APCI-3504
Intended purpose of the board
1
INTENDED PURPOSE OF THE BOARD
The board
APCI-3504
is the interface between an industrial process and a
personal computer (PC).
The board
APCI-3504
must be inserted in a PC with PCI 5V/32-bit slots,
which is used as electrical equipment for measurement, control and
laboratory use as definedn in the norm IEC 61010-1.
The PC is to comply with the norm IEC61326 for measurement, control and
laboratory use and with the specifications for EMC protection.
Products complying with these specifications bear the CE mark.
Data exchange between the
APCI-3504
board and the peripheral is to occur
through a shielded cable. This cable must be connected to the 15-pin SUB-D
female connector of the
APCI-3504
board.
The board has up to 4 input channels in voltage or current version for
processing analog signals.
An external 24 V supply voltage is necessary to run the output channels.
The
PX 9200
screw terminal board allows to connect the external voltage
supply signals through the
ST3122-A
cable.
The use of the
APCI-3504
board in combination with external screw
terminal or relay boards is to occur in a closed switch cabinet; the
installation is to be effected competently.
The connection with our standard cable
ST3122-A
complies with the
minimum specifications as follows:
-
metallized plastic hoods
-
shielded cable
-
cable shield folded back and firmly screwed to the connector housing.
Uses beyond these specifications are not allowed. The manufacturer is not liable
for any damages which would result from the non-observance of this clause.
The use of the board according to its intended purpose includes observing
all advises given in the
Technical description
and in the
Safety
leaflet.
