Re: (ASCEND) MAX4000 alarm terminals



Thank you Cyril,
	To embellish that a little,
		a)  The contacts are normally open (as you indicated)
		b)   @30 Vdc, the maximum rated load is 1 amp
		c)    @60Vdc,  the maximum rated load is 0.6 amp
		d)    @60Vac,  the maximum rated load is 0.6 amp
	A noted caution states that: "To reduce risk of electric shock, do not
connect the alarm to a device with an output exceeding 30 Vrms, 42.4 Vpeak,
or 60 Vdc."
	Again, as you said, the contacts close in the event of power loss,
hardware failure, or reset.
	I have no experience with, and cannot comment on the Badger unit.
	Regards,
//mike
