Important notes
Danger
The terminal strips of the test station NRA 1-3 are live during operation.
This presents the danger of electric shock!
Always cut off power supply to the equipment before mounting, removing or connect-
ing the terminal strips!
Usage for the intended purpose
Use test station NRA 1-3 only in conjunction with electrodes NRG 16-19, NRG 16-27 and NRG 16-28 for
monitoring steam traps for banking-up of condensate and loss of steam.
Safety note
The equipment must only be installed and commissioned by qualified and competent staff.
Retrofitting and maintenance work must only be performed by qualified staff who - through adequate
training - have achieved a recognised level of competence.

Explanatory Notes
Description
The measuring electrode detects banking-up of condensate and steam loss either directly in the steam
trap or in separate test chambers.
The measuring electrodes NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28 feature an additional temperature sensor for
measuring the condensate temperature.
The test station NRA 1-3 is designed for the connection of up to max. 16 measuring electrodes and a
temperature sensor for measuring the plant temperature.
The test station NRA 1-3 is also available with a CAN bus interface.
Function
The following electrodes can be used for monitoring steam traps:
Measuring electrode NRG 16-19 (conductive) for detecting banking-up of condensate or steam loss
(electrode submerged or exposed) or
Measuring electrode NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28 for detecting steam loss (conductive) and
banking-up of condensate by measuring the condensate temperature by means of an integrated
temperature sensor Pt 1000.
Three LEDs indicate banking-up of condensate, steam loss and malfunction in measuring electrode
(cable disruption, short circuit) and a three-digit seven-segment display shows the number of the faulty
steam trap. If more than one steam trap are defective the numbers of the faulty traps are indicated one
after another.
If banking-up of condensate, steam loss or malfunction in measuring electrode is indicated, an output
relay for the collective alarm will also be energised.
When using the measuring electrodes NRG 16-27, NRG 16-28 you can set the switchpoint for the
message “Banking-up of condensate” as a function of the plant temperature that is detected separately
or of the temperature measured in the steam trap.
The seven-segment display indicates every 6 months the maintenance interval of the measuring
electrodes in the form of an error code.
The seven-segment display indicates also status and error messages.
For processing the measured values by a visual display unit - e. g. Spectorcontrol - the test station
NRA 1-3 is available with a CAN bus interface. The CANopen protocol is used for data exchange. The
electronic address (node ID) identifies the test station.

Test station NRA 1-3a
The housing of the test station NRA 1-3a is designed for wall mounting. The four fixing holes are
accessible after opening the base part. For this purpose use a screwdriver with a broad blade to lever
the hinge out of the slot on the left side Fig. 2.
Then use suitable screws and wall plugs to fix the rear cover.
Installation
Note
Test station NRA 1-3a
After mounting the equipment you can
connect the measuring electrodes / temperature sensor
set the operating mode and the number of the measuring channels (see “Commissioning”)
in a single operation with the base part open. Then close the base part and lock the left hinge.
Test station NRA 1-3e
The housing of the test station NRA 1-3e is designed for panel mounting, panel cut-out:
236 x 151 mm. Place the equipment into the cut-out of the panel.
To unlock the hinge and swing the front panel open use a broad blade screwdriver to lever the front
panel out of the frame. Then turn the four screws for the tensioning clamps to the right until the
housing is firmly fixed in the panel cut-out, Fig. 3.
