NGPS – User’s Manual
42
•
Up to 4 NGPS module can be run in parallel.
E.g. : the user could build an overall 400A 50V system by parallelizing two
NGPS 200A 50V, an overall 600A 50V system by parallelizing three NGPS 200A
50V, an overall 00A 50V system by parallelizing four NGPS 200A 50V.
In order to run a paralleled system, firstly the hardware has to be properly
connected (see below), and secondly one module has to be configured as Master and
all the others as Slaves. Each step is described below.
HARDWARE CONNECTION
1.
Each NGPS has to be properly mounted on a 19’’ rack (N.B. do not
connect AC main at this point);
Use a support bar to provide adequate support for the power
supply.
2.
Connect the output terminals in parallel, i.e. positive with positive
terminals and negative with the negative ones. In order to parallel the
output terminals, bar connections (as in the pictures above) have to be
preferred over cable connections. Below an example of a 2 NGPS and a
4 NGPS system are below reported.
