Electromagnetic Relays • Attracted Armature Type • Induction Disc Type • Induction Cup Type • Moving Coil Type
Hinged Attracted Armature Type relay
Shaded Pole Induction Disc Relay • Robust & reliable Construction • Fluxes displaced in space & time • Used for over current protection • Eddy currents in disc • Used for slow speed relays • Disc rotation α driving toque • Reset/pick up ratio > 95% • Brake magnet to avoid over run
Wattmetric type Induction Disc Relay • Two electromagnets • Upper and lower produce two different flux • Energised by two different sources • If energised by same source then R and X would be made different to get phased difference between fluxes
Induction Cup Relay
Induction Cup Relay • Stationary core inside rotating cup • Spindle carries arm - closes relay contacts • Spring for resetting torque • No brake magnet • Principle of Induction motor
Induction Cup Relay • Rotor is hollow cylinder (inverted cup) • Two pairs of coils produce rotating field • Cup has less inertia than disc • Interaction of rotating flux with current • Less magnetic leakage • Stationary core inside rotating cup • Spindle carries arm - closes relay contacts • Spring for resetting torque • No brake magnet • Principle of Induction motor • Torque per VA is 3 times than disc type • Operating time 0. 01 s • High torque/inertia ratio • Suitable for higher speeds of operation • Used for distance & directional relays
