9. When using remote sense, the total of the load voltage and the load line drops must not exceed the rated output of the power supply. For example, for an XG 6-220 in an application with 1 V of load line loss (0.5 V/Line), the maximum available load voltage would be 6-1=5 V. Note: The unit may operate at higher output voltages than this, but there is no guarantee That the power supply will meet performance specifications. Ultimately, the upper limit of the output voltage will be determined by internal circuitry of the power supply (non-adjustable)

1. Time for the output voltage to recover within 0.05% at its rated output for a load change 10-90% of rated ouput current. Output set point 10-100%

2. Double insulation on primary to secondary isolation barriers. Basic insulation primary to protective earth ground.

3. Current: 0.51 A minimum guaranteed, 0.72 A typically available. Overcurrent protection (each output) is automatic, non-latching. When OCP is tripped the aux voltage folds back and will recover to nominal condition

when the over current condition is removed (typ. <0.2A). To protect external circuits attached to the aux outputs it is recommended that customers use an appropriately rated fuse in series with the aux outputs set point 10-100%
