Schneider Electric RUW241P7 Relay Protection Module

Product Description

The SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC RUW241P7 is a relay protection module designed to safeguard relay coils operating on 110-240 volts AC. It suppresses voltage transients and back-EMF spikes generated when a relay coil de-energizes, protecting both the relay and any connected control circuitry from damage. The module is compact, measuring 1.4 x 1.4 x 0.4 inches, and installs directly into compatible RPZ and RUZ relay sockets without additional hardware. Electricians and control panel technicians install this module in industrial and commercial control circuits where coil-protection is required to meet system reliability standards.

The RUW241P7 is suited for use in relay logic panels, HVAC control systems, building automation panels, and light industrial equipment where 110-240V AC relay coils are present. It is specified for use with RPZ and RUZ series relay sockets, making it a straightforward add-on during new panel builds or retrofit service calls. Its wide coil voltage range accommodates both 110V and 240V AC circuits without requiring a separate module for each voltage level.

Key Features

• Operates across a wide 110-240V AC coil voltage range, covering both standard North American and international voltages
• Suppresses voltage transients and back-EMF on relay coil de-energization, protecting downstream control circuitry
• Plug-in installation into RPZ and RUZ series sockets requires no additional tools or wiring
• Compact form factor at 1.4 x 1.4 x 0.4 inches adds minimal footprint inside a panel enclosure
• Lightweight at 0.01 pounds, adding negligible load to relay socket assemblies

Compatibility

Designed for use with RPZ and RUZ series relay sockets as specified by the manufacturer. Verify socket series compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician or qualified controls technician. De-energize and lock out the control panel before handling relay components, following NFPA 70E electrical safety procedures. The module plugs into the relay socket alongside the relay coil terminals — confirm socket type matches RPZ or RUZ series before inserting. Do not force the module into sockets of different series, as damage to the module or socket pins may result.
