SECTION 12
INSTALLATION
GENERAL
BE1-CDS240 Current Differential Systems are delivered with an instruction manual and BESTCOMS
software in a sturdy carton to prevent shipping damage. Upon receipt of the relay, check the model and
style number against the requisition and packaging list for agreement. If there is evidence of shipping
damage, file a claim with the carrier, and notify the Basler Electric Regional Sales Office, your sales
representative, or a sales representative at Basler Electric, Highland, Illinois.
If the BE1-CDS240 is not installed immediately, store it in the original shipping package in a moisture and
dust free environment.
ATTENTION
The BE1-CDS240 relays with mid- or high-range power supplies are delivered
with the input jumpers set to the HIGH (H) position. Read the following
paragraphs closely before placing the relay in service.
CONTACT SENSING INPUT JUMPERS
BE1-CDS240 relays have eight or twelve contact sensing inputs, depending on style number, to initiate
relay actions. An external wetting voltage is required for the contact sensing inputs. The nominal voltage
level of the external dc source must comply with the dc power supply input voltage ranges listed in
Section 1,
General Information, Specifications.
To enhance user flexibility, the BE1-CDS240 uses wide
range AC/DC power supplies that cover several common control voltages. The contact sensing input
circuits are designed to respond to voltages at the lower end of the control voltage range while not
overheating at the high end of the range.
Energizing levels for the contact sensing inputs are jumper selectable for a minimum of approximately 5
Vdc for 24 Vdc nominal sensing voltage, 26 Vdc for 48 Vdc nominal sensing voltages, or 69 Vdc for 125
Vdc nominal sensing voltages. See Table 12-1 for the nominal turn-on voltage ranges.

Each BE1-CDS240 with a mid- or high-range power supply is delivered with the contact-sensing jumpers
set for operation in the higher end of the control voltage. If the contact sensing inputs are to be operated
at the lower end of the control voltage range, the jumpers must be installed on low (L) position.
The following paragraphs describe how to locate and remove/change the contact sensing input jumpers.
1. Remove the drawout assembly by pulling the two latches outward and sliding the assembly out of
the case. Observe all electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the drawout
assembly.
2. Locate the eight jumper terminal blocks (or 12, Option A) that are mounted on the Input/Output
Circuit Board. The Input/Output Circuit Board is the middle board in the assembly and the jumper
terminal blocks are located on the back edge on the component side of the circuit board. Each
terminal block has three pins. With the jumper as installed at the factory, one pin should be visible
when viewed from the rear of the unit. Figure 12-1 illustrates the location of the jumpers placed in
the high voltage position.
