3B SCIENTIFIC 1000566 Relay Instruction sheet
Below you will find brief information for Relay 1000566. This relay is an event-triggered switch that allows you to switch on or off components that are electrically isolated from the experiment set-up. It is suitable for controlling light bulbs, small to medium-sized electrical motors, holding magnets, and electromagnetically operated valves. The relay is equipped with a set of contacts (1 N/C contact, 1 N/O contact, 1 change-over contact) with printed labels so that can be used as an N/C or an N/O switch. When the relay coil is inactive (when no current is flowing), the N/C contact is closed. The relay is equipped with safe potential isolation between the coil and the contacts in conformance with the VDE 160 standard. The relay can be connected to the "Digital Outputs" socket of the 3B NETlogTM equipment using the supplied mini DIN lead. It responds to digital output A. Preferably use 4-mm safety leads for the remaining electrical connections to the experiment set-up.

3B SCIENTIFIC® PHYSICS Relay 1000566 Instruction sheet 10/15 Hh 1. Safety instructions 3. Description Do not exceed the maximal values specified for the switching voltage, switching current and the power rating specified in the technical data section. This constitutes a fire hazard. Do not connect this relay to high voltage since this might break down the potential isolation. The relay is an event-triggered switch for switching on or off components that are electrically isolated from the experiment set-up. Examples of such components include light bulbs, small to medium-sized electrical motors, holding magnets and electromagnetically operated valves. The power relay box is equipped with a set of contacts (1 N/C contact, 1 N/O contact, 1 change-over contact) with printed labels so that can be used as an N/C or an N/O switch. When the relay coil is inactive (when no current is flowing), the N/C contact is closed. The switch contacts consist of high-grade silver alloy and are connected to 4-mm safety sockets. The relay is equipped with safe potential isolation between the coil and the contacts in conformance with the VDE 160 standard. 2.
