YR40.241 12-28V, 40A, DUAL REDUNDANCY MODULE MOSFET REDUNDANCY MODULE For N+1 and 1+1 Redundant Systems Dual Input with Single Output Suitable for all Power Supplies Only 72mV Voltage Drop at 20A Output Current Only 2.15W Loss at 20A and 6.3W at 40A Output Current 160% (65A) Peak Load Capability Reverse Input Polarity Protection Full Power Between -40°C and +70°C Width only 36mm Rugged Metal Housing Easy Wiring: Distribution Terminal for Negative Pole Included 3 Year Warranty GENERAL DESCRIPTION SHORT-FORM DATA The YR40.241 is a redundancy module, which can be used to build 1+1 and N+1 redundant systems. It is equipped with two input channels, which can be connected to power supplies with up to 20A output current and one output, which can carry nominal currents up to 40A. The module is suitable for power supplies with constant current overload behavior as well as any kind of “Hiccup” overload behavior. In addition to the YR40.241, the YR40.242 is also available which is cost-optimized and suitable for all DIMENSION power supplies except the QT20 and QTD20 series. Input voltage Input voltage range Input current The novelty of this redundancy module is the utilization of 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 and is self-sufficient even in case of a short circuit across the output. Due to the low power losses, the unit is very slender and only requires 36mm width on the DIN-rail. Large connection terminals allow for a safe and fast installation with a large international approval package. This unit is suitable for nearly every application.

YR40.241 12-28V, 40A, DUAL REDUNDANCY MODULE 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...
