Section 1: General information
Spring release (SR)
A spring release is recommended for electrically operated circuit
breakers, although it is an optional device (Figure 1). It remotely
closes the circuit breaker when the coil is energized by a voltage input.
When a latch check switch is installed, the closing spring must be fully
charged and the trip latch reset (not held in the tripped position) for the
SR to operate. If these two conditions are not met, the close signal
will be ignored until it is removed and re-applied (Table 1).
Figure 1. Spring Release
Latch check switch (LCS)
A latch check switch indicates when the circuit breaker is “ready to
close” (Figure 2 and Table 2).Two versions of the LCS are available:
1. Internal—The LCS wired to the spring release will not permit
activation of the spring release until the circuit breaker is fully
charged and the trip latch is reset. The LCS is supplied with two
leads and a small 2-pin connector.
2. External—The LCS used for remote indication consists of one
Form C contact wired to the circuit breaker secondary contacts for
integration into external control schemes.
Note: Wiring the LCS for remote indication directly in series with the SR
accessory is not recommended as this will override the “anti-pump” feature. The
LCS is supplied with three leads and two secondary connectors.

Step 10: Make the appropriate secondary connections as outlined
in Section 9. If necessary, bundle secondary wires using industry-
accepted wire tie practices.
ote:N If an externally wired latch check switch and a motor operator are installed
together, a simple secondary wiring change must be made. Remove the latch
check switch’s secondary connector plug as described in Section 9. Once
removed, disconnect the latch check switch’s secondary lead (#40-NF, #54-RF)
from the connector plug by inserting the terminal extraction tool (included in
the externally wired latch check switch kit) into the end of the connector plug
as shown. The tool releases the lead so it can be removed from the other end.
The connector plug can be discarded. The latch check switch’s disconnected
lead (#40-NF, #54-RF) is now reconnected into the open secondary location
in the motor operator’s connector plug. No tool is required to make this
connection. It is, however cautioned that the connector plug must be oriented
as shown in Figure 26 before making the connection. Gently push the lead into
the connector’s open spot, and it will easily connect and lock into place.

Abschnitt 1: Allgemeine Informationen
Einschaltmagnet (SR für eng. Spring Release)
Der Einsatz eines Einschaltmagneten wird in elektrisch betriebenen
Leistungsschaltern empfohlen, obwohl es ein optionales Zubehör
ist (siehe Abbildung 1). Der Einschaltmagnet schaltet den
Leistungsschalter ein, wenn die Spule des Einschaltmagneten unter
Spannung gesetzt wird. Wenn der Einschaltmagnet zusammen mit
einem Meldeschalter Einschaltbereit eingesetzt wird, dann muss
der Federspeicher ganz gespannt sein und der Schalthebel muss
zurückgesetzt sein, damit der Einschaltmagnet auslöst. Sollten diese
Bedingungen nicht erfüllt sein, dann wird das Signal zum Einschalten
ignoriert bis es zurückgesetzt und neu gegeben wird (siehe Tabelle 1).
Abbildung 1. Einschaltmagnet
Meldeschalter Einschaltbereit (LCS eng. Latch Check Switch)
Ein Meldeschalter Einschaltbereit zeigt an, wenn der Leistungsschalter
einschaltbereit ist (siehe Abbildung 2 und Tabelle 2).
1. Die interne Version des LCS wird mit dem Einschaltmagneten
verdrahtet. Es wird keine Aktivierung des Einschaltmagneten
zugelassen bis der Federkraftspeicher wieder ganz gespannt ist
und eine Überstromauslösung quittiert worden ist (Reset). Der
Meldeschalter Einschaltbereit wird mit zwei Anschlusskabeln und
einem Verbindungsstecker geliefert.
2. Der Meldeschalter Einschaltbereit für die externe Signalisierung
beinhaltet einen Wechsler, der mit den Steuerleitungsanschlüssen
des Schalters verbunden ist, um in externe Kontrollsysteme
integriert werden zu können. Der Meldeschalter Einschaltbereit
wird mit drei Anschlusskabeln und zwei Verbindungssteckern für die
Steuerleitungsanschlüsse geliefert.
nmerkung:A Von der Verkabelung des LCS für die externe Signalisierung in
Reihe mit dem Einschaltmagneten wird abgeraten, da dies das „Anti-Pump“
System des Leistungsschalters außer Kraft setzen würde.
