Power Limitation

This table describes the power limitation of the TM3DQ16R / TM3DQ16RG expansion modules depending on the voltage, the type of load, and the number of operations required.

These expansion modules do not support capacitive loads.

Warning_Color.gifWARNING

RELAY OUTPUTS WELDED CLOSED

oAlways protect relay outputs from inductive alternating current load damage using an appropriate external protective circuit or device.

oDo not connect relay outputs to capacitive loads.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
