Application
The voltage monitoring relays CM-EFS.2 are designed for use in single-phase AC and/or DC systems for the simultaneous
monitoring of over- and undervoltages as well as detection of phase loss. Depending on the configuration, one c/o (SPDT)
contact each or both c/o (SPDT) contacts in parallel can be used for the over- and undervoltage monitoring. The devices
operate over an universal range of supply voltages, provide an adjustable tripping delay and work according to the open- or
closed-circuit principle.

Operating mode
The CM-EFS.2 have 2 c/o (SPDT) contacts and include 4 measuring ranges: 3-30 V, 6-60 V, 30-300 V and 60-600 V.
The units are adjusted with front-face operating controls. The selection of: ON-delay A or OFF-delay B, open- h
or closed-circuit principle g, latching function ON f or OFF e and 2x1 c/o i or 1x2 c/o (SPDT) contacts j is
made with DIP switches. Potentiometers, with direct reading scale, allow the adjustment of the threshold valuemax (>U) for
overvoltage, the threshold valuemin (<U) for undervoltage and the tripping delay TV . The tripping delay TV is adjustable over
a range of instantaneous to a 30 s delay. The hysteresis is fixed at 5 %. Timing is displayed by a flashing green LED labelled
U/T.

Open-circuit principle h
The voltage to be monitored (measured value) is applied to terminals B-C. The control supply voltage applied to terminals
A1-A2 is displayed by the glowing green LED.
If the measured value exceeds the threshold valuemax (>U) or drops below the threshold valuemin (<U), the tripping delay TV
starts and the red LED glows (overvoltage), or flashes W (undervoltage) respectively.
Timing of TV is displayed by the flashing W green LED.
When TV is complete and the measured value still exceeds the threshold valuemax minus the fixed hysteresis (5 %) or is still
below the threshold valuemin plus the fixed hysteresis (5 %), the output relays energize and the yellow LED (relay energized)
glows.
If the measured value decreases below the threshold valuemax minus the fixed hysteresis (5 %) or exceeds the threshold
valuemin plus the fixed hysteresis (5 %), the output relays de-energize and the red and yellow LEDs turn off.
If control supply voltage is interrupted, the green LED turns off.
Closed-circuit principle g
The voltage to be monitored (measured value) is applied to terminals B-C. When control supply voltage is applied to
terminals A1-A2, the output relays energize and the green and yellow LED (relays energized) glow.
If the measured value exceeds the threshold valuemax (>U) or drops below the threshold valuemin (<U), the tripping delay TV
