MSM expansion modules

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides technical specifications and operational details for the MSM expansion modules, specifically the transistor and relay modules designed for the MSM product family. These modules are used to expand the output capabilities of fault annunciators.

Key Features:
  • Free assignment of output arrays to input arrays.
  • Relay and transistor outputs can be triggered in parallel to fault annunciators.
  • Relay groups available as normally closed (NC) and normally open (NO) contacts.
  • Signal and supply voltage range from 12 V to 250 V AC/DC.
  • Connection via preconfigured bus cables and DIN-rail housing.

System Description: The modules, RM16 (relay) and TM16 (transistor), are designed for DIN-rail mounting and connect to annunciators via CAN-bus. They are available in configurations with 16 NC, 16 NO, or a mix of 8 NC and 8 NO contacts. Each module forms output groups that can be freely assigned to input arrays using DIP switches.

Functionality: Outputs can be configured to follow input signals statically or dynamically, with options for acknowledgment-dependent operation. The modules do not respond to lamp tests of the fault annunciator.

Technical Data:
  • Mechanical assembly on DIN-rail TS35 with IP 20 protection class.
  • Operating temperature range: -20°C to +60°C.
  • Electromagnetic compatibility as per EN standards.
  • Relay module dimensions: 100 mm x 100 mm x 110 mm, weight approx. 0.37 kg.
  • Transistor module dimensions: 70 mm x 107 mm x 117 mm, weight approx. 0.24 kg.

Power Specifications: The relay module supports various supply voltages with specific load capacities, while the transistor module operates at 24 V DC with a maximum load of 500 mA per output.

Ordering Information: The document lists article numbers for different module configurations and provides details on compatible bus cables for connecting modules to fault annunciators.

Compatibility and Updates: Full functionality of transistor modules is guaranteed with specific versions of BSM or relay modules. An update service is available for older devices.

General system description For different application cases, e.g. for providing PCS-contacts or control of a mosaiq, it is necessary to enlarge annuciators from the MSM-product family with additional outputs. Therefore relay-modules RM16 and transistor modules TM16 were developed. Mountable on DIN-rail the modules are connected to the annuciator via CAN-bus. RM 16 The modules are delivered in the three following equipment configurations of relays: • 16 normally closed contacts (NC) • 16 normally open contacts (NO) • 8 NC- / 8 NO-contacts There is only one variant delivered with plus-switching...
