The ABB Bailey RLM01 is a robust relay output module designed for the Bailey INFI 90 and Symphony Harmony distributed control systems (DCS). This module provides reliable dry-contact relay outputs to control high-power field devices such as motors, valves, pumps, and alarms in industrial automation applications.
Key Features
16 Form C Relay Outputs: Each channel includes normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) contacts for flexible configuration.
High Load Capacity: Supports up to 5A @ 250VAC or 30VDC per channel, enabling direct control of industrial loads.
Optical Isolation: Ensures electrical separation between the control system and field devices, protecting sensitive electronics from voltage spikes and noise.
LED Status Indicators: Each channel features LEDs for real-time monitoring of output status.
Hot-Swappable Design: Allows replacement without system shutdown in redundant configurations.
DIN-Rail Mounting: Facilitates easy installation and integration into control cabinets.
Applications
Power Generation Plants
Oil and Gas Refineries
Water Treatment Facilities
