General description
\VAGM 22 sa standare attracted armature relay wth
seven equal seins adjustable on a plug board
‘Ae cols used with an intemally mounted bridge
rect to obtain a drop offpick up ratio ofthe order of
90%. A resistance connected in series wit the collis
tapped suitably and the taps are connected tothe plug
board to obtain seven equal settings. Acapactris
Used to serve asa fier unit forthe bridge rectifier and it
also acis as a surge suppressor for protecting the
diodes ofthe bridge rectifier against high voltage
transions
‘The de colli ited with a narmally open light duty
contact which is arranged to energise an auxiliary unit
‘whieh provides the necessary output contacts,
Type VAGM 22 isa single pole relay with its auxiliary
unit.
Technical data
Voltage ratings and settings
Relays are supplod suitable fr operation an 110 vot,
50 Hz system and have the fllowing standard setting
ranges:
Over-votage relay
‘110 - 140% adjustable in seven oqual stops
Undervoliage relay
40-80% adjustable in seven equal steps
Resetting voltages
Over-votage relay: 80% of setting voltage
Under-voliage relay: 110% of setting voltage
Operating times
Over-votage relay
0.060 second at 110% voltage eatingUnder-vltage relay:0.025 second at zero voltage.
‘These Umes are inclusive ofthe operating time ofthe
associated auxiliary unt.
Burdens (VAG coil)
Over-vottage relay:
‘Maximum burden at nominal voltage is O.9VA.
Under-votage relay:
‘Maximum burden at nominal voltage (8 relay set atthe
lowest selling) is 2.9VA.
‘Thermal rating
Overvoltage rey:
‘The VAG unit can withstand three times the setting
voltage on any sting continuously.
Under-votage relay
‘The VAG unit can withstand two times the pick-up
(resetting) voiage on any setting continuously
Accuracy
‘The over-voltage and under-votage relays conform to
Contact ratings:
‘rror cass index E 5.0 as per BS 142-1986 and 6.0 as
per Is 3231-1965,
Operation indicator
“The relays can be fited,ifrequied, with an operation
indicator on the auxiliary unit. The incicatoris hand
resel by means of a push-od protuding through the
Felay case. On te under-volage relay, a reverse
‘operation inlcatr i ited; Lo it operates on drop-off or
loss of voltage.
Contacts
Upto throe pairs of standard sel-esat contacts can ba
provided on the auxiliary unit ofthe relay in any
‘combination of Make’ and "Break, The auxiliary units
‘always energized by @ normally open ight duty contact
‘of the VAG unitin case of under-votage relay, The
‘unllary unit can be fited with blowout magnet
‘contacts aso, required, for breaking heavy or highly
inductive dc loads
‘The normal postion, regarding the contacts, Is the
‘de-energised positon.
‘The contacts ofthe auxiliary unt ofthe relay are rated as folows:-

Case and finish
Relays are supplied in single pole, metal drawout cases
sultable for ush or projection mounting an are
finishes eggshell black and tropicalises. The drawou
‘feature considerably simplifes maintenance and
permits testing to be carried out easily and quickly. A
‘cradle mounted isolating switch is provided which
automatcally isolates the trip circuit when the erable
assembly i withdrawn from the case for maintenance.
‘This prevents any inadvertent tripping of the circuit
breaker, The case can also be fited wth itches to
maintain the under-vltag tip circuits on withdrawl of
the relay unit rom the case. A iter breathers fited to
