Product Information

Full details

The Eltako 22200030 is a 2-pole electromechanical switching relay designed for industrial and commercial electrical systems, offering reliable control with two normally open (NO) contacts and a 16A current rating. This device is ideal for users needing robust switching capabilities that can be easily integrated into standard DIN rail installations. A key benefit is its 100% duty cycle for continuous operation. However, it requires a 230V AC control voltage, limiting its direct use in systems with different control voltage requirements without an adapter.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the main function of the Eltako 22200030?

It serves as a 2-pole electromechanical switching relay with two normally open (NO) contacts, designed to control electrical circuits with a 16A current rating and 230V AC control voltage.

Can this relay be used with DC control voltage?

No, this specific model (22200030) is designed for 230V AC control voltage only. Other Eltako models, like the ER12DX-UC, support universal voltage (UC) including DC.

What is the maximum load this relay can handle?

It can handle a maximum switching current of 16A for AC-1 loads (resistive) at 250V AC. For inductive loads with a power factor of 0.6 (cos phi = 0.6), the maximum switching current is 10A.

How is the relay mounted?

The relay is designed for mounting on a standard 35mm DIN rail (DIN-EN 60715 TH35).

What does '100% Duty Cycle' mean for this relay?

It means the relay is designed for continuous operation at its rated load without the need for a rest period, ensuring consistent performance in demanding applications.

Does the relay have a manual override switch?

Yes, the Eltako 22200030 features manual actuation, allowing you to control the relay's state directly and check its switch position.

What is the width of this relay module on a DIN rail?

The relay module is 1 module wide, which corresponds to 18mm.

Troubleshooting

Relay does not switch ON when control voltage is applied.

Verify the control voltage is exactly 230V AC and supplied to the correct terminals. Check if the contacts are physically obstructed or damaged. Ensure the load connected does not exceed the 16A rating.

Relay does not switch OFF.

Confirm that the control voltage is removed. Check for any unintended voltage sources or short circuits in the control wiring. Inspect contacts for welding or damage.

Overheating during operation.

Ensure the connected load is within the 16A rating for resistive loads and 10A for inductive loads (cos phi = 0.6). Verify proper ventilation around the relay and that it is not overloaded.

Relay clicks but does not make contact.

This could indicate damaged internal contacts. Check for a 3mm contact gap. If contacts are damaged, the relay may need replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reliable switching for 16A loads.
  • Easy DIN rail mounting saves installation time.
  • Continuous operation with 100% duty cycle.
  • Clear manual control and status indication.
  • Compact design saves space on electrical panels.

Cons

  • Requires a specific 230V AC control voltage.
  • Only offers normally open (NO) contacts.
  • Not suitable for DC control circuits without modification.
  • Installation may require electrical expertise.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the power supply to the control circuit is de-energized.
  2. Mount the relay securely onto a standard 35mm DIN rail (DIN-EN 60715 TH35).
  3. Connect the control voltage to the appropriate terminals (230V AC).
  4. Wire the load circuits to the two normally open (NO) contacts and the common terminal.
  5. Verify all connections before re-energizing the system.

Compatibility:

  • The relay is designed for use with a 230V AC nominal voltage and a 50-60Hz control voltage frequency.
  • It is compatible with standard relay socket combos for Eltako R12 series.
  • Maximum switching current is 16A (AC-1, 250V), with a reduced rating of 10A for inductive loads (cos phi = 0.6).
  • It is pin-compatible with other Eltako relays like ER12DX-UC, ER12DX/110-240V, ER12-200-UC, ER12-110-UC, and ER12-100-230V, offering upgrade or replacement options.

Care:

  • Keep the relay clean and free from dust and debris.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation around the relay.
  • Periodically check electrical connections for tightness.
  • Clean the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid solvents.
