Features
Compact design Mechanically stable Hand, self and electrically reset versions available Wide voltage range Optional operation indicator
Description
MVAA relays are voltage operated attracted armature units of compact design with a positive action and a high degree of mechanical stability. Voltage is applied to the relay coils via an internal diode bridge which enables relays to be energised from ac or dc power supplied. All relays comply with IEC 255. Figures 2 and 3 show typical diagrams of relay types MVAA 11 and MVAA 14 respectively.
Models Available
There are five versions of the MVAA relay, each with a different type of contact reset mechanism. MVAA 11 Single element relay with self reset contacts. Two element version is type MVAA 21 MVAA 12 Single element relay with a combination of self and hand reset contacts. Two element version is type MVAA 22 MVAA13 Single element relay with hand reset contacts. Two element version is type MVAA 23 MVAA 14 Single element relay with electrical reset contacts MVAA 15 Single element relay with hand and electrical reset contacts. The contacts can be reset either electrically or by hand
Application
The type MVAA is a low burden auxiliary relay which can be used where a scheme demands several contacts for event recording, alarm initiation, contact logic arrangements, etc The relay can be supplied fitted with normal duty contacts and/or with heavy duty blow-out contacts.

Contacts
Contacts are constructed from silver/copper alloy, shaped and positioned to ensure very reliable, low resistance operation. Normal duty make, break and changeover contacts and heavy duty magnetic blow-out contacts are available in various combinations. See Tables 1, 2 and 3. Heavy duty magnetic blow-out contacts are recommended for breaking heavy or highly inductive dc loads. When these are fitted, the number of contacts available may be reduced. See Table 3. Breaking capacity curves for these contacts are shown in Figure 4.

Operation Indicators
Each relay element is supplied with an optional hand reset operation indicator. The indicator consists of a mask which on operation drops to expose a broad red strip positioned diagonally on a rectangular white background.
