Important Ordering Information for the PCS OPTO: The Programmable relay outputs (PLS1- 6) are normally a
mechanical (dry contact) relay with 5A contacts. The PCS-OPTO replaces the PLS1-6 with Solid-State relays. The
customer has the choice of replaceable Solid-State outputs PN# 37-045 3.0A @ 24VDC only, OR PN# 37-047 0.5A @
120VAC/DC. The customer must specify which type of output at the time of order. (no difference in cost)
