The YR20.246 is a redundancy module for building
redundant power supply systems. It is equipped with
two input channels and one output. The two inputs are
decoupled by MOSFET technology.
The device is equipped with an automated load sharing
feature, which can compensate a small voltage
imbalance between the power supplies connected to
the inputs in order to achieve an even current share. It
also monitors the function of the redundancy circuitry
and provides a signal in case of a failure or a high
output current, which could prevent redundancy if one
power supply fails. If this feature is not required the
YR20.242 is available.
The redundancy utilizes MOSFETs instead of diodes for
the decoupling of the two input channels. This reduces
the heat generation and the voltage drop between
input and output. The redundancy module does not
require an additional auxiliary voltage.
Due to the low power losses, the unit is very slender and
only requires 32mm width on the DIN-rail. Large
connection terminals allow for a safe and fast
installation. The large international approval package
makes this unit suitable for nearly every application.

1. INTENDED USE
This redundancy module is designed for installation in an enclosure and is intended for the general use such as in
industrial control, office, communication, and instrumentation equipment.
This redundancy module can be used with any type of power supply as long as the maximum output current ratings
are not exceeded. It is suitable for power supplies with constant current overload behavior as well as any kind of
“Hiccup” overload behavior.
Do not use this redundancy module in equipment, where malfunction may cause severe personal injury or threaten
human life.
2. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
This device may only be installed and put into operation by qualified personnel.
This device does not contain serviceable parts.
If damage or malfunction should occur during installation or operation, immediately turn power off and send unit to
the factory for inspection.
To ensure a proper load share function ensure that the wiring between the two power supplies and the redundancy
module is identical.
Mount the unit on a DIN-rail so that the input terminals are located on the bottom and the output terminals on the
top of the unit. For other mounting orientations see de-rating requirements of chapter 21.6 in this document.
This device is designed for convection cooling and does not require an external fan. Do not obstruct airflow and do
not cover the ventilation grid (e.g. cable conduits) by more than 30%!
Keep the following installation clearances:
40mm on top,
20mm on the bottom,
5mm on the left and right sides are recommended when the device is loaded permanently with more than 50% of the
rated output current. Increase the side clearance to 15mm in case the adjacent device is a heat source (e.g. another
power supply). See chapter 21.4 for other allowed clearances when used with the PULS DIMENSION series in a 1+1
redundant configuration.
Use only power supplies with a negligible output ripple voltage in the low frequency range between 50Hz and 10kHz
when used in marine applications according to the GL regulations.
The input must be powered from a SELV source (according to IEC 60950-1), a PELV source (according to IEC 62477-1) or
an Isolated Secondary Circuit (according to UL 508).
Do not ground or earth the positive output pole which could prevent redundancy in case of a ground failure. Ground
the negative output pole when needed.
WARNING
- Turn power off before working on the device. Protect against inadvertent re-powering.
- Make sure that the wiring is correct by following all local and national codes.
- Do not open, modify or repair the unit.
- Use caution to prevent any foreign objects from entering the housing.
- Do not use in wet locations or in areas where moisture or condensation can be expected.
- Do not touch during power-on, and immediately after power-off. Hot surfaces may cause burns.
Risk of electrical shock, fire, personal injury or death.

5. LIFETIME EXPECTANCY AND MTBF
The redundancy module has two input channels which are completely independent from each other. Each control
circuit, auxiliary voltage source, or other circuitry in the module are designed separately for each input. The dual input
redundancy module can be considered as two single redundancy modules combined together in one housing. The only
common point is the circuit trace that ties the two separate circuits together at the output.
The MTBF figures below are for the entire dual input module. If the MTBF number of only one path is needed, simply
double the value from the table.

*) The Lifetime expectancy shown in the table indicates the minimum operating hours (service life) and is determined by the lifetime
expectancy of the built-in electrolytic capacitors. Lifetime expectancy is specified in operational hours and is calculated according to the
capacitor’s manufacturer specification. The manufacturer of the electrolytic capacitors only guarantees a maximum life of up to 15 years
(131 400h). Any number exceeding this value is a calculated theoretical lifetime which can be used to compare devices.
**) MTBF stands for Mean Time Between Failure, which is calculated according to statistical device failures, and indicates reliability of a
device. It is the statistical representation of the likelihood of a unit to fail and does not necessarily represent the life of a product.
The MTBF figure is a statistical representation of the likelihood of a device to fail. A MTBF figure of e.g. 1 000 000h means that
statistically one unit will fail every 100 hours if 10 000 units are installed in the field. However, it can not be determined if the failed unit
has been running for 50 000h or only for 100h.

E Selector for output current warning threshold
If the output current increases, e. g. due to additionally loads, and exceeds the
nominal current of one power supply unit, redundancy is no longer guaranteed.
To avoid the loss in redundancy, the output current is monitored and is
reported through LEDs and relay contacts when exceeding the predefined
value.
- Set the selector to 5A in combination with two 5A power supplies (1+1 red.)
- Set the selector to 10A in combination with two 10A power supplies (1+1 red.)
- Set the selector to 20A for n+1 redundant systems. With this setting,
redundancy cannot be checked by the redundancy module any more.
Exceeding the current by less than 2 seconds will be ignored.

11. AUTOMATED LOAD SHARING
Drawing even current from both power supplies in a redundancy application can provide a longer service life of the
redundant power supply system. An evenly shared current can avoid that one of the two units is getting much hotter
than the other, which reduces the lifetime of the power supply system. The YR20.246 redundancy module is equipped
with an automated load share feature, which can compensate a certain voltage unbalance between the two power
supplies connected to the inputs.
However, to reduce the losses of the active circuit in the redundancy module, the individual output voltages shall be
set as close as possible. The three LEDs on the front of the unit help to indicate if adjustment is necessary.

21. APPLICATION NOTES
21.1. USING ONLY ONE INPUT INSTEAD OF BOTH CHANNELS
Using only one input instead of both is allowed up to a nominal input current of 12A (at max. +45°C ambient
temperature) or 10A (at max. +70°C ambient temperature).
The load share feature is disabled in cases one input voltage is not present or the level of the input voltage is below a
certain value. The MOSFET will be on in such cases.
However, it is always recommended to connect both input path in parallel for reduced power losses and voltage drop.
When this is not possible, the following values can be expected:
Voltage drop, input to output typ. 0.15V
Power losses typ.
2.6W
Standby power losses typ. 1.1W

21.2. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR REDUNDANCY
Recommendations for the configuration of redundant power systems:
- Use separate input fuses for each power supply.
- Use three-phase power supplies to gain functional safety if one phase fails.
- When single-phase power supplies are utilized connect them to different phases or mains circuits if possible.
- Set the power supply in “Parallel-Use” mode if this feature is available
- It is desirable to set the output voltages of all power supplies to the same value.
21.3. INDUCTIVE AND CAPACITIVE LOADS
The unit is designed to supply any kind of loads, including unlimited capacitive and inductive loads.
21.4. SIDEWARDS INSTALLATION CLEARANCES
The minimum clearance recommendations are defined in chapter 2.
Normally, the following installation clearance are recommended: 40mm on top, 20mm on the bottom, 5mm on the
left and right sides when the device is loaded permanently with more than 50% of the rated power. Increase this
clearance to 15mm in case the adjacent device is a heat source (e.g. another
power supply).
The clearance between the power supplies and the redundancy module can be
reduced to zero under the following conditions:
- 1+1 redundancy application with maximum 12A output current.
- The power supplies are from the PULS DIMENSION series.
- The redundancy module is placed between the two power supplies.
- The output voltage is set to the same level on both power supplies.

21.5. 1+1REDUNDANCY UP TO 10A
1+1 Redundancy up to 10A requires two 10A power supplies and one YR20.246 redundancy module.
Note: Use separate mains systems for each power supply whenever it is possible

21.6. MOUNTING ORIENTATIONS
Mounting orientations other than input terminals on the bottom and output on the top require a reduction in
continuous output power or a limitation in the maximum allowed ambient temperature. The amount of reduction
influences the lifetime expectancy of the power supply. Therefore, two different derating curves for continuous
operation can be found below:
Curve A1 Recommended output current.
Curve A2 Max allowed output current (results in approximately half the lifetime expectancy of A1).
