Failure to conduct a compatibility check per the guidelines listed below may lead to property damage, serious injury,
or death.
Models with no LED
•
Standby Mode Impedance: Equal to the EOL Resistor value (no EOL Resistor equals infinite Ω).
•
Alarm Mode Impedance: Equal to the Series Resistor value (no Series Resistor equals 0Ω).
Models with Factory Provided LED
•
Standby Mode Impedance: Equal to the EOL Resistor value (no EOL Resistor equals infinite Ω).
•
Alarm Mode Impedance: Variable. Based on EOL selected and models rated voltage. Refer to Table 1 below. Models
with a factory provided LED will contain the following installed LED series resistors: 6 V model: 470 Ω, 12 V model:
1 KΩ, 24 V: 1.8 KΩ, and 48 V model: 3.3 KΩ. Table 1 takes this additional impedance into account.

Electrical Specifications
Maximum Input Voltage: 6, 12, 24, or 48 Vdc when LEDs are present; if no LEDs are present, 48 Vdc maximum.
Maximum Input Current: 5 A / 1 A*
*1 A with FS-approved diode installed (See Table 2 on page 23 for the diode part number.)
Before connecting to the power, confirm that the external voltage source and internal EOL/Series resistor values are in
accordance as shown above. The resistance of the resistor modules are marked on the resistor module enclosures. If
the EOL/series resistor value chosen is outside the range above, the hazardous area safety protection of the Ex potted
module is compromised. The maximum power dissipation on the resistor is 1 W. Failure to observe this warning may
lead to property damage, serious injury, or death.
Maximum Ground Wire: 12 AWG / 2.05 mm
