CHARACTERISTICS
The HFA54 relays are multi-contact auxiliary relays, some of them available
with the additional feature of both electric and hand reset. The hand reset feature
is accomplished with a plunger assembly installed through the transparent cover.
Some of the stationary contacts (called long wipe
)
are built with a special
offset so that when a circuit-opening contact and circuit-closing contact are used
as a pair, a make-before-break circuit results. The use of these contacts requires
an additional strong contact spring to minimize contact bounce and ensure contact
overlap. These contacts are designated as long-wipe contacts.
Unless the relays are ordered with a specific contact arrangement, they wi
11
be
shipped with six (6) circuit-closing contacts (code 60) .
However, the HFA54 D and
HFA54 K relays are available with contact code 33 only, as given in Table V.
The general characteristic of HFA54 relays are summarized in Table II.
