  • Page 31 Appendix 1: Simple Explanation on the Function of Hysteresis The controller relay activates when the set- SP1 Set to LO SP2 Set to HI RELAY ON point is reached. In the reverse direction, it does not de-activate when the value reaches the set-point.
  • Page 32 Appendix 3: External Relays α The relays on the lpha CON 190 series controller are rated for 6 amps at 110 VAC and can be wired directly to your final control element (provided its power requirements does not exceed this). However, to preserve the life of your controller, or if higher power is needed, it is recommended that you use the controller relay to drive an external relay.
