PRSU Series, Operating Instructions Manual (Revision 1.0)
Recommended Limits
Performance of the PRSU/2, PRSU/4 and PRSU/5 are limited according to the values listed on
Pages 13 and 14 of this manual. In particular, a 200Ω limit on short-circuit (actuated state) series
resistance is required for four-wire, fail-safe applications. The overall series resistance of different
products, cables and layouts can vary greatly. To ensure that a particular application will require
only a single PRSU/2, PRSU/4 or PRSU/5, the following rule-of-thumb guidelines can be used:
