3.7 Relay connections
The Shark controller has three internal relays. Relays A and B are for control, the Alarm Relay
can be configured for alarm functions or as an additional control relay.
The connections to the relays are shown in the drawing.
Note that the AC power is internally connected to the
relay terminal plug P4. This is used to provide 120V or
240V AC power for the relay contacts.
Wire Specification: Size and fuse wire accroding to local
electrical code. Wire size not to exceed 14 AWG.

Caution:
The contacts are rated at 10 amp N.O. and 5 amp N.C. Do
not exceed this rating. When switching larger currents, use an
auxillary relay switched by the controller relay to extend the
controller relay life. If the relays are controlling an inductive
load, use appropriate transient suppression at the load.
