Performance values at 100 percent load
At this point we generate maximum load on the power supply unit. The specifications therefore wont be exceeded.
Following we well see if the voltage drops. Generally there shouldn't be any voltage drops of more than five percent. Otherwise the unit is running havily at it's load limit.
Following you'll find the products in alphabetical order, voltage as well as its deviation from the reference value, noise level
and price. Regarding the noise level we classify within the following subjective values: very silent, silent, audible, loud and
