6、 USED IN UNITS: Relays shall be used as the outputdevice in Units and shall be “off-the-shelf“ commonlyavailable types, for ease of replacement (if design permitssuch replacement). Special types which cannot be purchasedfrom U.S. electrical/electronic distributors shall not beused.3.2.7 CONTACT CONF
7、IGURATION: Units shall not contain any fuses orovercurrent protection in the output circuits. Unit shallutilize isolated contacts for output signals. Unit shallprovide at least one (1) normally open and one (1) normallyclosed contact. Units with (2) normally open and (2) normallyclosed contacts shal
