Electro - Pneumatic Il: Woksyop Kejuruteraan Mekanikal Ii BDA 18301

This document provides an overview of holding circuits, latching, and relays. It defines a holding circuit as one that remains activated even after the switch is turned off due to a memory circuit or latching technique. Relays are described as electrical switches that can be indirectly actuated by another switch via a solenoid. They consist of a solenoid and contactor and have advantages like safety in handling high voltages and providing multiple outputs. Examples of different relay types are also given.

ELECTRO – PNEUMATIC Il

WOKSYOP KEJURUTERAAN MEKANIKAL II


BDA 18301

Department of Manufacturing Engineering,


Faculty of Mechanical & Manufacturing Engineering
Learning Outcomes:
After finish this task, students are able
to:
• Explain holding circuit concept correctly
• Write latching definition
• Use latching technique in designing
electro-pneumatic circuit
• Recognize and explain what is relay, its
construction and how it works
Holding Circuit
• Holding circuit means the electricity of a
circuit is remain activate although the
switch is turned OFF until the reset switch
is turn ON.
This is how they work…

Remain ON
We also call this technique as
“Latching” or “memory circuit”

This condition occur is because of


the existing an electro-mechanical
device called:

“RELAY”
WHAT IS RELAY?

• An electrical switch that can be


actuated indirectly by another
switch

(Automation, Production Systems and


Conputer Integrated Manufacturing, Mikell P.
Groover, 1987 – Prentice Hall Inc. pg 650)
A relay is a solenoid set up to actuate
switch contacts when its coil is
energized

Relay = solenoid + contactor


• Relay is used as an auto, indirect switch
which operated when electric current flows
through a “solenoid”
• Together with this solenoid in a relay is a
contactor
Relay Characteristics
• Low maintenance
• Able to switch a number of independent
circuit path
• Easily adaptable to various operating
voltages
• High operating speed- short switching
times
how does relay been constructed?
Relay advantages…
1. Safety in handling high voltage application

1 phase 3 phase
2. Many contactors, so many OUTPUTS
can be applied
relay
Some examples….

Many contactors
Power Relay
Tripping relay
how to connect????

RELAY

CONTACTOR
