Hardware

The REG216 device consists of two main components, which are physically separated from each other and connected by standard prefabricated shielded cables

Connected by standard prefabricated shielded cables:

– The main system interface (CT, PT and auxiliary relays), which provides DC isolation and EMI barriers.

Isolation and EMI barrier

– Parallel bus and associated electronic units (e.g. analog inputs and data processors / for signal conditioning and processing).

The complete protection scheme consists of a relatively small number of hardware modules, allowing subsequent expansion of the electronic units and interfaces. Each device frame provides 21 rack spaces.

All hardware can be housed in a single compartment, which provides further shielding against inductive interference and physical protection against dust, etc.

All hardware can be accommodated in a single compartment, which provides further shielding from inductive interference and physical protection from dust.

The REG216 is available in 17 predefined rack configurations with a limited number of I/Os, but is equipped with the same SW library as the classic system.

Protective relays for other functions are not part of the EG216 and can be installed in compartments and interconnected with the REG216 accordingly.
