  • Page 23 GETTING STARTED By default the bleed resistance is on. For battery Note charging applications, be sure to turn the bleed resistance off as the bleed resistor can discharge the connected battery when the unit is off. Alarms The T3PS power supplies have a number of protection features. When one of the protection alarms is set, the ALM icon on the display will be lit.
  • Page 24 T3PS Series User Manual Considerations The following situations should be taken into consideration when using the power supply. When the power supply switch is first turned on, Inrush current an inrush current is generated. Ensure there is enough power available for the power supply when first turned on, especially if a number of units are turned on at the same time.
  • Page 25 GETTING STARTED When the power supply is connected to a Reverse Current: regenerative load such as a transformer or Regenerative load inverter, reverse current will feed back to the power supply. The T3PS power supply cannot absorb reverse current. For loads that create reverse current, connect a resistor in parallel (dummy load) to the power supply to bypass the reverse current.
  • Page 26 T3PS Series User Manual Ensure the reverse withstand voltage of the diode is CAUTION able to withstand 2 times the rated output voltage of the power supply and the forward current capacity can withstand 3 to 10 times the rated output current of the power supply.
  • Page 27 GETTING STARTED Grounding The output terminals of the T3PS power supplies are isolated with respect to the protective grounding terminal. The insulation capacity of the load, the load cables and other connected devices must be taken into consideration when connected to the protective ground or when floating.
  • Page 28 T3PS Series User Manual If the positive or negative terminal is connected to Grounded output the protective ground terminal, the insulation terminal capacity needed for the load and load cables is greatly reduced. The insulation capacity only needs to be greater than the maximum output voltage of the power supply with respect to ground.
