TYPE KC-2 H I GH SPEED OVERC U RRENT RELAY
I.L.
41 -776.2E
250-volt de type WL relay switch, or equivalent,
use the 0.2 ampere tap; for 48-volt de applications
set the unit in a tap 2 and use a Type WL relay
with a S#304C209G0 1 coil, or equivalent.
I N STALLATION
The relays should be mounted on switchboard
panels or their equivalent in a location free from
dirt, moisture, excessive vibration, and heat.
Mount the relay vertically by means of the four
mounting holes on the flange for semi-flush moun
ting or by means of the rear mounting stud or
studs for projection mounting. Either a mounting
stud or the mounting screws may be utilized for
grounding the relay. The electrical connections
may be made directly to the terminals by means of
screws for steel panel mounting or to the terminal
studs furnished with the relay for thick panel
mounting. The terminal studs may be easily
removed or inserted by locking two nuts on the
stud and then turning the proper nut with a
wrench.

MAINTENANCE
The proper adjustments to insure correct
operation of this relay have been made at the fac
tory. Upon receipt of the relay, no customer ad
justment, other than those covered under
"SETTINGS", should be required.
ACC EPTA N C E C H EC K
The following check is recommended to insure
that the relay is in proper working order.
OVERC U R RENT U NIT (I)
Cont act Gap - The gap between the
stationary and moving contact with the relay in
the de-energized position should be approximately
.020" .
The pickup of the overcurrent unit can be
checked by interting the tap screw in the desired
tap hole and applying rated tap value current. The
contact should close within ± 5% of tap value
current.
I N DI CATI N G CONTACTOR SWITCH ( I C S )
Close the main relay contacts and pass suf
ficient de current through the trip circuit to close
the contacts of the ICS. This value of current
should be not less than 1 .0 ampere nor greater
than 1 .2 amperes for the 1 ampere ICS. The
current should not be greater than the particula1
ICS tap setting being used for the 0.2-2.0 ampere
ICS. The operation indicator target should drop
freely.
The contact gap should be approximately
0.047" for the 0.2/2.0 ampere unit and 0.070" for
the 1 .0 ampere unit between the bridging moving
contact and the adjustable stationary contacts.
The bridging moving contact should touch both
stationary contacts simultaneously.
ROUTI N E MAINTENANCE
All relays should be inspected periodically and
the operation should be checked at least once
every year or at such other time intervals as may
be dictated by experience to be suitable to the par
ticular application.
All contacts should be periodically cleaned. A
contact burnisher S#1 82A836H0 1 is recommend
ed for this purpose. The use of abrasive material
for cleaning contacts is not recommended because
of the danger of embedding small particles in the
face of the soft silver and thus impairing the con
tact.
CALI B RATI O N
U se the following procedure for calibrating the
relay when taken apart for repairs or the ad
justments have been disturbed. This procedure
should not be used unless it is apparent that the
relay is not in proper working order. (See "Accep
tance Check").
OVERC U R R ENT U N IT ( I )
1 . The upper pin bearing should be screwed down
until there is approximately 1 /64" clearance
between it and the top of shaft bearing. The up
per pin bearing should then be securely locked
in position with the lock nut. The lower bearing
position is fixed and cannot be adjusted.
