PLC-RSP-230UC/21-21AU/RWF
Data Sheet
Description
The PLC-RSP-230UC/21-21AU/RWF relay module is
designed for input voltages with a nominal frequency of
16 2/3 Hz and is therefore ideal for railway applications. It
consists of a 14 mm wide basic terminal block with spring-
cage connection and a plug-in multi-layer contact relay with
two PDT contacts for small switching loads.
Rugged Miniature Relay
The heart of the PDT relay series is a rugged miniature
relay from the latest generation, equipped with features that
are lacking in most standard plug-in relays:
Operational safety with IP67-protected mechanics
Environmentally friendly, cadmium-free power contact
material for loads up to 250 V AC/2 x 6 A
Hard gold-plated contacts for small loads
–4 kV
rms
electrical isolation between coil and contact
Plug-In Bridges Save Wiring
The FBST plug-in bridge system offers a big advantage:
whether an A1 or A2 connection on the coil side or grouped
power supply at connections 11 and 21 on the contact side,
with just one "click" the continuous bridge, which can be cut
to length, or the 2-pos. bridge connector ensure quick cost-
effective, and error-free wiring, while providing maximum
clarity. This makes complicated, time-consuming loop
bridges a thing of the past.
Additional PLC Advantages
The module naturally features the usual advantages of the
PLC range:
Integrated input circuit
Relay can be quickly replaced using an engagement
lever
Safe isolation between input and output
Marking labels from the standard modular terminal
block range
Inexpensive

The PLC-ATP insulating plate must be installed for voltages greater than 250 V (L1, L2, L3) between the same terminal points on adjacent modules
(see "Accessories"). FBST 8-PLC... or FBST 500... is then used for potential bridging.

The PLC-ATP... insulating plate should be used in the following cases: always fit at the start and end of a PLC terminal strip for voltages
greater than 250 V (L1, L2, L3) between the same terminal points on adjacent modules (FBST 8-PLC... or FBST 500... can be used for
potential bridging) and for safe isolation between adjacent modules.

If the specified maximum values are exceeded, the gold coating will be damaged. In subsequent operation, the maximum values given in brackets will
apply. This can then result in reduced service life, similar to dedicated power contacts.
