Selection Recommendations
-
Choose the DS3800NOTA1A1A if:
-
You need 8 solid-state DC outputs (2A) for main fans.
-
You also need 4 mechanical relay outputs (AC/DC) for auxiliary devices.
-
Your cabinet uses 8 temperature sensors for comprehensive monitoring.
-
You do not require tachometer feedback.
-
You have a climate-controlled environment (0°C to +60°C).
-
You need a direct replacement for an existing DS3800NOTA board.
-
-
Choose the DS3800NOAB if: You need tachometer feedback with the same hybrid outputs.
Critical Precautions
-
ESD Protection: Always wear a grounded wrist strap.
-
DC Polarity (SS): Solid-state outputs are DC-only and polarity-sensitive—reverse polarity destroys the MOSFET.
-
SS Voltage Limit: Do not exceed 48VDC—AC voltages cause catastrophic failure.
-
High-Voltage/Current Hazard (Relay): Relay outputs switch 115VAC/3A—lethal. Use proper insulation.
-
Relay Inductive Derating: For inductive loads, derate from 3A to 2A or use RC snubbers.
-
No Tachometer Inputs: Do not connect speed sensors.
-
No Hot-Swap: Always depower the rack before insertion/removal.
-
Slot Assignment: Install in slots 8–10 (auxiliary I/O).
-
CPU Dependency: If backplane communication is lost, the board defaults to 100% fan speed.
-
Firmware Compatibility: The DS3800NOTA1A1A is compatible with all Mark V CPU firmware versions (v3.x and above). No specific CPU upgrade is needed.
