Figure 2.16 Wiring Digital Outputs
Alarm Output Connections
Typical alarm outputs use external optically isolated solid-
state relays (SSRs). The SSRs use a 3 to 32Vdc input for
control, and you can size them to switch up to 100A at
480Vac. For larger currents, you can use SCR power
controls or optically isolated SSRs to drive contactors.
NOTE!
Alarm outputs are SINK outputs. They are Low
when the output is On. Connect them to the nega-
tive side of Solid State Relays.
The figure below shows sample alarm output connections.
