Pulse Isolation Relay

SPR-3E

The SSI SPR-3E Pulse Isolation Relay provides three sets of isolated, dry solid state Form C (K, Y & Z) contacts from a single field-selectable Form A or C input, all housed in a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure for complete weatherproof operation. Functionally equivalent to the SPR-3, the SPR-3E is purpose-built for outdoor installations and supplies a +13 VDC sense voltage to the sending device. It is compatible with most meters having mechanical or high or low voltage semiconductor pulse outputs.

Typical applications include interfaces between utility metering devices and customer-owned energy control systems, demand response applications, pulse recorders, and supervisory control (SCADA) system interfaces. The SPR-3E operates over a wide voltage range for maximum installation flexibility, making it well suited for both utility and industrial metering environments where outdoor or harsh-environment deployment is required.

Product Highlights

The SPR-3E is engineered to deliver reliable, noise-free pulse isolation in outdoor and demanding environments. Input filtering circuitry rejects pulses shorter than 18 ms to prevent false triggering, and built-in MOV transient protection on the solid state relay contacts eliminates the need for external suppression components. Each “K” output lead is individually fused at 1/10 amp to protect against excessive current and wiring errors. Bright red and green LED indicators provide real-time system status at a glance, eliminating the need for additional test equipment in the field.

The SPR-3E’s tough polycarbonate NEMA 4X enclosure — measuring approximately 10″ W × 11″ H × 3.51″ D — provides ample wiring room for field terminations and excellent electrical insulation. The “Euro” style terminal strip keeps all conductive parts recessed when wiring is correctly installed, protecting personnel from accidental electrical shock. An internal acrylic cover encloses all powered components for an additional layer of protection in the field.
