Power supply
and output
relay module
To be able to operate the relay needs a secured
auxiliary voltage supply. The power supply mod-
ule forms the voltages required by the measur-
ing relay module and the auxiliary relays. The
withdrawable power supply and output relay
module is located behind the system front panel,
which is fixed by means of form cross-slotted
screws. The power supply and output relay
module contains the power supply unit, all out-
put relays, the control circuits of the output re-
lays and the electronic circuitry of the external
control inputs.
The power supply and output relay module can
be withdrawn after removing the system front

A green LED indicator U

on the system front
panel is illuminated when the power supply
module is in operation. The supervision of the
voltages supplying the electronics is placed in
the measuring module. If a secondary voltage
deviates from its rated value by more than 25
%, a selfsupervision alarm will be established.
An alarm is also received when the power sup-
ply module is withdrawn from the relay case, or
when the auxiliary power supply to the relay is
interrupted.
There are two versions of power supply and
output relay modules available. For both types,
the secondary sides and the relay configura-
tions are identical, but the input voltage ranges
differ.

The SPTU 240 R1 module can be used with both
ac and dc voltages. SPTU 48 R1 is designed for
dc supply only. The system front panel of the
relay indicates the auxiliary voltage range of the
power supply module of the relay assembly.
panel. The primary side of the power supply
module is protected with a fuse, F1, located on
the PCB of the module. The fuse size is 1 A
(slow).
The power supply unit is a transformer con-
nected, i.e. galvanically isolated primary and
secondary side, flyback-type dc/dc converter. It
forms the dc secondary voltages required by the
measuring relay module; that is +24 V,

and +8 V. The output voltages

12 V and +24 V
are stabilized in the power supply module, while
the +5 V logic voltage required by the measur-
ing relay module is formed by the stabilizer of
the relay module.
