Definitions

  • the invention relates to a circuit for monitoring an AC switch of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such circuits are used, for example, in devices for the control and monitoring of the burner and the ignition device of oil and gas firing systems and for monitoring switches for actuators, such as fuel valves and ventilation flaps, with a microprocessor evaluating the information supplied via line voltage-carrying signal lines and issuing corresponding control commands.
  • a microprocessor evaluating the information supplied via line voltage-carrying signal lines and issuing corresponding control commands.
  • switch-off capability of the switching devices that switch safety-critical loads such as a fuel valve must be checked frequently in order to be able to detect a malfunction of the switching device before a dangerous situation arises.
  • a control device for oil burners according to the preamble of claim 1 is known, in which information about the switching states of relay and sensor contacts are transmitted to a microprocessor by means of an amplifier.
  • the switching states of the relay contacts are fed via signaling lines carrying line voltage to an amplifier which is connected on the output side to an input of the microprocessor, so that the microprocessor must have a number of inputs corresponding to the number of amplifiers.
  • Isolators such as e.g. are used for the electrical isolation of the signal lines and the microprocessor.
  • Optocoupler or transmitter used. There is one isolator per signal voltage.
  • the microprocessor is programmed to perform a number of tests to determine whether a system with switched consumers is actually going through a switch-on phase in the correct way. For this purpose, signals are read in by the microprocessor and compared with setpoints. In the event of a faulty consumer status, the microprocessor switches the consumers off.
  • mains voltage-carrying signal lines are connected via optocouplers to an interrogation unit of an AC voltage detector.
  • the signal lines are each connected to the optocoupler via a low-pass filter, which consists of a resistor and a capacitor connected in series with it.
  • the switching states of the AC switches are queried and saved via the signal lines.
  • the switching states are compared with a target state - open or closed - and then a switch state signal is formed which contains at least one piece of information - error or no error - in total for all AC switches that occur.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a circuit for monitoring an AC switch with which a load can be switched to a mains voltage, which can be fed relative to the zero point of the mains voltage and whose safety-relevant components can be checked for correct functionality at any time during continuous operation of the circuit.
  • FIG. 5 shows a first extension of the circuit
  • FIG. 6 shows a second extension of the circuit
  • the circuit 1 shows a circuit 1 for monitoring an AC switch 2.
  • the circuit 1 is fed by a mains voltage U PN lying between a phase P and a zero point N.
  • the AC switch 2 can, for example, as shown in dashed lines in FIG. 1, switch a load 3 to the mains voltage Up N.
  • the AC switch 2 and the load 3 are connected in series, a connection of the AC switch 2 being connected to the phase P and a connection of the load 3 being connected to the zero point N.
  • the tap between the AC switch 2 and the load 3 is connected to an input 4 of the circuit 1.
  • the AC switch 2 can also be a switch whose position - open or closed - serves as a signal or control signal.
  • the AC switch 2 is an overtemperature switch that opens as soon as a predetermined temperature is exceeded, or that the AC switch 2 is a limit switch that opens (or closes) as soon as a device reaches a predetermined position.
  • the load 3 is simply to be imagined in FIG. 1.
  • the one connection of the AC switch 2 is thus connected to the phase P of the line voltage Up N and the other connection is connected to the input 4 of the circuit 1.
  • the circuit 1 which has the usual supply voltage connections V DD and V S s, is supplied in a known manner, for example with a voltage part formed from a diode 5, a resistor 6, a Zener diode 7 and a capacitor 8, from the voltage U PN , the supply voltage connection V S s being connected to the zero point N.
  • the supply of the circuit 1 can also on another type, for example by means of a transformer with subsequent rectification, stabilization and galvanic coupling to the zero point N.
  • the input 4 is connected via a diode 9 and a first resistor 10 to a high-resistance input 11 of a first digital module 12.
  • a second resistor 13 connects the high-impedance input 11 to an output 14 of a second digital module 15.
  • the input 11 and the output 14 of the two digital modules 12 and 15 are, as usual, connected to the supply voltage V DD and the zero point N via protective diodes 16.
  • the interrogation of the position of the alternating current switch 2 and the execution of a component test on the functionality of the components 9, 10 and 13 can be carried out in time-separated methods or by means of a common method.
  • the state of the AC switch 2 - open or closed - can be queried without checking the components by connecting the output 14 of the digital module 15 to the zero point N.
  • 2 shows for the two states AC switch 2 closed or open as a function of time t: a) the voltage curve at the input of diode 9, b) the voltage curve at the output of diode 9, c) the voltage curve at input 11 of the first digital module 12, d) the scanning pulses, e) binary signals 0 or 1 at the output 17 (FIG. 1) of the first digital module 12, which result from the scanning of the voltage present at the input 11 of the first digital module 12 with the scanning pulses.
  • the voltage curve is at the input 11 of the first digital component 12 when the AC switch 2 is closed practically rectangular and in phase with the voltage U PN .
  • the resistors 10 and 13 act as voltage dividers. With each scanning pulse, a binary signal 0 or 1 appears at the output 17 of the first digital module 12, which indicates whether the voltage at the input 11 is lower or higher than a threshold voltage U s of 2.5 V, for example, specified by the input 11.
  • the further evaluation of the sampling can take place, for example, by summing the signals 0 or 1 occurring during a certain time period, the time period being longer than half a network period. When AC switch 2 is open, this sum must be zero. When AC switch 2 is closed, this sum must on the one hand result in a finite, non-zero value, and on the other hand the values of the signal must contain both values 0 and 1 within the said time period.
  • a positive voltage is applied to the output 14 of the second digital module 15, which is greater than the threshold value voltage U s . If the resistor 13 is intact, then the voltage at the input 11 of the first digital module 12 is also greater than the threshold voltage Us. The period of time during which the positive at output 14
  • Voltage is present is greater than a network half-wave and shorter than a network full-wave.
  • a component fault occurs when the signals appearing at the output 17 of the first digital module 12 do not correspond to the expected signals, as will now be explained in more detail.
  • 3 a and 3 b show in the case of the intact or the short-circuited diode 9 again for the two states AC switch 2 closed or open in function of the time t: a) the voltage curve at the output of the diode 9, b) the Voltage curve at the output 14 of the second digital module 15, c) the voltage curve at the input 11 of the first digital module 12, d) the scanning pulses, and e) the signals at the output 17 of the first digital module 12.
  • the voltage at the input 11 of the first digital module 12 is independent of the voltage at the output 14 of the second digital module 15.
  • the signals at the output 17 of the first digital module 12 are then in phase with the voltage on Input 4 of circuit 1.
  • the voltage at the input 11 of the first digital module 12 depends only on the voltage at the output 14 of the second digital module 15 and on whether the resistor 13 is intact or interrupted. If the resistor 13 is intact, then the voltage at the output 17 of the first digital module 12 must be in phase with the voltage at the output 14 of the second digital module 15. If the resistor 13 is interrupted, then only signals 0 may appear at the output 17 of the first digital module 12.
  • the first column symbolically shows whether the AC switch 2 is open or closed and whether the diode 9 and the resistors 10 and 13 are intact or not.
  • the number N in the second column indicates how many signals with the value 1 appear at the output 17 of the first digital module 12 if there are twenty sampling pulses per full wave and if the voltage at the output 14 of the second digital module 15 during a period of time, the fourteen sampling pulses includes, above the threshold voltage U s .
  • the output 14 of the second digital module 15 normally carries the level of the zero point N, but is set to the higher frequency R at regular intervals for the duration of a single scanning pulse, at which the voltage at the input 11 of the first digital module 12 exceeds the threshold voltage U s exceeds.
  • M sampling pulses are generated and the binary samples at the output 17 of the first digital module 12 are summed up to the sum Z.
  • the diagrams show for the two states AC switch 2 closed or open as a function of time t: a) the voltage curve at the output of the diode 9, b) the voltage curve at the output 14 of the second digital module 15, c) the voltage curve at the input 11 of the first Digital module 12, d) the scanning pulses, and e) the signals at the output 17 of the first digital module 12.
  • FIG. 5 shows an extension of the circuit 1, with which several AC switches 2 can be monitored.
  • the special feature of this circuit is that the second resistors 13 are all routed to a common output 14.
  • transistor stages 18, 19 are used here.
  • FIG. 6 shows an expansion of the circuit 1 in which the input 11 of the first digital module 12 can also be switched as an output and the output 14 of the second digital module 15 can also be switched as an input.
  • the input 11 and the output 14 are thus bidirectional ports 20, 21.
  • the connection of the first resistor 10 is now connected to the first port 20 via a resistor 22 and to the second port 21 via a further resistor 23.
  • the circuit structure with respect to the ports 20, 21 is therefore symmetrical, so that the function of the ports 20, 21 - "input” or "output” - is interchangeable. Therefore, by repeating the tests, with the wiring of the two ports 20, 21 swapped as the input or output, the functionality of the digital modules 12 and 15 can also be checked.
  • the circuit 1 offers the advantage over known circuits that, when the AC switch 2 is open, capacitively coupled AC voltages are suppressed as a result of parasitic line capacitances.
  • the injected AC voltage is rectified by the diode 9.
  • the line capacitances are polarized as a result, so that the injected AC voltage is shifted by DC in terms of the peak value of the injected AC voltage.
  • the diode 9 is arranged in such a way that the injected AC voltage has a negative DC voltage component. AC voltages coupled in capacitively can therefore not influence the signals at the output 17 of the first digital module 12.
