Area of application
• High-voltage or low-voltage circuit-breaker
controlled motors.
Full protection against different types of fault
• Contactor-controlled high-voltage and low-voltage
motors.
Operation inhibited at fault currents exceeding the
breaking capacity of
the contactor
• Motor drives with complicated start-up sequences.
Several methods for start-up supervision with restart
inhibit option
• Critical ExE motor drives with feed-back from motor
speed switch.
Motors with the permitted stall time shorter than the
normal start-up time

Cooling at normal load or during standstill:

When the current falls below 1.0 x l , the thermal curve A is linearly
brought down to the level of the thermal history curve B as shown in curve part C.
This corresponds to the levelling out of the hot spots in the motor.
Thereafter the cooling follows the lower curve with a time constant
equal to the heating time constant as long as the motor is running at normal load or idling.
For a motor at standstill, i.e. when the current is below 12% of l , the cooling can be expressed as:
Q=Q02 x e -t/kc x , where Q0 is the initial thermal level and kc is the cooling time multiplier.
In the equations above, the heating time constant can be substituted by 32 x t6x.
The thermal unit is supervised twice a second in the relay, giving a maximum trip time
resolution of 0.5 s.
