a pyrometer 4" in diameter, connected by suitable leads to a thermo-couple, mounted in a special casing, adapted for submersion in molten type metal such as is used in various kinds of type casting machines.

MOUNTING
The instrument is equipped with a mountmay be fastened ing clamp by which it
against a vertical iron pipe that can be attached to the type casting machine or the clamp can be passed around any convenient pipe or conduit not attached to the machine, which happens to be in close proximity to it. If no pipe or conduit is available the instrument can be mounted on a simple little panel,

APPLICATION
has proved immensely superior to the glass tube thermometer, which has been ustd larjiely for checking the temperature of type metal in Linotype, Monotype and other similar type casting: equipment. The disadvantages of the glass type of thermometer for indicating the temperature on type casting machines are threefold 1. It is not usually convenient nor possible to read the glass thermometer from any distance with the result that there is always the temptation on the part of the operator to slight this highly important duty. 2. Glass thermometers are fragile and the breakage runs high even under most careful

In addition to the foregoing superiority of the FD pyrometer over the glass tube thermometer, the scale is more legible and can be read by an operator standing twelve feet away from the instrument, which means that the operator of another machine can keep his eye on the temperature of the type metal without losing time. Moreover, the FD pyrometer can be mounted at any convenient height and angle for the operator, a feature which, of course, is impossible with the class thermometer, which usually has to be lifted out of the type metal pot for a rea ding and then replaced.

Reference to the illustrations will show the pleasing appearance of these inruments and the open, well lighted and easily read scales. Our well-known black rubberoid finish has been adopted as standard after any years of experience with various finishes. It is durable and will not tarnish )r oxidize. Special finishes can be supplied at an extra charge and prices will be joted on application. Sturdy but light steel cases are standard and all instruments are dust and oisture proof. When we are advised that instruments are to be used under damp tropical conditions special precautions are taken to adapt the instruments to lose conditions.

a few of the superior qualities that a bakelite case possesses. TA instruments usually have metal bases, but bakelite bases are sometimes used, JBakelite bases will always be supplied if specified. Surface mounted metal cases, either with or without base flange as may be specified, can be furnished on special order without extra charge when called for. Flush metal or bake* lite case^ can be supplied without extra charge when specified. Type TA voltmeters have self-con* tained resistances up to and including 50 volts. For 75, 100, 150 and 300 volt instruments an external resistor in the form of a flat disc (see page 211 is supplied, such discs being supported by the studs of the instrument. For ranges over 300 volts larger forms of resistors are used, which are built in cylindrical containers, which can be secured to the switchboard or panel by appropriate screws,

TYPE FA
instruments are supplied in the surface type only and cases are of metal with our well known black rubberoid finish. Bases are of metal, strong and rigid. Front connected Type FA instruments can be supplied on special order at an extra charge. Correspondence regarding such is invited. Type FA voltmeters up to 150 volts and Type FA Wattmeters up to 150 volts have selfcontained resistors and above that separately mounted resistors are used- These resistors are
of the cylindrical type.

All instruments are dust and moisture proof. When we are advised that instruments are to be used under damp or tropical conditions special precautions are taken to adapt the instruments to those conditions.

the form of rear studs so arranged that they cannot turn and a full complement of nuts and washers is supplied. In mounting a surface instrument it is necessary to drill only the holes for the studs which studs are provided with holding nuts to secure the instrument firmly in place. A flush type instrument is held in place by means of screws in the mounting holes in the rim. The instruments are exceptionally well damped by means of a light but rigid aluminum air vane rotating in a die cast chamber.

in

Dials are of pure white bristol-board of the highest grade. Non-fading black India ink, which retains its legibility indefinitely, is used in all types. Dials with special markings will be supplied on quantity propositions without extra charge.

Glasses are free from flaws and are firmly fastened in place. SprinfTs are of phosphor-bronze, well aged to minimize zero shifting. Mechanisms are mounted on the bases in such a manner that strains and stresses on either the base or the case are not transmitted to the moving element. All Type FA instruments are regularly equipped with zero adjusters and Type TA instruments will be so equipped without extra charge on special order. Mechanisms of the ammeters and voltmeters are of the electro-magnet type and of the wattmeters of the electro-dynamometer type. See above for illustration of electro-magnet mechanism. On both Types TA and FA ammeters and voltmeters the readable portion of the scale is from about 20% of scale to full scale. Scale divisions of FA wattmeters are uniform and readings can be taken throughout the entire range. All instruments (with the exception of the 10 and 15 volt voltmeters) are accurate within of full scale value at any point on the readable portion of the scale. The 10 and 15 volt voltmeters are slightly less accurate. On special order and without extra charge any instrument will be calibrated with hi^rhest possible accuracy at any particular point, All instruments are accurate on all frequencies up to and including 133 cycles. Other details not common to all these instruments will be found in the section devoted to each particular type.

GENERAL
for all kinds of applicurrent alternating of use increasing rapidly the With and less expensive altercation^ there is an ever-increasing demand for smaller nating current measuring instruments than the regular run of portable devices that have heretofore been available. put on the market its Several years ago the ROLLEE-SMITH instruments, large numbers of which have been sold and well-known type are giving 100% satisfaction. However, there has since come up a demand for a still smaller instrument, one which is truly of "pocket size." has developed and To meet this demand the ROLLER-SMITH offers the type HTA alternating current portables shown in this Bulletin, the is a real pocket portable (see cut on HTA superseding the HA. The preceding page) and the prices are extremely low for such high quality instruments. These instruments are suitable for general testing of A. C. motor and generator circuits, light and power circuits, household appliances, etc. They are useful to electrical contractors, plant electricians, "trouble shooters," students and to schools and colleges. portable instruments comprises The ROLLER-SMITH line of Type ammeters up to and including 50 amperes and voltmeters as high as 300 volts. The ammeters can of course, be u.-^ed for higher currents by means of 5 ampere capacity m.^truments with external current transformers having suitable ratios of tran.-;f ormation.

order to combine in one instrument the ranges of several individual ones we supply voltmeters with double and triple ranges. Where multi-range ammeters are needed, we recommend 5 ampere capacity ammeters with suitable externa) current transformers. Practicall.N all these instruments are so designed so that they may be used on direct current also with good accuracy, this being particularly true of the ammeters and of the voltmeters of 150 volts and over.

DESCRIPTION
Mechanisms are of the electro-magnet type and are so mounted that
the

parts cannot get out of alignment. Pivots are hardened steel, accurately ground and polished. All in.-truments are individually calibrated. Cases are light but rigid metal with black rubberoid finish. The cases are so constructed as to be practically dust proof an<l moisture proof and, if we are advised that the instruments are to be used in tropical countries or under humid conditions, additional precautions will be taken to exclude moisture and protect the dial.

all

Connections are in the form of binding posts with non-removable tops so arranged that the binding posts cannot turn. Dials are pure white bristol board of the highest grade and the scales are (irawn in by hand m accordance with the characteristics of each instrument. Non-fadmg black India ink, which retains its legibilitv indefinitely, is used in
type?.

A multiplier used by connecting it in series with the voltage winding of the instrument ar enables the instrument to be used on a higher voltage. Each multiplier must be adjusted for use with its own particular instrumei and hence multipliers are not interchangeable. They are supplied in cylindrically-shaped cases with black composition ba> and top and with suitable binding posts. When ordered for use with a multiple range or capacitv instrument, tl: multiplier is always arranged for use with the highest range or capacitv of th instru ment.

a check, before selling them to the user or putting' them in service, is well understood.

ascertain whether the cells are sufficiently strong to give satisfactory indications on the galvanometer short circuit the "X" binding posts with a conductor of low resistance, put the plug in the No. 1 socket and rotate the dial so that the ".5" figure on the dial comes opposite the register mark. When the bat^ tery button is depressed, with the instrument :vrranged as above, the galvanometer pointer should deflect well beyond the end of the scale. If the cells are in need of replacement full scale deflection of the galvanometer pointer will not be obtained.

OPERATION

If a balance on the galinometer cannot be obtained with one comitate revolution of the dial the plug should shifted to the next socket and a revolu'>n of the dial made again if necessary. \'hen the galvanometer needle balances at ro the value of the resistance under meaurement can be read on the dial at the 'int opposite the register mark.

resistance is measured by connecting it to points XX. The plug is inserted in one of the sockets marked **blue, red, black," and the stylus tapped along the wire that runs from end to end of the scale. At a certain point there will be no deflection of the galvanometer pointer. The resistance is then read off the scale, using figures of color corresponding to the socket. If the first test indicates that a closer reading could be obtained with another range, it is only necessary to change the plug to another socket and find point of no deflection as before.

TWO

POLE, INDEPENDENT ARM,

INTERLOCKED TRIP BREAKERS.

By the use of a two pole, independent arm, interlocked trip breaker it is possible to close one pole independently of the other, but upon the occurrence of an overload,
both poles trip out. The successive closing of the two poles thus insures protection against holding the line closed with an overload on. This arrangement also eliminates the need of a switch in connection with the breaker and makes for a more uniform lavout than is the case when switches and breakers are grouped together. If it is desired to have the two poles open and close simultaneously, a Free Handle rigid arm breaker should be used. All two pole, independent arm breakers, unless otherwise stated, will be supplied of the interlocked trip type which, as stated above, permits of the separate

suited particularly to such service as the protection of crane and elevator motors, whereby providing suitable limit switches the motion of the crane or car can be slopped when a pred(*termined limit of travel is reached, thus rendering it impossible to over-run the track, even if the operator fails to open his control switch in time. They are used also where the appiuatus driven by motor makes it (h^sirable to have emergency stop stations located at various points. Another wide use is in connection with reverse current relays, wherein the relay actuates the tripping circuit and opens the breaker uf)on reversal of current. See section covering reverse current relays. I'nderyoltage breakers may frequently be used instead of a shunt trip breaker to advantage, particularly where the undervoUage feature is desirable. In this arrangement the switch employed for tripping the circuit is of the normally closed type and operating it opens the undervoltlige coil circuit, which trips the breaker. There are many applications, however, where it is undesirable to have the under-voltage feature and, on these where remote tripping is desired, the shunt trip type should be used.

Shunt trip breakers (*onsist u.<u:ill\' of a standard overload breaker witli a tripping attachment inohided, which permits the breaker to be opened from some remote point. The shmit trip feature consists of a shunt coil, wliicti is conne(*ted across the hne to an appropriate normally open switch. When the switch is closed the shunt coil is energized and the breaker is opened.
windings are so proportioned that they will take the actuating current without undue heating for a short period of time but the coils are not intended to be h^ft in circuit continuously and the switch used to control the circuit must be sucli as to open itself.

all.

Overload Protection
The Type two or three
breaker is built in either pole combinations. Two overload coils are standard equipment in either case. The two and three pole breakers arc exactly the same size, the only difference being that the centre pole is omitted in the case of a two pole combination. The overload trip consists of extremely efficient electro-magnets, whose armatures may be set at the different points of calibration by means of two set screws. Breakers are calibrated from the normal rating point to a point 100^ o in excess of normal. The overload coil units are such that they may be replaced in the field, either with others of the same size, or ones of a different capacity. For example A breaker oriy:inally shipped from the factory as a 10 ampere one can be

corner screws, so that if the installer prefers having the breaker out of the case during the process of pulling in the leads, soldering on
cable lugs, etc., this can be done without any complications. The fact that the breaker proper can be removed from the case by the removal of four screws is an advantage, also, in that at any future time breakers of different capacity can be interchanged without disturbing the wiring or conduit leading to the breaker box.

Method

of Operation

Under- Voltage Protection

Either one or two under-voltage attachments can be placed on any Type EAF breaker without modifying the original structure. The under-voltage attachments are held in place by means of two screws accessible from tiie On standard three pole breakers one front. under-voltage unit is supplied, unless otherwise stated.

The Type EAF breaker is closed by pressing down an insulated handle, which projects from the right hand side of the case. Knocking the handle upwards opens the breaker. There are
no other operating knobs or devices to be manipulated. A target indicates the '*Open''
or

"Closed**

position.

Barriers
All Type EAF breakers are equipped with a barrier unit separating the arcing members from each other. This unit may be removed without tools by simply lifting up on the sides disengaging two spring of the structure, hooks. In this manner it is possible to intantly inspect the contact members and carIf

TYPE SR RELAYS
GENERAL
circuit breakers. The Type SR and instruments measuring grade high building: instrument mechanrelays differ from all other types of relays in that regular isms are used for operating the self-contained circuit opening or closing switch, thus giving a much higher degree of accuracy and a much wider range of adjustment than heretofore obtainable.

ROLLER-SMITH

relays are the product of

many

years' experience in

CONSTRUCTION OF TYPE SR RELAYS

instrument mechanism has a platinum spring contact attached to its pointer, which contact co-operates with a similar one carried by an externally adjustable pilot needle. The pilot needle is set by means of a slotted-head button, projecting from the front of the relay case. The circuit established on engagement of the contacts energizes an electro-magnet which is mounted below on the same base with the instiiiment. The switch operated by the electromagnet then effects whatever external cii'cuit change the relay is designed for.

An

USE IX CONJ UNCI ION WITH ROLLER-SMITH CIRCUIT BREAKERS

These various types of relays, while very useful for many special applications, are designed primarily for use with our under-voltage and shunt trip
types of circuit breakers.

breakers are regularly furnished with practically all styles and combinations of trips as self-contained devices, but in some instances it is necessary to have some means of securing a closer setting or a wider range of adjustment of the tripping points than is afforded by our standard types of trips, and it is for such requirements that our relays are recommended. These relays can be used with all ampere capacity breakers from the

connection with shunt trip circui breaker the underload relay affords means of readily varying the underloa tripping point over a very wide range. One application of our underload re lay would be a case where it is desired t< have a storage battery charging circui opened automatically when the curren falls (and before it reverses) to a defi nitely pre-determined value, due to failur. of supply voltage or from any other cause We would supply for this a .shunt trij "ype circuit breaker complete with under load relay and shunt, the latter corre> ponding in ampere capacity to the circuit breaker rating. The underload trippin; point could then be set anywhere between zero and 100% of the shunt rating.

TYPE SR OVER.VOLTAGE RELAYS

BREAKER OPERATED THROUGH SHUNT
COMKECTIONS OF OVERVOLTAGE RELAY AND CIRruiT
TRIP^^^^^^^^^

Over-voltage relays differ in geneyal construction from the reverse current, overload and underload relays in that the f oimer are actuated by a change of line voltage while the latter function with a change in the current. The over-voltage relay has a

voltmeter mechanism and is, of course, arranged to be connected across the line. Over-voltage relays find their chief application on circuits where the voltage is unsteady and it is necessary to safeguard against the effect of excessive voltage increase. Storage battery charging can in many cases be facilitated by using an over-voltage relay to cut off the charging current when the battery voltage rises to a predetermined value. For both purposes the main circuits are opened bv means of shunt trip circuit breakers w^ith which the relays are connected. The complete outfit would comprise a shunt trip type circuit breaker and an over-voltage relay. The over-voltage relay would be made to correspond to the Suppose, for instance, the latter is 110 volts, we would then line voltage used. supply an over-voltage relay range 0-150 volts, the tripping point of which could be adjusted to any voltage value from zero to 150 volts the relay scale being calibrated to correspond.

of the many possible applications for the Type FR relay is in connection with contact-making instruments, meters and similar devices, wdierein it is desired to have a small current operate devices re(iuiring a relatively large current. For example, the ringing of bells, lighting of lamps an<l operation of circuit breaker tripping coils, etc., are things that cannot be done directly from the contact members of contact-making instruments and meters, as the moving

By the removal of the case, which is accomplished by taking out only two screws, the interior is made accessible for inspection ami adjustments. The overall dimensions of the relay are deep (not 4" wide by 5" high by 2V4 including the studs). The relay mechanism consists of an electro-magnet having two coils (in series), which coils may be wound for either A.C. or D.C. potential. The potential may be low in value (as low as 4 volts) but on such low^ voltage relays the current consumption will be comparatively high, which, for certain applications, may be objectionable. The potential may be as high as 250 volts. On special order we can supply these relays for potentials over 250 volts, but such should be the subject of special correspondence. Approximately ,375 watt is necessary for the operation of the coils, from which can be figured the approximate current draw at a given voltaiThe electro-magnet actuates a hing armature, wdiich armature carries the moving blade of a specially constructThe switch contacts foi ed switch. direct current relays are of carbon On A.C. relays the switch construe tion is slightly different, and platinum contacts are employed.
