W A R N I N G
Potential electrocution hazard. AC mains powered controllers (115 V–230 V) are designed
for relay connections to AC mains circuits (i.e., voltages greater than 16 V-RMS, 22.6 V-
PEAK or 35 VDC).
The wiring compartment is not designed for voltage connections in excess of 250 VAC.
24 VDC powered controllers
W A R N I N G
Potential electrocution hazard. 24 V powered controllers are designed for relay
connections to low voltage circuits (i.e., voltages less than 16 V-RMS, 22.6 V-PEAK or
35 VDC).
The 24 VDC controller relays are designed for the connection to low voltage circuits (i.e., voltages
less than 30 V-RMS, 42.2 V-PEAK or 60 VDC). The wiring compartment is not designed for voltage
connections above these levels.
The relay connector accepts 18–12 AWG wire (as determined by load application). Wire gauge less
than 18 AWG is not recommended. Make sure that the field wiring insulation is rated 80 °C (176 °F)
minimum.
The Normally Open (NO) and Common (COM) relay contacts will be connected when an alarm or
other condition is active. The Normally Closed (NC) and Common relay contacts will be connected
when an alarm or other condition is inactive (unless the Fail Safe is set to Yes) or when power is
removed from the controller.
Most relay connections use either the NO and COM terminals or the NC and COM terminals. The
numbered installation steps show connection to the NO and COM terminals.
