Presentation
Vigirex relays can be used to:
pp indicate insulation drops
pp protect:
OO people against indirect contact and provide complementary protection
against direct contact
OO property against the risk of fire
OO motors
OO earthing conductors.
RH10P
The relays can be installed on DIN rails or mounting plates.
72 x 72 mm front-panel mount versions are also available.
Operation
Used together with a toroid (type A or OA) or rectangular sensor:
pp the monitoring relays trip an alarm if the earth-leakage current exceeds
the alarm threshold "I alarm" for a time greater than the delay "t alarm"
pp the protection relays trip the installation protection circuit breaker via an
MN or MX release if the earth-leakage current exceeds the fault threshold
RH21P "IDn" for a time greater than the delay "Dt".
Standards
Vigirex relays comply with the following standards:
pp IEC/EN 60755
pp IEC/EN 60947-2 annex M
pp IEC/EN 61000-4-2 to 4-6 and EN 61000-6-2
pp EN 50081-1 and CISPR11

an insulation fault becomes dangerous to life or
property.
Vigirex is a complete range providing earth-
fault protection for all types of AC installations,
including power distribution, sub-distribution
and industrial control systems. Vigirex devices
operate on TT, TNS and IT (for protection of
persons against direct contact) systems.
The relays are type A and type AC as defined by
standard IEC/EN 60947-2.
