Option Name Option Number Description and Comments
Frequency Range various All options supported
Coil Voltage 105 +5VDC
Highest coil current requirement of all coil voltage
options. May limit system speed because current
capacity limitations. This option draws 600 mA
(except N1810UL 300 mA). Therefore, a maximum of 3 (6)
devices may be switched simultaneously.
115 +15VDC
124 +24VDC (required if using internal power)
