Overview
Load monitoring for 3RF2 single-phase solid-state switching
devices
Many faults can be quickly detected by monitoring a load circuit
connected to the solid-state switching device, as made possible
with this module. Examples include the failure of load elements
(up to 6 in the basic version or up to 12 in the extended version),
alloyed power semiconductors, a lack of voltage or a break in a
load circuit. A fault is indicated by one or more LEDs and re-
ported to the controller by way of a PLC-compatible output.
The principle of operation is based on permanent monitoring of
the current intensity. This figure is continuously compared with
the reference value stored once during start-up by the simple
press of a button. In order to detect the failure of one of several
loads, the current difference must be 1/6 (in the basic version) or
1/12 (in the extended version) of the reference value. In the event
of a fault, an output is actuated and one or more LEDs indicate
the fault.
■
Application
The device is used for monitoring one or more loads (partial
loads). The function module can only be used in conjunction with
a 3RF21 solid-state relay or a 3RF23 solid-state contactor. The
devices with spring-type connections in the load circuit are not
suitable.
