Important User Information

Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of 
electromechanical equipment. 

Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and 

Maintenance of Solid State Controls

 (Publication SGI-1.1 available from your local Rockwell 

Automation sales office or online at http://www.ab.com/manuals/gi) describes some 
important differences between solid state equipment and hard-wired electromechanical 
devices. Because of this difference, and also because of the wide variety of uses for solid 
state equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment must satisfy 
themselves that each intended application of this equipment is acceptable.

In no event will Rockwell Automation, Inc. be responsible or liable for indirect or 
consequential damages resulting from the use or application of this equipment.

The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes.
