PLC-RSP…21HC/RW
Data Sheet
1Description
The 14 mm slim relay series PLC-RSP…21HC/RW has
been especially developed for railway applications and is
certified according to EN 50155. The modules available with
input voltages of 24 V, 72 V and 110 V (further voltages on
request) meet the trend towards energy, weight, and space
saving in railway technology.
1.1 Wide-range Electronics Minimize Self-heating
In contrast to other manufacturer's relay modules
PLC-RSP…21HC/RW has a special wide-range input
voltage, similar to those in switched-mode power supply
units, offering considerable advantages:
Control voltage range from 70 % to 125 % of the
nominal voltage throughout the entire temperature and
loadrange
Very low self-heating even with increased control
voltage
Wider ambient temperature range from -40 °C to
+70 °C throughout the entire control voltage and load
range
Furthermore, the modules are equipped with an RCZ filter
and surge protection on the input side, to ensure high
operational safety and resistance to interference.
Make sure you always use the latest documentation.

PLC-INTERFACE With 1 PDT Relay for Railway
Applications in Accordance With EN 50155,
High-current Version
PLC-RSP…21HC/RW
103119_en_02 PHOENIX CONTACT 2
1.2 Robust 1 PDT Relay for High Loads
The abbreviation "HC" in the designation stands for "High
Current" applications, up to 10 A continuous current. The
block contains a 16-A power relay with PDT contact
application, so that additional reserves are used if
overdimensioning occurs, e. g. with short-term overloads.
The relay is secured against vibration by a retaining bracket
and can be exchanged if it becomes worn, without removing
the wiring. The relay is sealed in accordance with degree of
protection RTII to protect the relay mechanics against
external influences such as dust.
1.3 Vibration-resistant Plug-in Bridge System
Reduces the Wiring
Another feature of the PLC series is the FBST 500 plug-in
bridge system that can be cut to any length: It can be
plugged into the control and/or contact side "with a click"
and snapped into place to ensure a vibration-free
connection. Up to 35 PLCs can be clearly connected "to the
block" within seconds, without any errors.
1.4 Additional PLC Advantages
Marking labels from the standard modular terminal
block range
Many other electromechanical relays and electronic
solid-state relays are available in the PLC series

via PLC-V8 adapter and system cable
