CSIP Level 1 Theory of Operation: Functional Description
System Cooling
Bottom-mounted fans provide forced-air cooling:
• Airflow: The system fans (12 V/0.6 A) blow air through the bottom of the unit and exhaust
through the top with sufficient airflow to keep the exhaust air temperature less than +7°C
(+44.6°F) above the intake air. The exhaust cools the system electronics. The system pre-
sents a back pressure of 0.1mm H
2
O and requires at least 100 CFM of airflow that’s uniform
to within 10% and has a worse case temperature gradient of +10°C (+50°F).
• Cooling: If the signal N_PWR ON is active, the fans will always be on with a minimum fan
voltage up to an external temperature of +25°C ±2°C (+77°F ±35.6°F). At higher external
temperatures, the supply will slowly vary the speed of the fans to a maximum fan voltage
when the external temperature is at +35°C ±2°C (+95°F ±35.6°F). If N_PWR ON is off, the
fans will normally be off, and if needed, only turn on at the minimum voltage to cool the PFC
and AC Regeneration.
