22.12. Mounting Orientations
Mounting orientations other than all terminals on the bottom require a reduction in continuous output power or a
limitation in the maximum allowed ambient temperature. The amount of reduction inuences 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).
