Bộ Relay Helvar - 498 8 × 16 A Relay Unit

Connections

Mains/relay:

Up to 4 mm² solid or up to 2.5 mm² stranded

DALI:

0.5 mm² – 1.5 mm² solid or stranded. Max. length: 300 m @ 1.5 mm².

SDIM/DMX:

0.22 mm² – 1.5 mm² low-loss RS485 type (multistranded, twisted and shielded). Max. length: 1000 m (low-loss cable). Examples: Belden 8102 or Alpha 6222C. Note: One twisted pair for A and B (85 Ω to 100 Ω impedance), one core or twisted pair for 0 V, and shield for screen.

Cable rating:

Mains cables, relay cables and DALI cables must be mains rated.

Power

Mains supply:

100 VAC – 240 VAC (nominal) 85 VAC – 264 VAC (absolute) 45 Hz – 65 Hz

Power consumption:

2.6 W

Standby power consumption:

1.1 W

Internal losses:

2.1 W + max. 1.6 W per channel

External protection:

The mains supply must be protected at 6 A maximum. The relays must be protected by a 16 A Type C MCB maximum.

DALI consumption:

2 mA

Compliance:

Complies with DSI standard v 2.0.

Isolation:

Between every connector, with this exception: ‘SDIM 0 V’ and ‘OVR 0 V’ are not isolated from each other.

Inputs

Communication:

DALI, SDIM and DMX

Override:

Wired override input

User interface:

2 push buttons for configuration

Channels:

8 (2 channels per four-way connector)

Relay contacts:

High inrush (800 A at 200 μs), single-pole, single-throw (SPST) relay. W premake contact + AgSnO₂. Optimised for high currents.

Relay voltage:

240 VAC (400 VAC between channels)

Max. load per contact:

16 A resistive/incandescent 10 A HID (cos y = 0.6)

Number of devices:

For ballasts, quantity is limited by MCB; refer to manufacturer’s data. These are power relays and therefore not suitable for extra-low voltage operation. Where power relays are used to control contactors, make sure that snubbers are fitted
