High power server supply pinout
« on: October 08, 2016, 02:30:52 am »
I have 2 hp 511778 power supplies rated at 12v 60A (750w).  My goal is parallel them and before I start getting responses that this is overly complex and hard to do I have reasons why I think it will work.  There are 2 of them in each server and they can run together (not just one running and the other on standby for redundancy).  And for two I have read that some supplies have built in current sharing pins.  If I could parallel them could I use 3 or more supplies to get ultra high currents(you can get used ones for 13$)?  The only thing I know about the pinout is how to turn it on and the main output.  If anyone has any experience with these please let me know.  Other hp supplies also have voltage adjustment although most likely not over a large range that could be used for a bench power supply.

Might this PSU be very similar to HP's DPS-600PB?
If so, from this thread the current sharing pins in linked in image below.
Please note that in that thread a series/parallel arrangement is used to get 24 V.
