All be quiet! power supplys are equipped with numerous safeguard functions. They protect the user as well as the
power supply and the connected components. When one of these safeguards is triggered, then a rebooting or
deactivation of the system is the consequential result. Should this happen, the PC should be immediately checked
for possible errors. In order to systematically detect such errors, please read the chapter „Troubleshooting" on the
following pages. The Dark Power PRO series disposes of the following safety functions:
OVER CURRENT PROTECTION
deactivates
UVP (UNDER VOLTAGE PROTECTION)
This safeguard triggers when the voltage in the circuits falls below a certain limit. In this case, the power supply is
then automatically deactivated.
OVP (OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION)
The over voltage safeguard is triggered when the voltage in the circuits is too high and the power supply deactivates.
SCP (SHORT CIRCUIT FUSE)
The safeguard during a short circuit in the secondary section of the power supply prevents a defect to the power
supply and its components.
