CAUTION
Do not connect power supplies from different
manufacturers in series or in parallel.
5.14.1 Series connection for increased output voltage
In this mode, two units are connected so that their outputs are summed. Set the current limit of each
power supply to the maximum that the load can handle without damage. It is recommended that
diodes be connected in parallel with each unit output to prevent reverse voltage during start up
sequence or in case one of the units shuts down. Each diode should be rated to at least the power
supply rated output voltage and output current. Refer to Fig.5-1 and 5-2 for series operation with local
WARNING
When power supplies are connected in series, and the
load or one of the output terminals is grounded, no point
may be at a greater potential of 60VDC from ground for
models up to 60VDC Rated Output and 600VDC from
ground for models >60VDC Rated Output. When using
RS232/485 or IEEE, refer to the OUTPUT TERMINALS
GROUNDING warning, section 3.9.11.

Fig.5-2: Series connection, remote sensing
The analog programming circuits of this power supply
are referenced to the negative Sense (-S) potential.
Therefore, the circuits used to control each series
connected unit must be separated and floated from
each other.
The Shut-Off and PS_OK circuits are referenced to the
isolated interface common, IF_COM (J1-2,3). The
IF_COM terminals of different units can be connected
to obtain a single control circuit for the power supplies
connected in series.
