4.9. 12V (Single) Relay Board (80-008901)
The General Purpose Relay Board allows the inversion of signals and the isolation of circuits. It is
equipped with a single dual pole change-over relay RL1, with completely isolated wiring, accessed
via a 15 way in-line connector.
The relay is provided with polarity protection diodes and diodes for suppressing the transients caused
by "flywheel effect" which can destroy switching transistors or induce spikes on neighbouring circuits.
It’s common use is to amalgamate all the alarm signals into one, volts-free relay contact pair for the
main alarm system.

4.10. 24V Switch-Mode PSU (96-300054)
The power supply unit is a switched-mode type capable of supplying 24V DC at 17.0Amps
continuously. Equipment of this type typically requires approximately 10.0 Amps at 24V DC, so the
PSU will be used conservatively ensuring a long operational lifetime.
No routine maintenance of the PSU is required. If a fault is suspected, then the output voltage from
the power supply may be measured on its output terminals. This is typically set to 24.5V using the
multi-turn potentiometer mounted close to the DC output studs on the PSU PCB.
All the PSUs used in AFL Cell Enhancers are capable of operation from either 110 or 220V nominal
AC supplies. The line voltage is sensed automatically, so no adjustment or link setting is needed by
the operator.
