TP 2 Installation Data

The TP-2 motor power sensor measures true motor power in a compact size. It fits in electrical enclosures and mounts in any direction. The sensor measures motor power through two line voltages and one current input. It provides a 4-20mA analog output proportional to measured power. The sensor capacity is selected using dip switches to match the motor size from 0.5 to 25 horsepower. Larger motors can be monitored using a current transformer with the sensor.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION – MODEL TP-2
The TP-2 senses the electical power input to a motor (horsepower). The Output is a 4-20 Milliamp LOOP POWERED analog
signal proportional to power.

VOLTAGE CAPACITY
120 Volts AC are taken from two of the phases. If the motor Select the capacity by turning one (or two) of the Dip
starter already has a 120 Volt control transformer, it can be Switches on:
used. Otherwise, install a separate transformer. It is OK if
the secondary is grounded. BE SURE TO NOTE WHICH TWO Full Scale HP
PHASES SUPPLY THE TRANSFORMER. 460 Volt (nominal) Primary

In a 120/208V three phase system, the 120V MUST come Switch HP


from a transformer connected to two of the phases. The 6 .5HP
120V phase to ground voltage cannot be used. 5 1HP
4 3HP
CURRENT 3 5HP
The current signal is taken from the REMAINING phase. Pass 2 10HP
this wire directly through the window in the TP-2. 1 15HP
1&3 20HP
It is VERY IMPORTANT that the current signal comes from 1&2 25HP
the phase that IS NOT supplying the 120 Volt control
transformer. Be extra careful when the machine has reversing • For smaller motors, take more passes or turns through
starters or multi-speed windings. If a wrong phase is used the the window. Example: Passing the wire through twice
control will either: reduces .5HP to .25HP.
• Work backwards • For larger motors use TP-2 plus Current Transformer or,
• Have reduced sensitivity use Power Cell.

TP-2 WITH CURRENT TRANSFORMER


• Set Dip Switch for 3HP
• CT 5 Amp Secondary though hole
• Full Scale HP = (Primary Volts) (CT Primary) (0.0016)
Example: 100:5 Current Transformer, 460 Volts Primary
Full Scale HP = (100) (460) (0.0016) = 73.6HP
KW=HP x .746

Full Scale HP at 460 Volts with Current Transformer


50:5 36.8HP 200:5 147HP
75:5 55.2HP 300:5 221HP
100:5 73.6HP 400:5 294HP
150:5 110HP 500:5 368HP
REMEMBER: Put the CT on the phase that is not supplying
the 120 Volt transformer.
