1.1 How to use this manual

This manual has been designed for electrically skilled persons

working in electrical engineering and electronics!

To make it easier for you to understand and revisit certain sections of text and

instructions in the manual, we have used symbols to identify important in-

structions and information. Examples of how such symbols are used appear

below:

1.2 Intended use

The AC/DC sensitive residual current monitor RCMA421H with its measuring

current transformer WN-35BS is used to monitor earthed and resistive-

earthed systems (TN and TT systems) in which DC and AC fault currents may

occur. These systems involve loads with six-pulse bridge rectifiers or half-

wave rectifiers with smoothing, e.g. converters and chargers.

In the event of a rated residual current IΔnof 6 mA, the device will switch an

alarm relay and the associated contactor in accordance with the operating

time specified in UL943.

The warning symbol indicates a potential dangerous

situation that may result in bodily injury and/or damage

to property.

Observe the associated safety instructions.

Information intended to assist the user to make optimum

use of the product are marked with the Info symbol.

2. Safety instructions

2.1 General safety instructions

In addition to these operating instructions, the "Important safety instructions

for Bender products“, which are also included in the scope of supply, are an in-

tegral part of the device documentation.

2.2 Work activities on electrical installations

 Only skilled persons are permitted to carry out the work necessary to

install, commission and run a device or system.

 Compliance with applicable regulations governing work on electrical

installations, and with the regulations derived from and associated

with them, is mandatory. EN 50110 is of particular importance in this

regard.

 If the device is being used in a location outside the Federal Republic of

Germany, the applicable local standards and regulations must be com-

plied with. European standard EN 50110 can be used as a guide.

Failure to carry out work on electrical installations prop-

erly and correctly can put life and limb at risk!

2.3 Device-specific safety information

According to UL943 every residual current monitor and

the associated measuring current transformer is to be

tested in pairs. The relevant serial number for the trans-

former is imprinted on the enclosure of the RCMA421H.

The residual current monitor and the measuring current

transformer assigned to it may only be used or inter-

changed in pairs.

3.2 Description of function

The RCMA421H runs a device test when the power supply voltage is connect-

ed. During the start-up phase, the TRP LED lights up, the alarm LED ERR flashes

and the alarm relay switches to the alarm setting.

Once the device test has been completed successfully, the ERR alarm LED will

stop flashing, the TPD LED will go out and the alarm relay will return to the

normal setting.

Function

10 RCMA421H_D00069_00_M_XXEN/05.2014

The device will check the circuit for the presence of residual currents even dur-

ing the self test.

An external measuring current transformer (e.g. WN-35BS) is used for residual

current measurement. The actual measured value is indicated on the LCD. If

the rated residual operating current of 6 mA is exceeded, the alarm relay K2

will change to the alarm state and the TRP alarm LED will light up.

Once the alarm relay has switched, the residual current must fall to less than

the rated residual operating current.

If it does not, error code E.04 will appear on the display and the ERR alarm LED

will flash. This means that the connected contactor has not shut down the

faulty circuit.

If the residual current falls below the release value, the error will continue to

be signalled due to the permanently activated fault memory. The alarm relay

K2 will not switch back to the initial state and the TRP alarm LED will not go

out until the reset button R is pressed or the power supply voltage is interrupt-

ed.

Parameters are assigned to the device via the LCD and the control buttons on

the front panel; this function can be password-protected.

3.2.1 Transformer monitoring

The connections to the measuring current transformer are checked periodi-

cally every 10 s for short and open circuits. In the event of an error, the alarm

relay K2 will switch, the red TPD alarm LED will light up and the yellow ERR

alarm LED will flash (error codes E.01 or E.03). Once the error has been elimi-

nated, the alarm LEDs and the alarm relay will remain in the alarm state. Press-

ing the reset button R or sending a reset command via the RS-485 interface

will switch K2 back to its initial state and the alarm LEDs will go out.

3.2.2 Quick query of the rated residual operating current

When the display is in standard mode, the rated residual operating current IΔn

= 6 mA can be queried by pressing the Up or Down button (< 1.5 s). Switching

to menu mode is not necessary. Quick query mode can be exited by pressing

Enter (< 1.5 s).
