Common Technical Questions
Q: Can this power supply operate on single-phase input?
A: The 1606-XL960E-3 requires three-phase input. For single-phase applications, consider the 1606-XL960EE model with equivalent output specifications.
Q: What's the recommended circuit breaker rating?
A: Install a 10A Type C or D curve breaker on the input side. Consult Publication 1606-UM001 for detailed branch circuit protection guidelines.
Q: Does it support parallel operation for higher current?
A: Yes, up to four units can be paralleled using external ORing diodes (1606-XL-DIODE) to achieve 160A total output capacity.
Q: What's the inrush current specification?
A: Typical inrush is <30A for <5ms at 480VAC input, well within standard industrial circuit breaker tolerances.
