Functional Description

IC3600QSCR1 is a Relay Board developed by GE. It is a part of Mark I and II control system. The Relay PC Board typically accepts input signals from sensors or control systems. These input signals trigger the relay to switch electrical circuits, controlling the system functions. It is designed to control and switch electrical circuits. It typically uses electromagnetic relays to open or close contacts based on input signals, allowing it to manage devices and processes.

System Features

• The design takes into account the typical presence of dust and dirt in such environments. This includes dust composed of various iron compounds, coal, cement, paper, lint, soot, and more, which has been anticipated during the design process.
• To enhance equipment reliability, a meticulous selection of components has been complemented by several design measures. For instance, all circuit traces on printed circuit boards are shielded with a special plastic coating to protect them from environmental factors.
• In order to maintain the equipment's appearance and minimize the impact of adverse environmental conditions, it is advisable to plan the installation in a way that utilizes the cleanest available air. For instance, it's recommended not to draw air directly from processes that generate excessive dust or corrosive by-products, such as blast furnaces, slag pits, pickling lines, paper machines, and similar environments.

Product Attributes

• Temperature: The maximum continuous rating of 40oC is established to ensure the dependable operation of equipment in the context of long-term exposure to the temperatures typically encountered. Additionally, a 10°C safety margin is incorporated into the design to guarantee proper control operation even during occasional high-temperature conditions, such as those lasting for 2-3 days. It is important to note that for sustained high-reliability, it is not recommended to operate the equipment at this temperature for extended periods, such as months, as it is widely recognized that electronic components experience a halving of their operating life for every 10oC increase in long-term average operating temperature.
• Humidity: The acceptable range is 5% to 85% relative humidity, with no condensation.
• Altitude: The equipment is designed to function effectively at altitudes of up to 3500 feet (1066 meters) above sea level.
• Atmosphere: The equipment is designed to operate in the standard atmosphere typically found in control equipment installations within heavy industry settings.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is IC3600QSCR1?
It is a Relay Board developed by GE

Why is it not recommended to operate the equipment at 40°C for extended periods, such as months?
Prolonged operation at 40oC or higher is discouraged because electronic components experience a significant reduction in their operating life for every 10 oC increase in average operating temperature. This can impact the equipment's long-term reliability.

What is the acceptable range for relative humidity when operating this equipment?
The acceptable range for relative humidity is from 5 to 85 percentage, and condensation should be avoided. Maintaining humidity within this range helps ensure optimal performance and prevents moisture-related issues.

Up to what altitude can this equipment effectively function?
The equipment is designed to operate effectively at altitudes of up to 3500 feet (1066 meters) above sea level.

What type of atmosphere is this equipment designed to operate in?
This equipment is designed to operate in the standard atmosphere typically found in control equipment installations within heavy industry settings. It is engineered to withstand the environmental conditions commonly encountered in such industrial environments.
