Derating / derating curve Flowing current causes heat, which increases with increasing current intensity.
Electric components have an upper limit temperature which limits their
functionality. Because the temperature inuence on the components is made up
of the ambient temperature and the heat generated by the current, the current
must be reduced as the ambient temperature increases so as not to exceed the
upper limit temperature. The relationship between the prevailing ambient
temperature and the resulting maximum current is shown in the derating curve.
Unless otherwise specied, the derating curves are given for the following
conditions:
Max. rated control voltage
100% duty cycle
Resistive load
Closely packed with several identical products
Horizontally and vertically oriented terminal rail (in an upright cabinet)
No ventilation in the cabinet
No shading by cable conduits
The heating of the product can be increased by the following parameters, which
can lead to heating above the limit temperature and therefore to damage or even
destruction of the product:
Shading, e.g. by cable conduits tted too narrowly, which can lead to heat
accumulation
High switching frequencies, especially when switching high currents or
inductive loads (arcing)
Warmth from other devices mounted nearby
The heating of the product can be reduced by the following parameters:
Reduction of shading by increasing the distances to cable conduits, for
example
Increasing the ventilation in the control cabinet
Increasing the distance to adjacent products
Avoiding the effects of heat from other devices mounted nearby
