12.6.3. RELAY BOARD
The CPU issues commands via a series of relays and switches located on a
separate printed circuit assembly, called the relay PCA, to control the function of
key electromechanical devices such as heaters. The relay PCA receives
instructions in the form of digital signals over the I
2
C bus, interprets these digital
instructions and activates its various switches and relays appropriately.
The relay PCA is located in the right-rear quadrant of the analyzer and is
mounted vertically on the backside of the same bracket as the instrument’s DC
power supplies.

CAUTION
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Only those relays actually required by the configuration of the T803 are populated.
A protective retainer plate is installed over the AC power relays to keep them securely
seated in their sockets and prevent accidental contact with those sockets that are not
populated see Figure 12-10).
Never remove this retainer while the instrument is plugged in and turned on. The contacts of
the AC relay sockets beneath the shield carry high AC voltages even when no relays are
present.
