3.1.4
Binary Input and Output Module
There are four types of binary input and output module (IO module): These modules are used
depending on the model (see Section 3.1.1).
3.1.4.1
IO1 Module
IO1 provides a DC/DC converter, binary inputs and binary outputs for tripping.
As shown in Figure 3.1.4.1, the IO1 module incorporates a DC/DC converter, 15 photo-coupler
circuits (BI) for binary input signals and 6 auxiliary relays (TP-A1 to TP-C2) dedicated to the
circuit breaker tripping command.
The input voltage rating of the DC/DC converter is 24V, 48V, 110V/125V or 220V/250V. The
normal range of input voltage is −20% to +20%.
The six or three tripping command auxiliary relays are the high-speed operation type and have
one normally open output contact.
