The
Schneider Electric RM22TA33 is a
3-phase control relay from the Harmony control relay series, specifically designed for monitoring three-phase power networks in the voltage range of 380 to 480 V AC. It is used for continuous monitoring of power quality and detects critical disturbances such as
phase sequence,
phase failure, and
phase asymmetry. Detection occurs via a measurement cycle of up to 150 ms, measured as true RMS value, ensuring reliable detection of rapidly changing voltage conditions. The asymmetry threshold is adjustable within a range of 5 to 15 % of the selected nominal voltage, with an adjustment accuracy of ±10 % of the range. The voltage detection threshold is below 100 V AC, ensuring safe response to voltage dips. Measurement accuracy is specified as less than 1 % over the entire range under voltage fluctuations and less than 0.05 %/°C under temperature fluctuations, enabling high reliability under varying operating conditions.
Applications
The relay is designed for industrial applications where power quality is critical for the safe operation of machines and systems. It is used in production plants, pump stations, air conditioning systems, and other installations that rely on stable three-phase power supply. Monitoring of phase sequence prevents incorrect motor operation, while detection of phase failure and asymmetry protects electrical equipment from damage. The integrated time delay function, adjustable from 0.1 to 30 seconds with an accuracy of ±10 % of the full scale value, allows differentiated response to short-term disturbances, avoiding unnecessary shutdowns.
Functions and Equipment in Detail
For signaling disturbances, two
relay changeover contacts are available, each rated up to 8 A. The switching capacity is 2000 VA with a maximum switching voltage of 250 V AC. The contacts are made from cadmium-free material, complying with requirements for environmentally compatible electrical devices. The electrical life is 100,000 switching cycles, and the mechanical life is 10,000,000 cycles, ensuring high operational reliability over a long period. Adjustments for the asymmetry threshold and shutdown delay are made via controls on the front side, protected under a transparent cover to prevent unintended changes. An illuminated scale pointer allows clear visibility of the settings even from a distance.
Technology Explained Simply
The relay is powered from the measurement circuit, with the rated voltage being battery-operated and ranging from 304 to 576 V AC. The frequency of the supply voltage is 50 to 60 Hz ±10 %. Power consumption is 15 VA at 480 V AC and 60 Hz. The reset time is 1500 ms at maximum voltage, indicating the time required to return to normal operation after a disturbance. Connections are made via screw terminals designed for rigid conductors from 0.5 to 2.5 mm² (AWG 20–14) and flexible conductors from 0.2 to 1.5 mm² (AWG 24–16). The torque specification is between 0.6 and 1 Nm to ensure a secure connection.
Compatibility and Accessories
The device is designed for mounting on a 35 mm DIN rail, enabling easy integration into existing enclosures. It is equipped with a front-mounted diagnostic switch that allows deactivation of the output relays for testing the entire system. Closing the transparent cover automatically resets the diagnostic switch. Status indication is provided by three LEDs: a yellow LED indicates relay status (ON), a green LED indicates power status (ON). The protection rating is IP20 at terminals, IP40 at the enclosure, and IP50 at the front plate, providing protection against contact and limited protection against dust and splashing water. The operating ambient temperature ranges from -20 to 50 °C at 60 Hz and -20 to 60 °C at 50 Hz. Relative humidity is 93 to 97 % at 25 to 55 °C. The device complies with IEC 60255-1 and is certified with CE, UL, CSA, RCM, EAC, CCC, and GL. The overvoltage category III and pollution degree 3 meet requirements for industrial applications. The dielectric test voltage is 2.5 kV/1 min AC 50 Hz, and the insulation resistance is >100 MΩ at 500 V DC. Mounting is on a 35 mm DIN rail; width is 22.5 mm, height 90 mm, and depth 73 mm. The product weight is 0.095 kg.
Mounting and Installation
Mounting is on a standard 35 mm DIN rail, commonly found in enclosures and distributions. The terminals are designed for various conductor cross-sections, with torque specifications between 0.6 and 1 Nm. The screw terminals ensure a secure and durable connection. The front plate is fitted with a transparent cover that protects the controls while allowing visibility of the settings. The LED indicators on the front enable quick visual inspection of the operating status.
Operational Advantages
The RM22TA33 offers high reliability through precise measurements and long service life. Adjustable parameters allow individual adaptation to specific system requirements. The integrated diagnostic function simplifies maintenance and troubleshooting. Clear status indication via LEDs and visible adjustment of potentiometers improve usability. Mounting on the DIN rail and compact form factor of 22.5 mm width enable flexible integration into existing control systems. Certifications and compliance with standards ensure use in various markets and industries.
