Current Limiting Relay

Part No DA1859/60

Technical Data
Simple systems need not be certified but if certification is required, a dual channel shunt diode safety barrier
can be specified on the low-current side of the relay.

 Current Limiting Relay
Part No DA1859/60

Applications
Current limiting relay reducing current to
intrinsically safe levels for protection
against sparking should a wiring fault occur.
Provides safe operation of interlocks in
Deadman and other interlock systems.
SIzes
Versions available:
• 12Vdc
• 24Vdc
Features
• Overload protection of:
- Switching current (limited to 2A)
- Relay coil (limited to 100mA)
• Resilient mounting enclosure
Options
• Dual channel shunt diode safety barrier
(if certification is required)

Specification
The Fluid Transfer Current Limiting Relay provides for the safe
operation of Interlock Systems, Deadman Systems and in some
cases automatic Recovery Tank Emptying Control Systems.

These very simple, reliable relays limit the system current to

intrinsically safe levels such that no sparking can occur if a wiring
fault develops. The relays must only be used in "simple" systems
where no energy storing potential is possible, preferably using
hermetically sealed proximity switches.

The relay is fully protected against overload by two fuses, one

limiting the switching current to 2A and the other protecting the
relay coil to 100mA. All switched inductive loads are protected
against damaging "back – EMF’s" by "quench" diodes.
