Signet 8059 External Relay Modules
Description
Signet 8059 External Relay Modules
supplement the output capabilities of
certain host instruments such as the
Signet 8900 Multi-Parameter Controller. AC-powered versions accept universal line voltage, and also provide 24
VDC output that can be used to power
the host instrument or other device(s).
System Overview
The host instrument controls relay
operation by way of a single digital
3
L) connection. The compact plastic
(S
housing is DIN rail mountable and
includes LED annunciators for each
relay, plus one each for power-on and
data transfer or test mode.
Features
• External relays
controlled by host
instrument
• AC and DC powered
versions
• DC power output (AC
versions)
• DC power passthrough (DC versions) to simplify
wiring
3
• Digital (S
through to simplify
sensor wiring
• Red LED annunciators for each relay
• Green LED indicators for power and
digitial (S
transfer
• Relays may be
tested locally, and
also via the host
instrument

Ordering Information:
1) Use an RC filter kit to
protect relays from
voltage spikes
2) DIN railing and clips
are available for
mounting a relay
module.
3) The -AC version will
supply enough voltage to power the 8900
when using the 12-24
VDC power module.
