4.5.5 Inrush current
At the start of the actuator there is an inrush current to the motor that will last between 75 to 150
milliseconds. See below table to determine the inrush current for the control option being used.

Option
EXX, ELX, EXP
XXX, XXP, LXX, LLX, LXP, LLP, CNO
If using an AC powered power supply it must be sized to handle the inrush current (batteries
typically have no problem delivering the inrush current). Also contacts, switches and relays must
be sized appropriately to be able to handle the inrush current.
