Frequently Asked Questions
- What types of devices can I control with this module?
It can control motors, contactors, heaters, solenoids, and any AC devices operating within the voltage and current ratings. - How does the electronic fusing work?
Each common group has electronic fuses that protect the outputs from overcurrent conditions while allowing fault monitoring. - What happens when a fuse blows?
The affected output group stops working, but the other group continues operating. The fault can be monitored through the processor. - Can I mix 120V and 240V devices on the same module?
No, all outputs on the same common must operate at the same voltage level. - How do I replace a blown fuse?
Use the recommended SAN-O HQ 6.3A fuse from the 1746-F9 replacement kit to maintain safety certifications.
