The illustrated Power Adapter does not specify that it supports USB PD (Power Delivery). Unless you are able to verify that the Power Adapter explicitly supports USB PD, you should be particularly cautious - particularly within your warranty period...


Your iPad Pro supports USB PD (Power Delivery) Fast Charging, but does not support “QC” (Quick Charge) or any other proprietary Fast Charging standards.  Power Delivery mutually negotiates the charging voltage; the source, load and cable are all elements involved in the negotiation protocol. If charging from a 5V USB power source, your iPad will limit its maximum charging to 12W (i.e. 2.4A @5V).


Consider that any damage caused by use of a non-Apple Power Adapter will not be covered by your device warranty.


Your iPad Pro was likely supplied with an Apple 20W USB-C Power Adapter (now standard for many models of iPad). Using a higher wattage Power Adapter will offer little if any additional benefit for iPad charging, but does provide additional power capacity for other connected USB accessories which draw power from the USB bus. For example, a connected USB-C hub will typically draw 10W to run the hub, plus other connected devices (e.g., iPhone, card reader, wired keyboard etc.) will also draw power - their additional power needs being cumulative. As such, your 61W Power adapter has capability to fast-charge your iPad at its maximum supported rate and provide sufficient power for other connected devices.


When using a high-power USB-C Power Adapter, your iPad will rapidly charge to ~80% of its maximum charge capacity - before reducing its charging rate. The charging strategy is designed to protect extend the overall life of the Li-ion battery, while providing rapid charging where it is safe to do so.
