4.2.4.13. 12V Relay Board (20-001601)
The General Purpose Relay Board allows the inversion of signals and the isolation of circuits. It is
equipped with two dual pole change-over relays with completely isolated wiring, accessed via screw
terminals. Both relays are 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. Its common use is to amalgamate all the alarm signals into one, volts-free relay
contact pair for the main alarm system.

4.2.4.14. 24V Relay Board (20-001602)
The General Purpose 24V Relay Board (20-001602) allows the inversion of signals and the isolation
of circuits. It is equipped with two dual pole change-over relays RL1 and RL2, with completely isolated
wiring, accessed via screw terminals. Both relays are 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. Its common use is to amalgamate all the alarm
signals into one, volts-free relay contact pair for the main alarm system.
