Curve A2
Recommended output current.
Max allowed output current (results in approximately half the lifetime expectancy of A1).
