When charging very large capacitor banks requiring many seconds or minutes to reach
end-of-charge, the power supply will display a load fault and go into a 50% duty cycle
protection mode. If this feature is defeated and the power supply is allowed to charge for
an extended period, the peak output power, not the average power, must be used to
determine line current. (See Section 5.7).

The 500A/102A/152A/202A supplies can be used as a constant voltage supply by the
addition of an external filter capacitor. The value of this capacitor will determine the ripple
voltage on the DC output.
The value of this ripple voltage can be expressed as :
V
PK−PK
=
1.4(Po max)
(Vo)(Co)(Fs)
Where : Po max = Maximum outut power in watts
Vo = Output voltage in volts
Co = Total output capacitance in microfarads
Fs = Lowest switching frequency (40KHz)
When operating as a DC supply care must be taken not to draw more than the J/sec rating
of the unit.
Also, if the filter capacitor is inadvertently shorted, it may ring which can damage the
supply (Section 5.2).
