fig. 13: Derating of the ampacity per channel,
at max. total current (SCS200- RC08-..., 24 VDC)
Fig. 13 shows the derating of the ampacity per load output
at max. total current for 12 VDC.
The ampacity of the single channels can be increased by a reduced total current.
Cable cross sections must be adjusted to the actual current and the operating
temperature conditions. The temperature behaviour of the device improves
with larger cross sections.
