Hello Everyone,
My nick is chip and I'm glad to find an informative place to get electrical control answers that's fun! Anyway here goes.
I found a 24VAC 3 pole relay in a piece of our equipment at work and the coil was fried. I suspect someone replaced what was originally a 24VDC relay with the AC relay. And I think I know who did it, not that it matters.
Until he said you can use either a 24V AC or DC relay. Well I'm no engineer... but this is not right and I would like someone to let me know if this is really possible and is this a common practice. What kind of damage can this do?
This equipment is a PLC controlled autoclave and I checked out another unit that was total 24VDC.
Come on guys! Let me know what you think.
