Continuous power operating boundaries
The general operating boundaries for Model 2601B/2602B/2604B continuous power output are
shown in the following figure (for derating factors, see the
(on page 4-4)
described earlier in this section). In this drawing, the current (600 mA, 1 A, 2.2 A, and 3 A) and the
voltage (6 V and 40 V) magnitudes are nominal values. Also note that the boundaries are not drawn
to scale.

The general operating boundaries for Model 2611B/2612B/2614B/2634B/2635B/2636B continuous
power output are shown in the following figure (for derating factors, see the
(on page 4-4) described earlier in this section). In this drawing, the current (100 mA and 1.5 A) and
voltage (20 V and 200 V) magnitudes are nominal values. Also note that the boundaries are not
drawn to scale.
