1
DEFINITION OF APPLICATION
1.1
Intended use
The boards APCI-1032, APCI-1564 and APCI-2032 must be inserted in a PC with PCI
5V/32-bit slots which is used as electrical equipment for measurement, control and
laboratory pursuant to the norm EN 61010-1 (IEC 61010-1). The used personal
computer (PC) must fulfil the requirements of IEC 60950-1 or EN 60950-1 and 55022
or IEC/CISPR 22 and EN 55024 or IEC/CISPR 24.
The use of the boards APCI-1032, APCI-1564 and APCI-2032 in combination with
external screw terminal panels requires correct installation according to IEC 60439-1 or
EN 60439-1 (switch cabinet / switch box).
1.2
Usage restrictions
The boards APCI-1032, APCI-1564 and APCI-2032 must not to be used as safety
related part (SRP).
The boards must not be used for safety related functions, for example for emergency
stop functions.
The boards APCI-1032, APCI-1564 and APCI-2032 must not be used in potentially
explosive atmospheres.
The boards APCI-1032, APCI-1564 and APCI-2032 must not be used as electrical
equipment according to the Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC.
1.3
General description of the board
Data exchange between the APCI-1032, APCI-1564 and APCI-2032 boards and the
peripheral is to occur through a shielded cable. This cable must be connected to the 37-
pin SUB-D male connector of the boards.
The board are used for processing digital signals (See Limit values):
the board APCI-1032 has 32 input channels, in 5 V, 12 V or
-
24 V version
the board APCI-1564 has 32 input channels and 32 output channels
-
in 5 V or 24 V version
the board APCI-2032 has 32 output channels, in 5 V or 24 V version.
-
An external 24 V supply voltage is necessary to run the output channels.
The screw terminal panel PX901 and the relay board PX8500 allow connecting the 24
V supply voltage through a shielded cable
The use of the board APCI-1032, APCI-1564 and APCI-2032 in combination with
external screw terminal panel or relay boards is to occur in a closed switch cabinet.
The installation is to be effected competently. Check the shielding capacity of the PC
housing and of the cable prior to putting the device into operation.
