Industrial Relay Module with the Proven Connection Technology



Weidmüller‘s relay bases are remarkable for their secure connection systems and their ease of use during wiring and installation. Pluggable cross-connection and the extra-quick PUSH IN connection help you to further reduce wiring times. In combination with the established relay technology, our industrial relay modules provide users with excellent reliability and service convenience. The wide range of relay modules provides the right solution for every industrial application.

The RIDER SERIES and its RCI, RCM, RRD and RPW product lines have been successfully integrated into the entire Weidmüller line of relay products. This modular-designed product series formally complies with international standards. A variety of pluggable versions are available with from one to four CO contacts and your choice of connection method.

Our innovative relay bases with PUSH IN connection systems are available for both the RCI/RCL and RCM product lines. PUSH IN technology is safe and easy to use and it allows you to reduce costs with less wiring time. The relay modules are designed for industrial applications and feature sturdy relay pins and industrialstandard pinning. A mechanically operated, stay-down test button is integrated into the design. It enables switching statuses to be simulated during initial commissioning. Additional product features include LED status indicators and free-wheel diodes (DC).

Our relay kits are particularly convenient to use. They include the relay module with status display and the base with ejection lever. The kits are delivered fully assembled and with completely tested
functionality. This saves time during assembly and educes the number of products required.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
