Load with accumulated energy
Connecting a load with accumulated energy, such as a battery, to the PAT-TM/TMX series
may cause current to flow from the load to the internal circuit of the PAT-TM/TMX series. This
current may damage the PAT-TM/TMX series or reduce the life of the battery.
For this type of loads, connect a reverse-current-prevention diode (D
TM/TMX series and the load in series as shown in Fig3-4.
This cannot be used in conjunction with remote sensing.
PAT-TM/TMX series
Remedy against load with accumulated energy
Fig3-4
• Use a reverse-current-prevention diode (D
Reverse voltage withstand capacity is at least twice the rated output voltage of the PAT-TM/
TMX series.
Forward current capacity is three to ten times the rated output current of the PAT-TM/TMX
series.
A diode with small loss.
• Be sure to take into account the heat generated by reverse-current-prevention diode D
Reverse-current-prevention diode D
To prevent the possibility of fire.
• Use a load cable with sufficient current capacity with respect to the rated output current of
the PAT-TM/TMX series.
• The output terminal and its area nearby gets very high temperature, use the cable with
sufficient heat resistance higher than 85 °C of the covering materials.
Possible electric shock.
• Use a load cable with a higher voltage rating than the isolation voltage of the PAT-TM/TMX
series. For the isolation voltage of each model, For details on commands, see the "Product
specifications" on the accompanied CD-ROM.
Current capacity of the load cable
If their current rating exceeds the maximum rated output current, the cable will remain intact
even if the load is short-circuited. Load cables must be rated to carry the maximum rated
output current of the PAT-TM/TMX series.
