3100-30J16999BM

Power Relays, Over 2 Amps

The 3100-30J16999BM (3100) application field and working principle are specialized for controlling and regulating power relay applications that require high current circuity, typically over 2 amps. The application field covers high power loads such as motor starters, pumps, compressors, generators, HVAC systems and contactors, while the working principle is determined by the configuration of the 3100 relay. The 3100 relay has 6 to 8 pole configurations and has the ability to be configured with a neutral position to provide break-before-make transfers for 3 phase systems.

Key Features

Built to increase power system safety, the 3100 relay is designed to provide reliable operation in power relay applications with high current capability. The 3100 relay also features a wide variety of contact and coil options, making it easily adaptable to different application scenarios. It has a system voltage rating of 600 volts and withstands up to 25 amps of continuous current. The coil configurations include 3, 4, 5, or 6 pole configurations and are offered in two voltage ratings that are either AC or DC.

Power Load Applications

The 3100 relay is primarily used for high power load applications that require high current regulation and control. This includes a variety of applications such as motor starters, pumps, generators, HVAC systems, compressors, and contactors. The 3100 relay is ideal for conrtolling and regulating power in these applications as it can handle up to 25 amps of continuous current and has the ability to be configured with a neutral position.

Working Principle

The working principle of the 3100 relay is determined by its coil configuration. The 3100 relay has two primary coil configurations; 3 and 4 pole. The 3 pole configuration consists of three individual coils that are wired in a series configuration. This will allow the relay to simultaneously open or close each of the three poles. The four pole configuration has a break-before-make operation which allows it to open one connection before closing another, this prevents backfeeding and short circuits. The 5 and 6 pole configurations are also available, however these will require additional wiring or accessories to be able to work properly.

Conclusion

The 3100-30J16999BM is a powerful relay designed for applications that require high current regulation in certain power applications. It provides reliable and safe operation, which is aided by a variety of contact and coil configurations. This makes it well suited for motor starters, pumps, generators, HVAC systems, compressors, and contactors. The working principle of the 3100 relay is determined by its coil configuration, specifically for break-before-make operation required for 3 phase systems. The 3100 relay is designed for power systems and is rated for up to 25 amps of continuous current.
