The plug-in sockets allow field replacement of

are located under the component covers of the
termination assemblies.The termination assembly’s
switched outputs use unsealed, general purpose
relays.These assemblies are capable of providing
mixed voltage and are designed to provide signal
segregation by locating the low voltage inputs an the
opposite side of the terminal assembly from the

available. High voltage discrete outputs are always

factor of 4, for each factor of 2 reduction in current. For an inductive load above stated limits, a snubber diode is required for a dc
inductive load or a MOV (metal oxide varistor) is required for an ac inductive load. Diode current rating must be equal to the maximum
load current and voltage rating equal to 1.3X maximum supply voltage. MOV must be rated for 120 V ac use and current rating must be
equal to maximum load current.
