-series hardware
Filter networks and transient protection clamps are used in the hardware to prevent
damage caused by high peak voltage transients, radio frequency interference (RFI), and
electromagnetic interference (EMI). These protective components
can be damaged
by
application of the ANSI/IEEE C37.90 specified test voltage for a period longer than the
specified one minute.
Main processor module
The main processor module contains ports for Ethernet communications, serial RS485
communications, and IRIG-B connection.
Ethernet port
The fiber optic communication ports allow for fast and efficient communications between
relays at 100 Mbps. Optical fiber may be connected to the relay supporting a wavelength
of 1310 nm in multi-mode.
The optical fiber sizes supported are 50/125 µm and 62.5/125 µm. The fiber optic port is
designed such that the response times will not vary for any core that is 62.5 µm or less in
diameter. For optical power budgeting, splices are required every 1 km for the transmitter-
receiver pair. When splicing optical fibers, the diameter and numerical aperture of each
fiber must be the same. In order to engage or disengage the ST type connector, only a
quarter turn of the coupling is required.
DANGER
DANGER:
Observing any fiber transmitter output may cause injury to the eye!
CAUTION
CAUTION:
Ensure the dust covers are installed when the fiber is not in use. Dirty or scratched
connectors can lead to high losses on a fiber link.
RS485 port
RS485 data transmission and reception are accomplished over a single twisted-pair with
transmit and receive data alternating over the same two wires. Through the use of this
port, continuous monitoring and control from a remote computer, SCADA system or PLC is
possible.
