Description
Product Introduction
This relay is engineered to protect three-phase AC motors from damage caused by electrical and thermal faults in harsh industrial environments. It integrates microprocessor-based control with three Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) inputs for real-time monitoring of stator, bearing, or winding temperatures, and includes a single isolated analog output for seamless integration with control systems. The device delivers advanced protection functions such as overload, short circuit, ground fault, locked rotor, and breaker failure protection, while offering precise measurement of electrical parameters to support predictive maintenance and operational efficiency. It is designed for easy installation, configuration, and integration into existing motor control centers (MCCs) and automation systems.
