12) Power consumption of EZA 

The EZA11K consumes a certain amount of power even when it is not charging or 

discharging. 

 

 Power consumption of control board 

When the voltage above 120V and below the upper limit of the specifications is applied to 

the high voltage side or low voltage side of the EZA11K, the internal auxiliary power supply 
is activated, the control board (CPU, communication function) is activated.  And the 
communication of via RS-485 and CN is possible.   In this state, about 7 to 10W of power is 
consumed. 

 
This state is called “Waiting” in EZA.  For details, refer to page T-14 of EZA11K Evaluation 

data. 

 

 Power consumption after starting main circuit (main converter) 

When the main circuit of the EZA11K is started, the power of about 100 to 400W is 

consumed even when the output current is 0 A due to the power of the cooling fan and the 
operating power of the main circuit. 

 
For details, refer to page T-12 to T-13 of "EZA11K Evaluation data". After the main 

converter is stopped, the air cooling fan continues to operate for about 3 minutes for cooling 
the internal circuit.
