Problem:
We use AB ML1100's and have an issue with our pressure switch project. We want to use these sweet back-lit stainless AB pressure switches but they send a 24V input signal. The 1100 and the card we use (IA8) are built for 120V input. What should we do? use a cheap relay and wire up 60 of these turds.. or buy new 24V input cards? Has anyone had similar experiences that knows a quick and cheap solution? The other option is a mechanical hand calibrated pressure switch, I don't want to use these because I will most likely have to calibrate them once a year. (no time!)
Keep in mind that there are 60 of these machines.
Current Hardware:
-AB Micrologix 1100
-AB IA8 Input card
