Electromagnetic Relays

Attracted Armature Type

Induction Disc Type

Induction Cup Type

Moving Coil Type


Hinged Attracted Armature Type relay
Shaded Pole Induction Disc Relay

Robust & reliable Construction


Fluxes displaced in space & time Used for over current protection
Eddy currents in disc Used for slow speed relays
Disc rotation driving toque Reset/pick up ratio > 95%
Brake magnet to avoid over run
Wattmetric type Induction Disc Relay

Two electromagnets
Upper and lower
produce two different
flux
Energised by two
different sources
If energised by same
source then R and X
would be made different
to get phased difference
between fluxes
Induction Cup Relay
Induction Cup Relay

Stationary core inside rotating cup

Spindle carries arm - closes relay contacts

Spring for resetting torque

No brake magnet

Principle of Induction motor


Induction Cup Relay

Rotor is hollow cylinder (inverted cup)

Two pairs of coils produce rotating field

Cup has less inertia than disc

Interaction of rotating flux with current

Less magnetic leakage


Stationary core inside rotating cup
Torque per VA is 3 times than disc type
Spindle carries arm - closes relay contacts
Operating time 0.01 s
Spring for resetting torque
High torque/inertia ratio
No brake magnet
Suitable for higher speeds of operation
Principle of Induction motor
Used for distance & directional relays
