Honeywell 05701-A-0329 Triple DPCO Relay Card

Product Overview The 05701‑A‑0329 is a triple DPCO relay output card for Honeywell System 57 gas detection control racks. It offers three independent relay channels, each with dual Form C (SPDT) contacts, used to route system alarms, faults, inhibit signals, or general‑purpose switching to external devices (e.g., buzzers, beacons, PLCs). It is a dry‑contact relay module, not a signal input or control card.
