5.1. Muntà

The RIB01BDC relay is designed for screw mounting. Secure the device to a stable surface using appropriate fasteners through the mounting tabs on the enclosure.

5.2. Istruzzioni di cablaggio

The relay features pre-wired leads for power input, low-voltage dry contact input, and relay contacts. Follow the color codes carefully.

Power Input Wires (120 Vac):

• NERU: Connect to 120 Vac Line.
• BIANCU: Cunnette vi à u neutru.

These wires supply power to the relay coil. The relay consumes approximately 52mA at 120Vac when activated.

Low-Voltage Dry-Contact Input Wires (Class 2 Wiring):

• WHITE/BLUE: One side of the dry contact input.
• WHITE/RED: Other side of the dry contact input.

These wires are for the control signal. When a dry contact closure is made across these two wires, the relay will activate.

Relay Contact Wires (SPDT):

• YELLOW (COM): Common terminal for the relay contacts.
• ORANGE (N/O): Normally Open contact. This contact closes when the relay is activated.
• BLUE (N/C): Normally Closed contact. This contact opens when the relay is activated.

Connect your load to the appropriate relay contacts (COM and N/O for normally open operation, or COM and N/C for normally closed operation) based on your application requirements and the specified contact ratings.

6. Operazione

Once properly installed and wired, the RIB01BDC relay operates as follows:

• When the 120 Vac power input is connected, the relay is ready for operation.
• The relay activates when a dry contact closure is detected across the WHITE/BLUE and WHITE/RED input wires.
• Upon activation, the integrated red LED indicator on the relay enclosure will illuminate.
• When activated, the Normally Open (N/O) contact (Orange wire) will close to the Common (COM) contact (Yellow wire).
• Simultaneously, the Normally Closed (N/C) contact (Blue wire) will open from the Common (COM) contact (Yellow wire).
• When the dry contact input opens, the relay deactivates, the LED turns off, and the contacts return to their normal state (N/O opens, N/C closes).

7. Mantenimentu

The Functional Devices RIB01BDC Dry Contact Relay is designed for long-term, reliable operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks are recommended:

• Ispezione visuale: Periodically inspect the relay and its wiring for any signs of damage, loose connections, or overheating.
• Pulizia: Keep the enclosure clean and free of dust and debris. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners.
• Cundizioni Ambientali: Ensure the operating environment remains within specified temperature and humidity ranges to prevent premature failure.
• Disconnection d'energia: Always disconnect power to the relay before performing any inspection or maintenance.
