It may also cause the CPU in the equipment to reset, thus losing the PID output levels. It may also damagethe digital output IC circuit, thus not being to energize the digital outputs. If, the IC circuit is damaged, factory repairwill be required.The type of loads that may cause a problem are motor starters, alarm horns, etc. The RFI is generated upon opening ofthe metallic relay contacts.To correct the problem of RFI noise problems:1. Use Solid State Relays (SSR) wherever possible in place of electrical-mechanical relays (E-M relays).2. When using E-M relays, if possible do not mount them in the same panel as the ANAFAZE equipment.3-6
