Standard relay 35 x 35 mm with flat blade connectors with up to 4 contacts and up to 16 A with 4 contacts. ## **Relays C7, C9, R7, R9** 22.5 mm series with up to 4 contacts and up to 10 A with 1 or 2 contacts. ## **Interface Relays, C10, C12, C16, C18, R10, R12** Overall width 13 mm with up to 2 electromechanical contacts, or fully electronic switches. ## **Special relays, remanence relays** While "normal" relays are monostable, i.e. they return to the idle state when the excitation is switched off, remanence relays are bistable, i.e. the current switching state is retained irrespective of the excitation. Relays of this type are available in different versions. ## **Solid State Relay SSR** Solid State Relays are suitabe to either switch AC or DC loads up to 6 A. For AC relays a distinction is made between synchronously (zero crossing) and asynchronously switching versions. For switching transformer loads we recommended using asynchronously switching semiconductor switches. For incandescent lamp loads etc. synchronously switching switches are ideal for avoiding high switch-on currents. ## **Basic identification principle (type designation code electromechanical relays)** **==> picture [337 x 36] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10<br>C n(n) - T 1 0 z ( ) X - /...V RF-nnnn<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> |**1.

These pulses can be transmitted down the line associated with the coil and could possibly affect other components. In the case of a realy being operated by such devices as transistors, Triacs, etc; it may be necessary to protect against transients. ## **Transients carried in the line** High voltage surges can be carried in the supply line to the relay coil. These may appear in the form of peaks or bursts and are generated by the connection and disconnection of electric motors, transformers, capacitors etc. Normally a relay is unaffected by these pulses, but if a diode is connected in association with the coil, it must be capable of withstanding an inverse voltage higher than those of the incoming peaks. ## **Protection circuits** A protection circuit must efficiently cope with pulses generated by the coil as well as incoming line surges (surges U1.2/50µs.) ComatReleco Relays are available with integrated protection circuits. **X** LED indication with rectifier. For DC and AC relays up to 250 V **DX** Free-wheeling diode + LED Dampens transients caused by the relay coil on de-energisation. **FX** Polarity + free wheeling diode + LED A diode in series with the coil protects the relay from reverse connection. **BX** Bridge rectifier + LED indication Allows the relay to operate in both AC or DC without any polarity inconvience.

Said peaks can transmit to the coil associated line and other relays or semiconductors can be affected. If Triac, transistor, etc. controls a relay, appropiate steps must be taken to avoid or decrease peaks down to a non risky level. Both Polarity and Free-wheeling diodes (FX), must protect coils, to avoid malfunctions provided DC relays in battery are installed. Making or breaking engines, transformers or contactors in an industrial environmental, may generate high voltage pulses, either isolated or burst, through the main line. The voltage level of those pulse may be high enough to affect the isolation of the coil. **==> picture [147 x 63] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> BX FX<br>A1 A1<br>+<br>A2 A2–<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> **==> picture [91 x 129] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> R<br>A1 A1<br>A2<br>A2<br>X≥24V<br>A1<br>A2<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> **==> picture [27 x 7] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> X≤12V<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> **==> picture [56 x 31] intentionally omitted <==** WoR 2.1 | 9 1 Relays & Contactors ## **Relays General Information** ## **Contacts** There are different contact types. The main distinction is between single contacts and twin contacts. While single contacts are more suitable for higher loads, twin contacts are significantly more reliable at small loads, i.e. < 24V, < 100mA. ## **Contact Material** There is no all-purpose contact! AgNi is used as standard material for a wide range of applications. AgNi contacts with hard gold plating (up to 5µm) are offered for applications in aggressive atmosphere. Relays with gold contacts are approved for relatively high currents (e.g. 6A, 250V), but in practice values of 200mA, 30V should not be exceeded for operation with intact gold plating. Relays with a tungsten pre-contact are available for very high switch-on currents (up to 500A, 2.5ms). For some applications AgNi contacts with gold flashing (0.2µm) are available. The purpose is corrosion protection during storage. Tin oxide is specially appropiated for load with high-inrush current. ## **Minimum load** The minimum load value is a recommended value under normal conditions such as regular switching, no special ambient conditions, etc. Under these conditions reliable switching behaviour can be expected. ## **Contact resistance** Initial values of resistance of contact can vary with the use, load and others conditions. Typical values when the relay is new is about 50mΩ. ## **Contact spacing** Normally all contacts have an air gap between 0.5 … 1.5mm when they are open. They are referred to as µ contacts. According to the Low-Voltage Directive and the associated standards these contacts are not suitable for safe disconnection. For switching of DC loads large contact clearances are beneficial for quenching the arc. See relays with "Cx-Gyz" naming. "G" stands for extended contact gap of 3mm. ## **Switching capacity** The contact switching capacity is the product of switching voltage and switching current. For AC the permitted switching capacity is generally high enough to handle the max. continuous AC-1 current over the whole voltage range. For DC the load limit curve must never be exceeded, because this would lead to a remaining switch-off arc and immediate destruction of the relay. The order of magnitude of the DC switching capacity is a few 100W (DC-1). ## **Drive (coil)** The drive of a relay refers to the coil plus connections. The coil has special characteristics, depending on the rated voltage and the type of current. ## **Coil design** The coil consists of a plastic former (resistant up to about 130°C) and doubly insulated high-purity copper wire, temperature class F. The winding must withstand threshold voltages (EN 61000-4-5) of more than 2000V. This is ensured through forced separation of the start and end of the winding. ## **Coil resistance and other properties** Each coil has an ohmic coil resistance that can be verified with an ohmmeter. The specified coil resistance applies to a temperature of 20°C. The tolerance is ±10%. For AC operation the coil current will not match the ohmic value, because self-inductance plays a dominant role. At 230V this may reach more than 90H. When a relay is switched off, self-inductance results in a self-induced voltage that may affect the switching source (destruction of transistors, EMC problems). ## **Drive voltages** A distinction is made between the standardised voltages according to EN 60947 as guaranteed values, and typical values that can be expected with a high degree of probability. ## **Pick-up voltage, Release voltage** The pick-up voltage is the voltage at which the relay engages safely. For DC the typical trip voltage is approx. 65% of Unom, for AC approx. 75%. The release voltage, on the other hand, is approx. 25% or 60% respectively. For DC these voltages are strongly temperature-dependent, according to the temperature coefficient of Cu (See curve 1). This is not the case for AC, where the inductive resistance is the controlling factor, which is practically constant over a wide temperature range. With AC, in a certain undervoltage range the relay may hum, and the armature may flutter. This voltage range must be avoided. ## **Operating voltage range** Unless specified otherwise, the following characteristic curve applies for the operating voltage range (See curve 2). The upper limit of the coil voltage is determined by self-heating and the ambient temperature. Self-heating through contacts under high load must not be underestimated. It may be higher than the power dissipation in the drive. During intermittent operation significantly higher overvoltages temporary may occur for short periods. If in doubt please consult our specialists. **==> picture [158 x 106] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> UN<br> 1.7<br> 1.5 2<br> 1.3<br> 1.1<br>[0.9] 1<br> 0.7<br> 0.5<br>All -20 -5 10 25 40 55 70 T ºC<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> ## **General design** ComatReleco Relays are made from high-quality, carefully selected materials. They comply with the latest environmental regulations such as RohS. Their meticulous design makes them particularly suitable for industrial applications and installation engineering. They are particularly service-friendly through robust terminals, mechanical position indicating device a standard, manual operation, dynamic, permanent characteristics. Colour coding for manual operation as a function of the coil voltage is another useful feature. Further options such as different coil connections, free-wheeling diode, LED display, bridge rectifier for AC/DC drives etc., and short-term availability of special versions for practically any drive voltage up to DC 220V /AC 400V leave nothing to be desired. Apart from a few special versions, in general, ComatReleco industrial relays feature manual operation (push/pull) and a mechanical position indicating device. For safety reasons, manual operation may be replaced with a black button, if required. ## **Coil connections** Different coil connections can be integrated in the relay as an option. For DC a cost-effective free-wheeling diode is available. Please note that the stated release times are generally specified without the coil connection. While an additional LED status indicator has practically no effect, a free-wheeling diode (D) will lead to an increase in release time by a factor 2 to 5, or 10ms to 30ms. For AC VDRs or RC elements may be used. In this case resonance effects may have to be considered. VDRs and common RC elements may increase release times by less than 5 ms. 10 | WoR 2.1 1 Relays & Contactors ## **Relays General Information** ## **Standards, conformities** All ComatReleco relays feature the CE mark to indicate that CE standards apply e.g. 2kV surge resistance according to EN 61000-4-5. A significant and not generally available characteristic is that the coils and in particular the connections are able to withstand the voltage spikes that may occur in practice. In addition, the relays feature various technical approvals depending on the respective relay code, and they comply with further standards and guidelines. The main technical approvals include cURus, CCC, Lloyd‘s Register, cULus and EAC.The associated information is provided in the data sheets. ## **Switching classes** EN 60947 defines different switching classes that specify the suitability of contacts for different load types. ## **Example:** AC-1 = Ohmic AC load AC-3 = Motor loads AC-15 = Power contactors, solenoid valves, solenoids DC-1 = Ohmic DC load DC-13 = DC contactors, solenoids UL60947 contains different technical approval criteria such as general purpose, control application etc. Switching classes are defined based on the electrical switching capacity, e.g. B600 etc. **Main technical approvals and standards** ~~ee~~ **Country Technical approval** Authority: CQC _China_ Specification GB14048.5-2001 ~~|e~~ Authority: KORPORATSIA _Russia_ STANDART Specification TP TC 004/2011 _Wordwide /_ Authority: UL Specification _USA / Canada_ C 22.2; UL 60947 ~~ss~~ ¢@)us _United_ Authority: GB Lloyd´s Register of _Kingdom_ Shipping ~~8~~ _Europe /_ Railway EN 50155 _Worldwide_ ~~ee~~ **Utilisation categories according to** EN 60947-4-1/-5-1 ## **Pollution category Cat. 1** Dry, non-conductive contamination without further effect ## **Cat. 2** Occasional conductive contamination, short duration due to moisture condensation ## **Further information and tips** The main operational criteria for relays such as number of cycles, switching frequency, ambient conditions, reliability requirements, load type, switch-on current, load switch-off energy must be clarified in order to ensure reliable operation and long service life. ## **Example** If the number of cycles is expected to exceed several 100.000 operations per year (e.g. clock generators, fast running machines), an electronic solution is no doubt more appropriate, although we also offer solutions for this type of application. In AC applications crosstalk caused by long control leads is often a problem and can result in constant humming of the relay or even inadvertent triggering due to interference. Different harmless loads may lead to very high switchon currents or switch-off energy values, resulting in an unacceptable reduction in service life. Particularly tricky are DC inductive loads. ## **Characteristics of various loads:** ## **Heating circuits** No higher switch-on currents, no higher switch-off loads. ## **Incandescent lamps, halogen lamps** Switch-on currents during a few ms in the range 10 … 18 x rated. Switch-off at rated load. **1** ## **Low-energy lamps** ## **Choosing the right Socket** For plug-in industry, interface, time, and monitoring relays, we offer sockets with the corresponding pin configuration and various layouts for the terminal connectors. For easy identification, you'll find those symbol referring to the matching socket. ## **Cat. 3** Dry, non-conductive and conductive contamination with moisture condensation ## **Cat. 4** Contamination with persistent conductivity through conductive dust, rain **Protection class IP** according to EN 60529 and other standards. Industrial relays and their sockets can be classified as follows: Socket IP20: Contact safety Relay IP40/IP50: not watertight, but protected against ingress of coarse contaminants. Very high, but very short switch-on currents due to built-in decoupling capacitors. Contacts have a tendency to fuse. ## **Transformers, AC contactors** Switching on during zero-transition may lead to switch-on currents of 8 … 15 x rated values. High inductive switch-off energy is possible. The load must be connected. ## **Electrical Distributor DIN 45mm** All devices with a housing fitting in an electrical distributor with a front of 45mm are marked with the following symbol.
