CAUTIONARY NOTES
The AM416 is not designed to multiplex power. Its intended function is to switch low level analog
signals. Switched current in excess of 30 mA will degrade contacts and render them unsuitable for
future low level analog measurements. Customers who need to switch power are directed to CSI's
A6REL-12 or A21REL-12 relays.
Adjacent AM416 channels may be shorted together for up to 5 ms during the clocking procedure. Users
should consider this when assigning AM416 input channels. Sensors that are capable of sourcing
current should not be assigned input terminals adjacent to sensors that can sink current.
