SECTION 12 • INSTALLATION

General

BE1-851 Overcurrent Protection Systems are delivered with this instruction manual and BESTCOMS™

software in a sturdy carton to prevent shipping damages. Upon receipt of the relay, check the model and

style number against the requisition and packaging list for agreement. Inspect for damage and if there is

evidence of such, immediately file a claim with the carrier and notify the Basler Electric Regional Sales

Office, your sales representative, or a sales representative at Basler Electric, Highland, Illinois.
If the relay is not installed immediately, store it in the original shipping package in a moisture and dust

free environment.

Contact-Sensing Input Jumpers

NOTE

The BE1-851 relay is delivered with the jumpers in the HIGH position. Read

the following paragraphs closely before placing the relay in service.


Four contact-sensing inputs provide external stimulus to initiate BE1-851 actions. An external wetting

voltage is required for the contact-sensing inputs. The nominal voltage level of the external dc source

must comply with the dc power supply input voltage ranges listed in Section 1, General Information,

General Specifications. To enhance user flexibility, the BE1-851 uses wide range ac/dc power supplies

that cover several common control voltages. The contact-sensing input circuits are designed to respond

to voltages at the lower end of the control voltage range while not overheating at the high end of the

range.
Energizing levels for the contact-sensing inputs are jumper selectable for a minimum of approximately

5 Vdc for 24 Vdc nominal sensing voltages, 26 Vdc for 48 Vdc nominal sensing voltages, or 69 Vdc for

125 Vdc nominal sensing voltages. See Table 12-1 for the contact-sensing turn-on voltages.

Each BE1-851 is delivered without the contact-sensing jumpers installed for operation in the higher end of

the control voltage range. If the contact-sensing inputs are to be operated at the lower end of the control

voltage range, the jumpers must be installed.
The following describes how to locate and remove/change the contact sensing input jumpers:

1. Remove the draw-out assembly by loosening the two thumbscrews and pulling the assembly out

of the case. Observe all electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handing the draw-out

assemble.

2. Locate the two jumper blocks that are mounted on the Digital Circuit Board. The Digital Circuit

Board is the middle board in the assembly and the jumper terminal blocks are located on the

component side of the circuit board. Each terminal block has two sets of pins. With the jumper as
