OVERVIEW OF VM600
Mk2
MACHINERY PROTECTION SYSTEM (MPS) HARDWARE
2.4 RLC16
Mk2
relay module
The RLC16
Mk2
relay module panel is shown in Figure 2-4.
The RLC16
Mk2
module is an optional module that can be used with a MPC4
Mk2
+IOC4
Mk2
machinery protection and condition monitoring module in order to add additional relays to a
system (see 2.2 MPC4
Mk2
machinery protection and condition monitoring module).
Figure 2-4 illustrates the main components found on the RLC16
Mk2
module’s panel and
briefly explains their function.
As shown in Figure 2-4, the RLC16
Mk2
module has the following connectors:
• J1 connector
This 16-pin connector is used to connect:
• Outputs (contacts) for relays RL1 to RL6.
NOTE: The J3 connector is a 16-pin connector (male) that is compatible with 16-pin
MC/STF plug-in connectors (female) with screw-terminal connections.
• J2 connector
This 16-pin connector is used to connect:
• Outputs (contacts) for relays RL6 to RL11.
NOTE: The J3 connector is a 16-pin connector (male) that is compatible with 16-pin
MC/STF plug-in connectors (female) with screw-terminal connections.
• J3 connector
This 16-pin connector is used to connect:
• Outputs (contacts) for relays RL11 to RL16.
NOTE: The J3 connector is a 16-pin connector (male) that is compatible with 16-pin
MC/STF plug-in connectors (female) with screw-terminal connections.
For each RLC16
Mk2
module relay (RL1 to RL16), 1 × COM, 1 × NC and 1 × NO contact is
available on the J1, J2 and J3 connectors.
The RLC16
Mk2
module’s J1, J2 and J3 connectors are removable to simplify installation and
mounting.
