Function description
Funktionsbeschre ibung PMS s20
The insulation monitor prevents hazardous insulation faults in galvanically
separated systems. The insulation resistances are measured between the
network phases and the operating
earth. The measuring principle detects
symmetrical and asymmetrical insulation faults.
Relay outputs (K1 and K2)
K1 and K2 operate in normally energised mode. In their default state, aux-
Timing diagram
iliary contacts 11-14 and 21-24 are
closed and auxiliary contacts 11-12
and 21-22 are open. Normally energised mode is the default setting; this
setting can be changed via the menu.
Response resistance
If the insulation resistance falls below
the set response resistance R
an
ther of the two measuring circuits (R
< R
), the LED "Out 1" or "Out 2" will

light and the relay contacts will de-energise.

in ei-
Response resistance Ran1:
Auxiliary contacts 11-14 will open
and auxiliary contacts 11-12 will
close (normally energised mode).
Response resistance Ran2:
Auxiliary contacts 21-24 will open
and auxiliary contacts 21-22 will
close (normally energised mode).
Monitoring the operating earth
E
If the connection between the operating earth and the FE terminal is broken, contacts 11-12 and 21-22 will
close (normally energised mode).
Wiring
Inbetriebnahme _Isolationswäch ter
When commissioning, please note the
following:
Output contacts 11-12-14 and 21-
22-24 are auxiliary contacts (e.g. for
a display or contactor control)
Only wire the unit when the supply
voltage is switched off!
Use copper wiring.
To prevent contact welding, a fuse
should be connected before the
output contacts (see technical details).
Ensure that the cables are laid care-
fully, because an open circuit in the
measuring circuit will cause the unit
to malfunction.
Ensure there is adequate fuse pro-
tection on the connection cables at
terminals B1 and B2.

Only one insulation monitor should
be connected to galvanically connected systems.
Preparing for operation
Inbetriebnahme_Anschluss
Supply voltage UB:
– Connect the supply voltage UB
to A1/A2. The supply voltage UB
can also be taken from the
measuring circuit.
Measuring circuit (system to be
monitored):
– 2-phase system:
– Connect one phase of the moni-
tored system to the terminals
Application circuit AC
A function test involving a real earth
fault (resistance) must be carried
out in order to check that the unit is
properly connected.
B1/B2 respectively.
– 3-phase system:
– Link terminals B1/B2 and con-
nect them to the system's star
point.
Connect the output contacts in ac-
cordance with the relevant application circuit.
Function test:
– By pressing a button at terminals
Inbetriebnahme_Anwendung_Bild_1
Information given in the “Technical
details” must be followed.

or
– Pressing the rotary knob for at
least 3 seconds
