Check  that  the  a u xili a ry  circuits  function  as  designed  and  that  the  reset; 

�echanisms  function  pro perly. 

CALIBRATION  PROCEDURE 

The  IRT  relays  have  been  calibrated  at  the  facto ry  and  the  c alibration  settings 

should  not  require  any  a dditional  adjustment. 

Recalibration  should  be  considered 

only  after  all  of  the  checks ,  tests  and  servicing  notes ,  includin g   cleaning  the 

temperature  selection  dial  rheostat ,  have  been  accomplished. 

If  the  relay  still 

shows  that  it  is  out  of  calibration  after  the  tests ,  checks  and  service  listed  in 
the

section  of 

this  instruction  book  have  been  completed ,  proceed  as  follows: 

1. 

Remove  all  windu p   f rom  the  induction  disk  spring  so  that  the  moving  contact  in 

the  rela xed  position  just  makes  contact  with  the  left  stationa ry  contact. 

2 .  

Wind  the  spring  counterclockwise  goo. 

The  ring  may  be  turned  by  inserting  a 

screwdriver  in  the  notches  a ro und  the  ed ge.

Set  the  adjustable  ta p  ( slide  band )  on  R2  to  a  position  at  the  center  of  the 

a djustable  range  of  the  resisto r.

5 .  

Turn  the  temperature  selection  dial  to  the  16QOC  setting. 

6. 

Apply  rated  voltage  and  f requency  to  the  o perating  circuit. 

7. 

Adjust  R1  until  the  moving  contact  just  makes  the  left  IRT  stationa ry  contact 

(IRTL ).  Tighten  the  slide  band  in  this  position.  If  the  Rl  slidin g  tap  does 

not  permit  this  setting  p recisely ,  a djust  the  s pring  windu p   until  this  setting
