Replacement RM-10 by RM-11 W26 WIT-S 22.09.05 I-W26.0031.GB 507 00 1/3

Replacing Relay Module RM-10 by Relay

Module RM-11 on W26 engines
1 General
For W26 engines a new generation of Relay Modules, RM-11, is available now with
improved protection and improved functionality in comparison with RM10. The new
module has identical terminal numbers, terminal locations and physical dimensions.
Part no. RM-10: 5160037; Part no. RM-11: 5160037.

2 Improved protection:
More “user-safe” and user friendly:
Ø Short circuit proof inputs/outputs
Ø Fuses in vertical position
Ø Cover removable without disconnecting the connectors
Improved EMC-immunity:
Ø Additional filters on internal supply
Ø Additional filters on solenoid outputs
Ø Additional filters in speed measuring circuit
Ø Analogue output 4-20 mA
Ø Rest with latching relays
Ø Enhanced speed pulse output stage
Ø Electronics have been made more logically and straight-forward

3 Improved functions:
Ø Short-circuit LED-indication and alarm
Ø Speed pulse LED-indication
Ø Automatic shutdown rest at power-ON
Ø Adjustable Local stop activation time
Ø Cable supervision on emergency stop circuit
Ø Offset adjustment for analogue speed signal
Ø Resetable Local stop
Ø Prevention of lube oil shutdown after other shutdowns
Ø LED-indication for MCU +12 VDC
Ø Selectable Overspeed shutdown, latching or no-latching
Ø By-pass of Overspeed shutdown for test of other overspeed shutdown devices.

4 Tuning
Prior to installation RM-11 is to be tuned according to the latest RM-10 tunings of the
particular engine. Details should be available at WNSNL-S.
Tuning is to be carried out according to “Instruction of tuning of Relay Module”
9580ZT102. Actual tuning is to be recorded in “Record of tuning of Relay Module”
9590ZT105.
NOTE: Please pay attention that on RM-11 the locations of most jumpers and
potentiometers are different from those on RM-10 !

5 Replacing
For W26 0-version (diagram WECS cabinet 9510ZT103):
Ø Stop the engine
Ø Switch-OFF power to the WECS cabinet (disconnect connector C2)
Ø Disconnect all connectors to the RM-10 leaving the wires attached
Ø Loosen the fixing screws of the RM-10 and remove it from the cabinet
Ø Check of RM-10 tuning record or on RM-10 itself if a back up speed indicator of 0-10
VDC is mounted . This is the case if JP4 = on and JP5 = off.
Ø Replace the 0-10 VDC back-up speed indicator by a 4-20 mA speed indicator. (if
applicable)
Ø Mount the RM-11 and fasten its fixing screws
Ø Insert all existing connectors in their corresponding positions
Ø In case no wiring is connected to R7/R8 but a resistor of 100kohm, then this resistor
has to be replaced by a resistor 10 kohm.
Ø Mount a resistor of 10 kohms-¼W over the terminals of the remote emergency stop
button or contact for wire break monitoring of the Normally Open Emergency stop
circuit.
Ø Replace resistor in connector at PSZ201.2
Remove resistor value 100 kohm and mount resistor value 10 kohm.
Ø Switch-ON power to the WECS cabinet (reconnect connector C2)
Ø The engine can be started again

For W26 A-version (diagram WECS cabinet 9510ZT216, .221, .226 or .241):
Ø Stop the engine
Ø Switch-OFF power to the WECS cabinet (disconnect connector X3)
Ø Disconnect all connectors to the RM-10 leaving the wires attached
Ø Loosen the fixing screws of the RM-10 and remove it from the cabinet
Ø Mount the RM-11 and fasten its fixing screws
Ø Insert all existing connectors in their corresponding positions
Ø In case no wiring is connected to R7/R8 but a resistor of 100kohm, then this resistor
has to be replaced by a resistor 10 kohm.
Ø Mount a resistor of 10 kohms-¼W over the terminals of the remote emergency stop
button or contact for wire break monitoring of the Normally Open Emergency stop
circuit
Ø Replace resistor in connector at PSZ201.2
Remove resistor value 100 kohm and mount resistor value 10 kohm.
Ø Disconnect one of the two wires from terminal R1 (for +24 VDC supply to terminal 1 of
speed relays SS174-1 and –2; check if correct wire !) and reconnect it to terminal
P14
Ø Switch-ON power to the WECS cabinet (reconnect connector X3)
Ø The engine can be started again

Replacement RM-10 by RM-11 W26 WIT-S 22.09.05 I-W26.0031.GB 507 00 3/3

6 Applicability
Replacement is recommended for engines delivered before week 48 – 1999, in case
of failure of existing RM-10.
Engines delivered after week 48 – 1999 have RM-11 mounted as a standard.

8 Parts needed
1 pcs. Relays module RM11 spn. 5160037
3 pcs. Resistor 10kΩ/0,25 W spn. 9516007

For W26-0 version engines having 0-10VDC engine speed panelmeter

1 pcs. 4-20mA engine speed instrument spn. 5160711
On 26-0 versions the WECS cabinet can be featured with an 0-10VDC panelmeter for backup
engine speed reading.
In such case an 4-20mA panelmeter is needed as well as RM11 cannot deliver 0-10VDC for
engine speed signal

9 Remark
In case of spare relays modules and specifically in case of more W26 engines on the
same location, it has to be taken into consideration how this works out for the plant or
the ship. Because once modified for RM11, the RM10 can only be mounted again if
the above described is reversed.
