3 Functional description
PSH150 includes a 1 phase SMPS module with PFC and class II wiring. A converter located on the
secondary side allows the supply of a programmable voltage (5 to 55V), with user settable current
limitation. The output is provided with an active ORing circuit that allows the parallel connection for
redundancy of several units without the need of an external redundancy module.
An auxiliary power supply of 12V/100mA is available.
An external INHIBIT signal can be applied for controlling the output status.
A multifunctional display shows the output parameters and 3 keys can be used for programming the
unit. A dry contact (relay) is related to “DC-OK” status.
RS485 and USB ports are available for remote monitoring and setup.

3.1 Main DC output
PSH150 provides a DC output programmable from 5Vdc to 55Vdc with up to 12A output current and a
maximum output power of 150W. The maximum output current varies according to the programmed
output voltage and to the ambient temperature; in Figure 3 and Figure 4 the current and power
derating curves are reported.

The output is short circuit protected; in case of an output short circuit the output is switched off and an
hiccup cycle is started. A “short circuit” alarm code is reported on the display (§3.4.3).

3.2 Auxiliary 12V output
PSH150 is provided with an auxiliary regulated 12V output with up to 100mA current capacity. This
output is short circuit protected. The auxiliary output shares the same ground (negative terminal) with
the main DC output.
3.3 INHIBIT input
An opto-isolated input allows switching off the main DC output. The polarity of the input can be
defined using the “inhibit polarity” (POL) field (§3.4.2). The controlling signal must have a voltage
between 5Vdc and 30Vdc. The auxiliary 12V output is always active and can not been switched off.
3.4 Display interface
The PSH150 is provided with a 3-digits 7-segments LED display used to indicate the status and to
navigate through the configuration menus. During normal operation, the output parameters are
reported (§3.4.1). Alarms and error codes are also reported on the display (§3.4.3)
3.4.1 Normal operation
During normal operation the output voltage, current and power are reported on the display. 2 green
LEDs indicate which measurement is currently shown. Every parameter is visible for 3 seconds, then
the next measurement is shown.
Output voltage measurement:
The display is indicating 24.0V. Note that the “V”
green LED is on, indicating voltage
measurement.
Output current measurement:
The display is indicating 6.0A. Note that the “A”
green LED is on, indicating current
measurement.
Output power measurement:
The display is indicating 144W. Note that both
the “V” and “A” green LEDs are on, indicating
power measurement.

3.4.2 Menu navigation
The layout of the menu is shown in Figure 5. The various options are selected with the 3 keys.

3.4.3 Alarm codes
In case of internal or external faults an error code is reported on the display. When an error code is
reported the “Alarm” red LED blinks at 1Hz rate.
Over-temperature protection
The red LED blinks
The output is switched off
until the internal temperature
decreases to safe values
Short circuit protection
The red LED blinks
The output current is limited
at the programmed value for
5 seconds, then the product
switches off for 10 seconds.
The cycle is repeated until
the short circuit is removed
Internal error, non
recoverable
The red LED blinks
The output is switched off.
This error is caused by an
unrecoverable internal fault
USB power, no mains
available
The product is powered
through USB and the input
mains is not present. The
user can navigate through
the menus. It can be used for
firmware upgrade without the
need of the input mains.
3.5 Parallel connection
Multiple PSH150 can be connected with the output in parallel for power increase and / or redundancy.
In this mode of operation, the field “operating mode” (OP) shall be set to “Parallel” (PA).
The unit integrates an internal ORing circuit allowing paralleling several units for redundancy.
For proper operation the cable length connecting the PSH150 outputs to the load must have the same
length and cross-section. For optimal current sharing it may be necessary to slightly adjust one of the
two devices output voltage until the same current is delivered by the two units. It is recommended to
limit the load power to 80% of the sum of the individual output power of the paralleled units.

3.6 Modbus Interface
PSH150 supports Modbus RTU over RS-485 line or USB (Virtual com port). The following Modbus
table is implemented:
