BOP 1000W MODELS (3) IN PARALLEL
I. DESCRIPTION.
This kit contains the cables and terminations required to operate three identical 1000 Watt BOP High Power models in parallel, effectively multiplying the output current capacity by three. Only identical models may be configured to operate in parallel.
This kit can be used with all 1000W BOP models that have revision levels as shown in Table 1. Earlier models
!
that have been upgraded to permit multiple unit configurations must include the letter “A” following the revision
number. CAUTION: Failure to install the ground cables supplied can result in damage to the power supply.
Refer to the associated technical manual supplied with the High Power BOP power supply for all instructions
regarding installation and operation of multiple units in parallel.
