For  greater  accuracy  pre-heat  the  relay  by  applying 

rated  voltage  for  approximately  one  hour  prior  to 
setting  the  sensitivity. 

The  sensitivity  adjustment  is  made  by  varying  the 
tension  of  the  spiral  spring  attached  to  the  moving 

element  assembly. 

The  spring  is  adjusted  by  placing 

a  screwdriver  or  similar  tool  into  one  of  the 
notches  located  on  the  periphery  of  the  spring 
adjuster  and  rotating  it. 

The  spring  adjuster  is 

located  on  the  underside  of  the  bridge  and  is  held 
in  place  by  a  spring  type  clamp  that  does  not  have 
to  be  loosened  prior  to  making  the  necessary 
adjustments. 

Apply  the  desired  dropout  voltage  to  the  relay  and 
adjust  the  spiral  spring  as  noted  above  until  the 

moving  contact  just  makes  with  the  right  hand 

stationary  contact. 

Adjust  the  contact  gap  for  approximately 

5/64"  (-1/64",  +0). 

Close  the  main  relay  contacts  and  check  to  see  that  the  relay 
picks  up  and  the  target  drops  between 

and 

1.2 

amperes  d-e. 

To  increase  the  pickup  current  remove  the  molded  cover  and  bend 
the  springs  out  or  away  from  the  cover. 

To  decrease  the  pickup 

current  bend  the  springs  in  toward  the  cover. 

RENEWAL  PARTS 

Repair  work  can  be  done  most  satisfactorily  at  the  factory. 

However,  interchangeable  parts  can  be  furnished  to  the 

customers  who  are  equipped  for  doing  repair  work. 

When  ordering 

parts,  always  give  the  complete  nameplate  data. 

Requirements 

The  burden  at 

120 

volts 

60 

cycles  is 

4.3 

volt-amperes. 

The  undervoltage  unit  has  a  continuous  rating  of 

132 

volts.
