Current reduction as a function of the installation altitude and ambient temperature
At installation altitudes above 1000 m the permissible converter output current is reduced.
Figure 6-3 Current reduction as a function of the installation altitude
At installation altitudes above 1000 m, you can compensate the permissible converter output
current to a certain extent using the ambient temperature. The following tables contain the
details.
