.... Have you ever been able to trigger an overload condition ...
No one can answer that question, nor will having FULL waveform data from the Meanwell. The reason is -
how and
when the Meanwell reacts to an "overload" depends on the
duration and
intensity of the over-current (short cct) pulse !! So, a 1mS pulse of say even 200-300% overload
may get through without any reaction, but a 1.5mS pulse of the same overload value
may trigger an immediate foldback and shutdown. We (you) have no way of knowing the supercap inrush current profile in ALL conditions ie cold / dead flat / under load etc
You can greatly minimize this by inserting a small series resistance, as others have advised, but again - how small and how much effect will it have?
drummerd is saying - you can't blow up the P/Supply, but will that 60A inrush pulse trigger the Meanwell's protection circuits? If it does and you don't mind pressing reset a second time, it should work. The only way to find out for sure is to hook the 2 up and run actual tests. Make sure you account for worst case - ie Supercaps totally dead and cold.
