For horizontal mounting with 23 CFM airflow, the series curve shows 600 W through 50°C, then 450 W at 60°C, 300 W at 70°C and 220 W at 80°C.
For this output-voltage group with natural convection at 115 VAC, the curve shows 400 W through 30°C, then 300 W at 40°C, 270 W at 50°C, 220 W at 60°C and 170 W at 70°C. At 230 VAC it shows 400 W through 40°C, then 300 W at 50°C, 270 W at 60°C and 180 W at 70°C.
Natural-convection curves end at 70°C. Use the model-specific current and power limits together with these series curves, and do not extend a cooling curve beyond its plotted range.
