OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION (OVP)
The OVP circuit protects the load in the event of a remote or local programming error or a power su
ply failure. The protection circuit monitors the volt
age at the power supply sense points and thus pr
vides the protection level at the load. Upon detection of an Over Voltage condition, the power supply
The OVP can be set when the power supply output is Enabled (
On) or Disabled (Off). To set the OVP
level, press the OVP/UVL button, so that the CURRENT meter shows “OUP”. The VOLTAGE meter
shows the OVP setting level. Rotate the VOLTAGE encoder knob to adjust the OVP level. The display
will show “OUP” and the settin
g value for 5 seconds after the adjustment has been co
then will return to its previous state.
The minimum setting level is approximately 105% of the
set Output Voltage, or the value in Table 7
higher. The maximum setting level is shown in Table 5
To preview the OVP setting, press the OVP/UVL pushbu
RRENT display will show “OUP”. At this
time, the VOLTAGE display will show the OVP setting. A
ter 5 seconds, the display will return to its previous state.
Activated OVP protection indications
When the OVP is activated the power supply output shuts down. The VOLTAGE display shows “OUP”
and the ALARM LED blinks.
Resetting the OVP circuit
To reset the OVP circuit after it activates:
er supply Output Voltage setting below the OVP set level.
Ensure that the load and the sense wiring are connected properly.
There are four methods to reset the OVP circuit.
Turn the power supply Off using the AC On/Off switc
h, wait until the front panel display
turns Off, then turn the power supply On using the AC On/Off switch.
Turn the power supply output Off and then On using the SO control (refer to Section 5.7).
In this method the power supply should be set to Auto
Send an OUT 1command via the RS232/RS485 communication port.
