GEI-28802 The relay should be mounted on a vertical surface where it will not be subjected to excessive heat, vibration, or shock, and in a location that is well lighted to facilitate periodic testing. See drawings at the back of the book for dimensions and drilling plans; these outline drawings are listed in Table IV. After the relay is mounted the contacts should be closed and released manually a few times to make sure that the moving parts are free and in alignment. One of the mounting studs or screws should be permanently grounded by a conductor not less than No. 12 B&S gage copper wire or its equivalent. CONNECT IONS The internal connections are shown on the diagrams listed in Table IV. All relays, with the exception of those having three units, are provided with shorting bars on the individual contacts, arranged so that the use of them is optional. The contacts can be shorted out or not, when the plug is removed, depending on the terminals used for the external connections. For example in Fig. 8, for the relay Type PJV11F, external connections are made to 1 2 and 9 10, if shorting bars are to be omitted. Connections are made to terminals 2 3 and 8 9 if shorting bars are to be applied. OPERATION In all types, the moving contacts are operated directly by the plunger assembly. On types that have a mechanical target, the target is lifted by a cross pin through the plunger rod. The target, when lifted, rises from behind the target shield to a position where it is visible. It latches there and must be reset by hand. Hand reset contact action is provided by connecting the plunger directly to the target lever, so that the target lever holds up the plunger assembly until the target is reset. Any desired setting within the calibrating range may be obtained by turning the armature on the plunger rod. The armature is provided with an internal locking spring which requires no manipulation. On any form of PJV relay, the number associated with any given calibrating mark on the calibrating tube is found on the nameplate. For overvoltage relays this is the value at which the relay will just pick up and close its HaII contacts if the bottom of the armature is adjusted to the calibrating mark in the de-energized position. For undervoltage relays the values are the voltages at which the relay will just drop out and open its a contacts. Jndicates Revision 6
GEI-28802 MAINTENANCE These relays are adjusted at the factory and it is advisable not to disturb the adjustments. If for any reasons they have been disturbed, the following points should be observed in restoring them. PERIODIC TESTING An operation test and an inspection of the relay at least once every six months are recommended. CONTACT CLEANING For cleaning fine silver contacts, a flexible burnishing tool should be used. This consists of a flexible strip of metal with an etched roughened surface, resembling in effect a superfine file. The polishing action is so delicate that no scratches are left, yet corroded material will be removed rapidly and thoroughly. The flexibility of the tool insures the cleaning of the actual points of contact. Fine silver contacts should not be cleaned with knives, files, or abrasive paper or cloth. Knives or files may leave scratches which increase arcing and deterioration of the contacts. Abrasive paper or cloth may leave minute particles of insulating abrasive material in the contacts, and thus prevent closing. The burnishing tool described above can be obtained from the factory. ADJUSTMENTS AND INSPECTION The normal adjustment of contacts is 3/64 inch wipe. This may be adjusted by bending the contact stops that lie between the stationary contact springs, and the ribs on the molded base. The bend should be made about 1/4 inch from the front tip of the stop, so as to obtain an exact setting more easily than it should be obtained by bending next to the base. A change in wipe on a b contact affects the pickup for a given armature setting in the de-energized position. An increase in wipe on either the a or the b contacts decreases the contact gap and increases the difference between pickup and dropout, and vice versa. The contact pressure in the fully picked up or dropped out position may be adjusted by bending the stationary contact springs near this point of attachment to the base. This adjustment may change the contact gap and contact wipe slightly. Adjustments of the contact stops within the normal range do not affect the contact pressure in the fully picked up or dropped out position, as the contact springs are separated from the stops in these positions. RENEWAL PARTS It is recommended that sufficient quantities of renewal parts be carried in stock to enable the prompt replacement of any that are worn, broken or damaged. When ordering renewal parts, address the nearest Sales Office of the General Electric Company, specifying the quantity required and describing the parts by catalog numbers as shown in renewal parts bulletin No. 3856. 7
