About EC 2 AMF Relay
AMF & Engine Control Relay Type EC2:
EC2 has been designed for the control of emergency and
standby power systems. It integrates the functions of
engine start/stop relay, engine and alternator supervision
and annunciator. The relay has a user friendly MMI in the
form of a keypad and a LCD display.
The engine start/stop relay element allows the automatic
starting of relay when power fails, automatic stopping of
the engine when mains return and also the control and
interlocking of mains and DG Circuit Breakers. It also
includes delayed supervision of oil pressure switch.
Seamless Generator and Mains ChangeoverThe EC 2 AMF Relay provides automatic intervention between mains failure and generator startup, ensuring seamless power continuity. Its intelligent circuitry senses a power outage and promptly activates the generator, minimizing downtime. The integrated LED indication and robust construction guarantee ease of monitoring and operation, making it an essential component in automated power control systems.
Durable and Reliable ConstructionCrafted from high-quality ABS plastic and premium electronic components, the EC 2 AMF Relay offers both electrical and mechanical longevity. With a proven electrical life of up to 100,000 operations and a mechanical endurance of 2,000,000 cycles, it promises consistent performance in demanding environments. The IP30 enclosure secures internal components from dust and accidental contact, enhancing safety and longevity.
Flexible Installation OptionsDesigned with versatility in mind, this relay can be conveniently mounted on DIN rails or directly onto panels. Its compact sizemeasuring 122 mm in length, 72 mm in height, and 40 mm in thicknessensures it fits easily into existing control panel spaces. The white matte finish and LED indication make it both functional and visually accessible for technicians during maintenance.
