INSTALLATION
GENERAL
When not shipped as part of a control or switchgear panel, the relays are shipped in sturdy cartons to
prevent damage during transit. Immediately upon receipt of a relay, check the model and part number
against the requisition and packing list to see that they agree. Visually inspect the relay for damage that
may have occurred during shipment. If there is evidence of damage, immediately file a claim with the
carrier and notify the Regional Sales Office, or contact the Sales Representative at Basler Electric,
Highland, Illinois.
Proper operation of the relay may be confirmed by performing the operational test procedure (Page 4-6).
In the event the relay is not to be installed immediately, store the relay in its original shipping carton in a
moisture and dust free environment.
DIELECTRIC TEST
In accordance with IEC 255-5 and ANSI/IEEE C37.90-1989, one-minute dielectric (high potential) tests
may be performed as follows:
All circuits to ground: 2828 Vdc
Input to output circuits: 2000 Vac or 2828 Vdc
Output contacts are surge protected.
MOUNTING
Because the relay is of solid state design, it does not have to be mounted vertically. Any convenient
mounting angle may be chosen. Relay outline dimensions and panel drilling diagrams are shown in
Figures 4-1 through 4-4. Dimensions in parentheses are in millimeters.
