Why Choose the ABB CM-TCS.11S Temperature Monitoring Relay?
The ABB CM-TCS.11S (1SVR730740R0100) is a versatile temperature monitoring relay designed to measure and supervise temperatures from -50 to +50 °C in industrial machinery, process equipment and automation systems. Part of the ABB CM-TCS temperature monitoring relay series, it uses a PT100 resistance temperature sensor to detect temperature changes and provide reliable switching signals for heating, cooling, alarm and equipment protection applications.
This industrial temperature monitoring relay supports overtemperature monitoring, undertemperature monitoring and combined overtemperature/undertemperature monitoring. Two adjustable temperature thresholds allow the relay to respond to application-specific operating limits, while configurable output contact operation enables integration with industrial controllers, contactors and alarm circuits.
With a wide 24–240 V AC/DC control supply range, configurable relay outputs and compact 22.5 mm DIN rail-mounted construction, the ABB CM-TCS.11S provides a flexible solution for industrial temperature supervision. Its screw-terminal connections, front-mounted adjustments and visual status indication make it suitable for installation in electrical control panels and automated process systems.

Reliable Temperature Monitoring for Industrial Process Control and Automation
Industrial processes often require continuous temperature supervision to maintain operating conditions and protect equipment. Temperatures outside specified limits can affect product quality, reduce machinery performance or cause damage to temperature-sensitive components. The ABB CM-TCS.11S temperature monitoring relay provides a practical way to detect these conditions using a connected PT100 resistance temperature sensor.
The relay measures temperature by evaluating the resistance of the connected PT100 sensor. As the measured temperature changes, the sensor resistance changes in a predictable manner. The CM-TCS.11S compares the measured temperature against its two adjustable thresholds and changes its output relay state according to the selected monitoring function.
For overtemperature monitoring, the relay can signal when equipment or process temperature exceeds the configured upper limit. For undertemperature monitoring, it can identify temperatures falling below the required operating level. When configured for combined overtemperature and undertemperature monitoring, it can supervise a permitted temperature window, making it suitable for processes that must remain between defined minimum and maximum limits.
The configurable relay output arrangement allows the two change-over contacts to be used according to the selected operating mode. The relay also supports open-circuit and closed-circuit principles, enabling the switching behaviour to be adapted to the control system. Its sensor short-circuit detection provides additional diagnostic capability for the temperature measuring circuit.
The wide 24–240 V AC/DC supply range simplifies integration into different industrial control environments. Its compact DIN rail-mounted housing and screw-terminal connections support installation alongside contactors, programmable logic controllers and other automation components. The CM-TCS.11S provides monitoring and control signals; heating elements, cooling equipment and motor power circuits should be switched through appropriately rated external devices where required.
