GENERAL DESCRIPTION
J The Gould B350-001, 115 VAC Output
Module converts logic signals used within
the Micro 84” Programmable Controller into
8 independent 115 VAC outputs. Each out-
put is capable of driving relays, pilot lamps,
motor starters, solenoids, or other loads up
to 2.0 amperes. The module uses 8 triac
switches to control loads connected to an
external power source. These switches are
designed to withstand the high surge cur-
rents typical of industrial loads.
Each output is electrically isolated from the
controller by an optical coupler. This
enables the module and controller to with-
stand the severe voltage transients
prevalent in an industrial environment. The
module employs a zero-cross switching
technique. This feature minimizes switching
noise, extends the life of the triacs, and im-
proves system reliability. Both IEEE and
ANSI standards for surge withstand
capability (SWC) tests are fully satisfied.
Ir The output circuits are divided into two
groups of four outputs each. Each group is
driven by a separate voltage source. A neon
lamp connected to each circuit’s field side
displays the ON/OFF status of the output.
This lamp indicates the output’s true state.
The module is housed in a light weight,
durable LEXAN case. A structural
“chimney” within the module provides flow-
through convection cooling and protection
from moisture build-up. Self-contained
mounting brackets eliminate the need for
special I/O housings. A termination connec-
tor shipped with the Micro 84 mainframe is
required when using the module at the ex-
treme right bus location. The module is
also compatible with the B351 Input
Module without the use of additional
components.
User connections are made to a standard
screw terminal strip. This strip is com-
patible with an optional Fanning Strip
(P/N 0212-012) which allows quick module
replacement without disturbing field wiring.
Data bus connections are made with stan-
dard interface connectors. These connec-
tors allow the B350 module to be placed in
any location in the l/O structure without in-
terference to other module operation.
