Relay tripping may also be achieved by employing a normally open contact in parallel with the holding coil. If this scheme is used, a resistor must be provided to limit current when the normally open contact is closed.

The release consists of a spring power- storing mechanism, a latching device and an electromagnet. These elements are accommodated side-by-side in a housing (3.0), with a detachable cover and three through-holes (5.0) for fastening screws. The supply leads for the trip coil are connected to a terminal block (33.0).

The energy-storing mechanism consists of the striker pin (23.0) and its operating spring (31.0), which is mostly located inside the striker pin (23.0). When the spring is compressed, the striker pin is held by a latch (25.0), whose sloping face is forced against the appropriately shaped striker pin (23.0) by spring (27.0). The other end of the latch (25.0) is supported by a partly-milled locking pin (21.0) (refer to Figure 24: Latch details (shown CHARGED) on page 30), that pivots in the cover sheets of the magnet armature (9.0). The armature (9.0) pivots in front of the poles of the U-shaped magnet core, (1.0) and is pulled away from it by the tension spring (11.0).

If the magnet coil (7.0) of the shunt release 3AX1101 is energized by a trip signal, or if the tripping pin (15.0) is mechanically actuated, magnet armature (9.0) is swung against the pole faces.

Cancel the lock for the undervoltage release by shifting the locking screw (29) from A to B.
