The

...

FAC-2100

...

can

...

be

...

special

...

ordered

...

with

...

an

...

enhanced

...

relay

...

board

...

that

...

can

...

include

...

up

...

to

...

three

...

DC

...

or

...

AC

...

solid-state

...

form

...

A

...

relays

...

(see

...

figure

...

above.)

...

Each

...

solid-state

...

relay

...

is

...

capable

...

of

...

switching

...

3

...

amp

...

resistive

...

or

...

inductive

...

loads

...

at

...

60V

...

DC

...

or

...

140

...

V

...

AC.

...


Each

...

solid-state

...

relay

...

must

...

be

...

individually

...

specified

...

as

...

AC

...

or

...

DC

...

when

...

ordered.

...

You

...

may

...

not

...

use

...

the

...

AC

...

type

...

to

...

switch

...

DC

...

signals

...

and

...

visa-versa.

...


Do

...

not

...

use

...

the

...

solid-state

...

modules

...

to

...

switch

...

low

...

currents

...

as

...

they

...

typically

...

have

...

a

...

4-mA

...

leakage

...

current

...

in

...

the

...

off

...

state.

...

Use

...

a

...

mechanical

...

relay

...

if

...

it

...

is

...

necessary

...

to

...

switch

...

low

...

current.

...


Keep

...

in

...

mind

...

that

...

DC

...

solid-state

...

relays

...

have

...

defined

...

polarities

...

the

...

terminals

...

labeled

...

common

...

(COMM)

...

are

...

positive

...

and

...

those

...

labeled

...

normally

...

open

...

(N/O)

...

are

...

negative.

...


Also,

...

note

...

that

...

the

...

AC

...

solid-state

...

modules

...

are

...

zero

...

crossing

...

turn-on.

...

This

...

means

...

that

...

the

...

modules

...

will

...

not

...

energize

...

until

...

the

...

input

...

waveform

...

crosses

...

zero

...

volts.

...

This

...

translates

...

to

...

a

...

maximum

...

switching

...

delay

...

of

...

approximately

...

half

...

the

...

AC

...

line

...

frequency.

On FAC-2100

...

units

...

equipped

...

with

...

miniature

...

cylindrical

...

connectors,

...

some

...

relay

...

outputs

...

may

...

have

...

additional

...

current

...

carrying

...

limitations

...

imposed

...

by

...

the

...

connector

...

pin.
