General Specifications: Devices operate in impulse and continuous modes, withstand rated impulse voltage, and comply with IEC standards for vibration and climate resistance.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Devices are protected against electrostatic discharge, high-frequency irradiation, fast transients, and surge voltages.
Protection and Construction: Housing has IP 40 protection, terminals IP 20, and is made of thermoplastic with V0 behavior.
Electrical Connections: Terminal designation follows EN standards, supporting fixed screw terminals with specified wire sizes and stripping lengths.
Approvals and Standards: Devices comply with IEC/EN standards, ensuring reliability and safety in electrical installations.
Product Variants: Includes switching relays with specific contact configurations and dimensions, such as IK 8701.01 and IK 8701.02.
Priority Relay IK 8715: Manages electrical systems with insufficient wire cross-sections, reducing connection fees, suitable for residential systems.
Stepping Switch IK 8830: Used for switching blind motors and lamp groups, operating on impulse mode.
Buzzer IK 8832: Provides audible alarms with fixed or adjustable sound frequencies.
Disconnecting Relay IK/SK 9078: Switches wires voltage-free when no consumers are connected, suitable for systems with reactive currents.
VARIMETER Mains Relay (IK 9078, SK 9078): Monitors AC voltage to detect capacitive loads, suitable for energy-saving lamps and fluorescent lamps.
Delay Modules (BA 7924, IL 7824, IN 7824): Provide delayed disconnection with testable switching status of output relays.
Compliance and Safety Standards: Components comply with international standards, ensuring safety and reliability.
Recommendations: Regular cyclic testing of safety functions is recommended, with specific configurations for different applications.
Key Data from Tables and Diagrams: Includes circuit diagrams and technical data tables with information on contact configurations, operating voltages, and switching capacities.
Critical Information: Key parameters include nominal voltage range, switching capacity, and thermal current limits, emphasizing adherence to standards and regular maintenance checks.

Installation technique Advantages of DOLD installation devices Time switches Time switches • for 3- and 4-wire connection, more flexible for electricians 4-wire connection is common for new installations with separate line routing for push buttons and lamps. 3-wire connections are only used if the number of conductors is limited. However, it does not meet the requirements of the latest version of the standard DIN VDE0100-460 and therefore it is only used in older systems for replacement purposes. • for currents up to 16 A • for glow lamp loads up to 50 mA • Save space by compact design, normally...
