rush current peak value.

4 1 s max., duty cycle 1% max.
Input Transient Protection
tremely wide input range is required. The EK input range for
110 V batteries has been designed and tested to meet this
requirement.
A suppressor diode or a VDR (depending upon the input
voltage range) together with the input fuse and a symmetri-
cal input filter form an effective protection against high input
transient voltages which typically occur in most installa-
tions, but especially in battery driven mobile applications.
Inrush Current Limitation
The CK, DK, EK modules incorporate an NTC resistor in
the input circuitry which - at initial turn on - reduces the peak
inrush current value by a factor of 5...10 to protect connec-
tors and switching devices from damage. Subsequent
switch-on cycles within short periods will cause an increase
of the peak inrush current value due to the warming-up of
the NTC resistor. See also: E option.
Nominal battery voltages in use are: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72,
110 and 220 V. In most cases each nominal value is speci-
fied in a tolerance of –30%...+25%.
In certain applications, surges according to RIA 12 are
specified in addition to those defined in IEC 571-1. The
power supply must not switch off during these surges and
since their energy can practically not be absorbed an ex-
