WDT-1
Watchdog relay that restarts devices when Modbus communication stops

- Relay contact
- 250 VAC
- Max. relay voltage
- RS485
- Modbus RTU
- 9 to 36 VDC
- Supply voltage
Overview
Where it works
WDT-1 is a controller that keeps the modules at a site working in environments with poor power quality, where voltage surges, harmonics and other anomalies on the supply lines cause failures. It has a built-in relay that operates for a programmed time when communication on the Modbus bus stops. It monitors the operation of a GWU module and runs on 9 to 36 VDC.
Mounting: 35 mm DIN rail (IEC 60715)
- Automatic switching of the relay contacts when Modbus communication stops (writing 0 to register 441)
- Automatic restart of devices that have stopped working
- Automatic switching off of the relay (for 2 seconds) at a set interval (30 to 1800 seconds)
- Periodic timer (30 to 1800 seconds) with a pulse output

Transport, warranty and maintenance
- Transport and storage
- Protect the module from shocks and avoid extreme conditions. Store it in the original packaging.
- Warranty
- Two years from the date of manufacture against manufacturing defects. Modifications to the product after the publication date of its documentation release the manufacturer from liability. The manufacturer is not responsible for typographical or other errors in the documentation.
- Maintenance
- Under normal conditions the module needs no maintenance. Light dirt comes off with a dry or slightly damp cloth; for heavier dirt use non-aggressive cleaning products. Always disconnect the power supply first, keep liquids out of the housing and reconnect the power only when the module is completely dry.
