and BE3-74VD
INTRODUCTION
BE3 dc voltage sensing relays provide voltage monitoring
and protection for any application where dc voltage levels
are critical. Undervoltage, overvoltage, and combined
under/overvoltage units are available. BE3 dc voltage
sensing relays operate when the externally adjustable trip
point is reached. On overvoltage units, the output relay
energizes when the input signal exceeds the trip point. On
undervoltage units, the output relay de-energizes when the
input signal falls below the trip point. A red LED indicates
the state of the relay. A green LED indicates the condition of
the power supply.

OPERATION
BE3-74VH and BE3-74VL dc voltage sensing relays have
one user-adjustable control marked SET. The BE3-74VD
has two controls: UNDER SET and OVER SET. The SET
control adjusts the relay trip point. An overvoltage trip
causes the relay output to energize when the voltage rises
above the SET threshold. The overvoltage SET level is
adjustable from 40 to 120% (
±3%) of nominal input (V
nom
). An
undervoltage trip causes the relay output to de-energize
when the voltage decreases below the SET threshold. The
undervoltage SET level is adjustable from 0 to 80% (
±3%) of
nominal input.
Setting Example
A BE3-74VH relay with a nominal input rating of 100 Vdc
has the following setting:
•
SET - 80%
A trip occurs when the sensing voltage rises above 80 Vdc.
Reset occurs when the voltage falls below 75 Vdc (5% of
nominal below the setpoint).
INSTALLATION
BE3 dc voltage sensing relays are designed for mounting on
standard DIN rails that comply to DIN-EN 50022. Mounting
involves hooking the top edge of the cutout on the base of
the case over one edge of the DIN rail. The opposite side of
the cutout containing the release clip is then pushed over
the opposite side of the DIN rail. To remove or reposition the
relay, lever the release clip and move the relay as required.
BE3 relays should be installed in a dry, vibration-free
location where the ambient temperature does not exceed
the operating temperature range. Connections to the relay
should be made using wire that meets applicable codes and
is properly sized for the application. Figure 1 shows the
input connections for the BE3-74VL, BE3-74VH, and BE3-
74VD relays.
